Another thing to consider is having a backup return pump.
I have 2 of the exact same pumps. That way every 6 months I swap one out for the other and can leave it soaking over night before cleaning it. Also, if a pump fails I have a backup right away. These things usually happen at 2 in the morning on a Sunday when the LFS won't be open for a day or two...

I have a few I'm most impressed with my marine land. I have had it for four years in saltwater no issues. Never cleaned once

I've been really happy with the Eheim Compact 3000 I put on my tank. It's dead silent, and great price point. When I switch it on after a water change, I have to look at the return nozzle to check that the pump is running because I can't hear it start up.

How's that jebao?
It's been quiet for you? How long have you had it? I was liking the vectra, but at less than half the price, I'm liking the idea of using a jebao and keeping a second one around in case one needs to be serviced. Or is the vectra supposed to be so rock solid that it's a non issue?

I have a Waveline DC6000 and a Eheim 1260 running my 125. Both of them are super quiet. The DC6000 makes a bit of noise when ramping up but is quiet when at speed. Quiet to ME at least!
