Shocking to see this.....I do have a skimz skimmer and had issues with it.....but seeing the magnet rust like this is just sheer irresponsibility on part of a company...
shows the product has not been tested long term by this compnay...i am an user of the Skimz skimmer and i have had both my pumps stall and waiting for replacement impellers....Now i am pretty much really worried that the replacement impellers for these two pumps are gonna rust out like this....feeels like a time bomb...
I really wish manufacturers are more responsible and use saltwater safe materials for production of high end skimmer models...because we are trusting our beloved livestock (emotional and financial vlaue involved here) in the hands of thier equipments....
I have known this is not an one off issue and many customers are having issues with Skimz ....coupled with poor customer service....not a good thing for a brand which is trying to estabilish itslef.
I would not buy another skimz brand product ever... i only looking for a solution for the skimmer i have coz i am stuck with it. But the pictures of the rusted impellers posted is making me think otherwise....
Has anyone come acroos an alternative to replace the pumps as a whole in this skimmer with superior impellers?
I saw the videos posted on youtube with instructions on impeller change...now its just shabby to see them use some kinda cutting pliers to cut off parts of the pump....shows poor planning, research and development in the first place.
makes me feel i bought a Ferrari but a crappy 3 rd party engine under the hood
