I have two Tunze 6105's and one Jebao WP-40. I don't notice any difference in noise, reliability or flow. The Jebao has been going strong for a few years, I forget how long. Nothing wrong with these powerheads and no reason to spend big $$$ on the more expensive name brands IMO.

Best bang for your buck is jebao for sure. Good controlability as well. You can buy 3-4 of them for the price of one vortec. I ran 2 WP40's for 2 years without cleaning them once with no issues. Now I run rw15's, rw20's and wp25's on a combo of systems and must say I couldn't be happier. And if one breaks, it dosnt break the bank to replace a part or even the whole thing.
Basically if you have the money to burn, get a vortec. But if you want a good powerhead for your money, go with the jebao.

Tunze have a long history of being one if the best.
Vortech have a pretty solid reputation on a unique style of powerhead. Maxspect Gyre are newer but very unique style that is pretty nice. If you have an Apex controller, the company put out some new powerheads recently that are supposed to be really good that work good with the controller. I have 1 Jebao out of 5 that I have purchased over the last 3 years. I'm not the only 1 with this kind of results from Jebao. Some have better luck.
