Deltec fluidized reactor

I'm looking to use a fluidized reactor for carbon. I have a Phosban reactor that I have Phosban in. My question is,is there a reason to spend $199 on the 1 liter Deltec fluidized reactor, or should I just get another $39 Phosban reactor and put carbon in it? I am not opposed to spending the money if there really is a substantial difference other than the slightly larger size. Thanks!

It is expensive enough to live up here - save some money and go with a second Phosban reactor.
