I liked this. (updated)
Update 7/12/2017:  I wanted to use this last night but it stopped working.  Last time I used it was 2 weeks ago.  Tonight it wouldn't turn on at all.  I changed the batteries and even tried using an external power supply.<br /><br />I had very high hopes for this item.  But I changed my rating from a 5 to a 1.<br /><br />The item itself has a cheap look to it..  Almost reminds me of the old bakelite plastic of yesteryear.  While it's not what one would call sophisticated, it does the job admirably.<br /><br />I have a 110 gallon tank that's nearly 3 feet deep and this reaches the sandbed easily.  It's not a high power motor, but then again, you don't want something with that much force.<br /><br />Detritus, plant matter, uneaten food, droppings and even discarded crayfish shells were easily vacuumed up.<br /><br />If there's one feature that I'd like to see on this is a vacuum hose so I can get into hard to reach areas that a 30&#34; wand cannot.
