Eheim
I actually purchased the Eheim Wet/Dry and love it.
First the priming and media change is extremely simple.
The Eheim comes with valves that lets your canister drain itself into
your tank without taking in any more water.
This way you are able to easily remove the media by the "media baskets"
The priming is simple as these same valves allow you to intake water from the tank without returning it prematurely therefore limiting the air within the canister for full priming.
More importantly the media used on the Eheim is much more efficient the bio balls.
Just one liter of Seachem's matrix or Eheims Ehfi Subtrat Pro are equivalent to 40 liters of bio balls.
The reason for this is that these two types of media are extremely porous and create more surface area than with bio balls.
So by purchasing just the "Small" wet/dry from Eheim which is filled up with 4 liters of media, it can potentially cultivate as much bacteria as 160 liters of bio balls.
It's also extremely quiet and no special plumbing required.
Here's a link on the media I chose to run in my Eheim Wet/Dry.
