Anyone have experience with either of these? Both made by the same company but AquaMaxx is the new model. Is it worth buying the new one or just get a used H1 for almost half price?

Found a used one already but Im trying to decide if the new one is a better choice. Think they worked out a few issues such as a less pump noise. Collection cup has an overflow valve, etc. Probably be like $70 more for the new. Was hoping someone here had experience with these skimmers...

Installed one last week... so far so good. Started pulling stuff out almost immediately. You're right about the overflow output, it'll drip back into the skimmer body so it's not spewing out of the collection cup. Can't comment on the pump noise as I have no experience with the older models. I can certainly hear the pump, however the fans from my Nova Extreme Pro is louder.

Rick, I think the manufacturer is JNS Aquaria.
