polar bear chillers...any good?

[technomex]

I was thinking of buying a used polar bear chiller from a fellow reefer. Are they any good?

I have heard nothing negative about them, I have had heaters and skimmers made by the same company that makes them and they were all reliable.

I have a Polar Bear CC-25 (1/4 HP). I have had it for 2 years and it works perfectly. The only strange thing is it was loud for about 6 weeks - it has been fairly quiet ever since. I have an Octopus controller and the temperature varies < .5 F since I had the chiller
