Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I purchased this heater for my brand new 10 gallon aquarium from my local fish store.He began selling these after Visi-therm and their stealth heaters began to not hold up.His selling feature was the price and the life-time guarantee.
Upon first introducing it to the tank, it appeared to work, but I did not have a thermometer yet, so there was no way to tell.I left it at the initial setting of 76 degrees to cycle the tank.The tank glass felt warm, so I assume it was working.After 1-1/2 weeks, I bought a digital thermometer (the same as the one in my community tank).The tank was only 73 degrees.I checked the new thermometer against the old one and they measured the same temperature within a few 1/10's of a degree.
After turning the unit up continuously throughout the evening, I could heat the 10 gallon tank no higher than 75 degrees.This heater definitely did not work.
The guarantee, if you want to call it that, is almost worthless.You must send a copy of your receipt and $10 to the manufacturer, who will then send you another unit.That's more than 1/2 the original cost.More like buying one for retail, and then getting a lifetime supply at wholesale cost.
All I want is a heater that is reliable - I'm not concerned about guarantees.Guarantees don't heat the tank - reliable heaters do.This heater has left me in a lurch.
