Nice heater.

Installation and Operation This is a great heater, nothing fancy but sometimes that's better. Many of the problems people have is with electronic heater controllers. But these just has a simple thermostat, which is usually very reliable.


Performance vs. Expectations It keeps my tank a steady temperature. It doesn't fluctuate all over the place. Plus I have checked it with a few other thermometers and it is pretty close to what the dial says. Just as close as any other heater out there.


Value for money These are a great value for the money, and should last for many years.


Customer Support N/A


Liked about it Very easy to use, just turn the dial were you want it to be and that's it. Plus it has a decent length cord, I had some other heater once and the cord was way to short.


Didn't like It falls off of the glass with the suction cups, so I eventually wound up just laying it in my sump.

Worth the money

Installation and Operation Plug and Play! Very easy!


Performance vs. Expectations Yes, I've had no problems with the heater!


Liked about it It's adjustable to the temp you want it, very accurate for being "dial operated", and the overall design of the unit.


Didn't like Its size, its nearly the size as the 250W heater.

Good Heater - Great Warranty

General I will keep buying this brand.


Liked about it Very good, tough heater. I have 6 or 7. Most are 150W. I had 2 fail. I sent them to the distributer and within a few days I had 2 new ones. Great service.


Didn't like I don't think that the actual temperature control of the heaters (or probably any heater stock) is very good. Once I went to a controller, my temp control went from a 2-4 degree range to less than 0.5 degree range. I think the internal thermostats are probably just not super high quality.

Not bad

General Other than the temperature dial, the heaters are quite sturdy and generally reliable in my experience. Just monitor the temp with a good thermometer.

i have been told that submersible heaters can potentially leak if they are installed at an angle, so keep them horizontal or straight up.

i have always had mine horizontal, so i have never come across this issue.


Liked about it durable
non-reflective casing prevents aggressive fish from attacking their own reflection


Didn't like it has a numbered temp dial on the top, this does not seem to be very accurate. If you set it for 80 degrees you may get 75 degrees even if the water volume of the tank is appropriate for the wattage.
