Unreliable

Ordered two of these at the same time. One completely quit working after four days. The other is still working (3 weeks now), but is 3-4 degrees too low.

Already broken

The heater overall worked fine in the beginning. I got this heater on December 27, 2024, and today (January 20, 2025) I was looking at it and it has a few cracks

The heater overall worked fine in the beginning. I got this heater on December 27, 2024, and today (January 20, 2025) I was looking at it and it has a few cracks in the glass. This is very disappointing since the heater was working great and now theres a few cracks in the glass of the heater. In case anyone is wondering, I did not "rough house" this heater, I was gentle with it. Luckily, I am cycling my tank and haven't put any fish in it yet. It is just upsetting I wasted my money. Especially since it barely lasted a month and I didn't cause it to break, it just broke on its own and I must get a new heater.

Worked for 4 months

It works for four months and then stopped working out of the blue. I would not recommend wasting your money on it.

Low Quality

Bought 2 of these and they both quit working after a month and 6 weeks. They were finicky from the start, not reading temp properly and leaving the water too cold

Bought 2 of these and they both quit working after a month and 6 weeks. They were finicky from the start, not reading temp properly and leaving the water too cold. Now I'll be spending more money to replace them instead of just buying higher quality in the first place.

Works great!

Took my 40 gallon tall tank from 64 degrees to 70 in just an hour. My fish is a lot more happy now! I love that even though it cones preset, you can manually adjust

Took my 40 gallon tall tank from 64 degrees to 70 in just an hour. My fish is a lot more happy now! I love that even though it cones preset, you can manually adjust the temp setting. As well as a red indicator light that let's you know when it's running. Highly recommend!
