I have had both the deltec 601 and the MTC (marine technical concept) and they are both great and easy

I would have gone with a Deltec, but the skimmer broke the bank. I went with a GEO reactor, and after a few days, I am quite satisfied. It's built VERY well; sturdy is an understatement. Dialing it in was a no brainer.

MTC pro calcium dual chamber... you will never outgrow it (maybe!) and it is simple and very efficient. rated to 700+gallons.

New Deltecs looks like they solved all the problems of the old ones, they work just Great!
PF601S is a beast !
Schuran is excellent as well.
