Good
Pros
electronic chip turns the heater on/off instead of a spring that expands (glass heaters)
plastic slim instead of bulky glass
accurate temp reading matches the temp of a external controller
con
suction cup attracts a lot of dirt
pricey almost twice the cost vs regular heaters
led light never turns off always on can be annoying
Excellent heater!
I bought this heater because I don't like to use glass thermometers in my tank. I've had them break and develop condensation in as little as a few weeks of use. I liked the style of this heater and decided to give it a try. It's very solid, easy to use and holds the temperature very well. It is not as noticeable in the tank as many of the other heaters are and because of its slim size, it is easy to hide behind plants and other aquarium decor.
Revised review 06262013
This heater which worked so well has suddenly died. Fortunately I always run a backup heater on my tank so I didn't lose any fish but I am really disappointed that a heater that functioned so well initially lasted only a couple of months. Guess I'll be shopping for a different heater to replace this one.
Best Heater!
This heater is the best investment yet! It keeps the water within 0.5 degree of set temperature as advertised. I am very pleased!
