Turbelle 6025 falling apart

[Genetics]

I had purchased a turbelle 6025 and less than two months with it the brace connecting to the magnet broke apart. New one was sent and now having the same issue 8 months later. The faceplate is also no longer adhering to the motor and falls off too. This does not happen to the other 6025 I purchased later. Is there any issues with the casing on the first batch sent out of these guys?

I have two 6055s and I have noticed that the plastic for these holders become brittle over time in the water. I was sent replacements and that appears to have solved it, but I am running into an issue with one of them where the outside casing of the pump will not seat properly and so it is loose.

I am about to pull the trigger on two more of these pumps, but I have noticed that the price has gone up by over 10%, but I am not so sure that the quality has. I came over here today to see what other people were experiencing and it looks like the same ole, same ole.

my 6025 just fell apart as well, the clamp broke and the impeller clatters.
