Protein skimmer: Skimz Oval 203 or Aquamaxx Cone S Q3

I think I have narrowed my new skimmer selection down either the skimz oval 203 skimmer or the aquamaxx cone s q3 skimmer. Can anyone comment on either one of these skimmers? I have a 180 gallon sps dominant tank.
Thanks

I got the skimz oval 283 and love it... Won't get another skimmer, personally.

Ordered the skimz oval 203 today so hopefully it's a good skimmer.

Im ordering the Skimz leopard in a few days for my new 215gal tank. Trying to figure out which one. The leopards have the Italian made motors I believe

Any updates on the Skimz sv203 oval? I'm doing some research and was looking at the NYOS and RLSS, but then came across the Skimz sv203 and haven't seen a lot of reviews.

Thanks!
