I have on and it is ok but I much prefer the Tunze Osmolator ... Only reason I have it is because I got it cheap.

I used one but it started giving me problems by timing out. I had it where it should have run 14 minutes before timing out but it didn't. I would have to disconnect the power to it to reset. When it workedit kept the water level where it was set to. I bought a ATO from Bulk Reef supply and use it now with a Aqualifter pump.

have had two and never had a single issue with either. both worked flawlessly. if it fails I'll get the tunze but just because the sensor is superior to float valves not because anything has gone wrong with the JBJ.
