I tried the Rena Filstar XP3. It's ok, but it seems to have some drawbacks. I do like the quietness. I had to fill it all the way up from that stupid little funnel. I was afraid to turn it on partially full for fear it might burn out the motor before getting full. I like how powerful it is. One thing that bothers me is that it runs with about an inch of air head in the top and I can't figure any way to get the rest of the air out.
I had an opportunity to try a Magnum 350. I didn't like it at all. It was much less professionally designed, and it cavitated the water in the hoses. I sold it off and am now looking for another filter to try. It sure would be nice to hear peoples' personal experiences with different canister filters and the pros and cons they have.
