Of all the components required to put a tank together, I find the one item failing more frequent than any other would probably be the heater....
I bought 2 heaters yesterday..... Both were rated 300w, (so both expected to do the same job), but the one cost R109 and the other R336 (more than 3 times as much). They were (brand names) "rising sun" and "Eheim Jager" respectively.....
Would the difference in Brand name enhance the quality to the extent that it is justified to buy expensive??....
Personally, I think (w.r.t. heaters) - and considering the consequences if it fails, the quality is determined by the price......Don't even look at brand names... Look at the price when you by this item, and get the most expensive one for your peace of mind.
