EHEIM and Mag Drive are must haves. Mine have been going strong for years.

Have one Eheim Heater that has lasted for at years, and has outlasted, without maintenance, all other heaters.

Eheim 2028 pro 7 years old and still running as quiet as ever.
Fluval 404 about 6 years old and still running.
Emperor 280 power filter. My very first filter at around 7-8 years old.
Ebo Jager heater. I own a bunch but the oldest is around 7-8 years old and still working.
I also have eclipse hood 1 and 3 for about 5 years now. The door hinges broke but the main filter and lights still work.

Whisper C hob filter (20 gallon model) ~ 20 years

Aquaclear 500/110 ~ 5-7 years, came with the corner of the cover broken off during shipping, crazy glued, the plastic is a bit thin and fragile, otherwise has worked great

who makes long lasting air pumps?
