This last time I pulled it apart, the motor shaft was too corroded to take the new seal kit (which I had on hand for this eventuallity). Personally I wouldn't reccomend them too highly.

So if you do buy one and want a marine seal kit for it, I have one.
Really? I had a reeflo pump and thought it sounded like a turbine compared to my Dolphin, mind you my dolphin sounded pretty loud compared to my iwaki....so who knows
