lifereef skimmers? any good?

I know lifereef is well known for overflows, but how about his protein skimmers. They are not cheap, but it seems like he knows what hes talking about. Any experience with them? pros/cons?

Lifereef Filter Systems


The Lifereef Protein Skimmers offer you the following.......

NO SALT-CLOGGED VENTURI, or injector nozzles, needle-wheels, EVER! our skimmer utilizes a self-cleaning venturi. (nozzle injected and other venturi skimmers clog and require maintenance)
NO SUCKING NOISES, silent operation, no injector nozzle noise, no needle-wheel hum and vibration.
NO EXCESS BUBBLES in your sump!
NO constant adjustments, the self-cleaning venturi prevents water level fluctuations and maintains consistent air/water mixing.
NO cup overflow, the self-cleaning venturi prevents the cup from overflowing.
NO EXCESS BUBBLES in your sump!
NO special waste collector required, our cup is a collection cup, not a diverter cup.
NO "humming" or vibration noise as in needle-wheel designs or hard-mount pumps on the skimmer body.
NO ERRATIC PERFORMANCE, the self-cleaning venturi maintains a stable water level and skimming.
NO EXCESS BUBBLES in your sump!
NO EXCESSIVE pipes, valves, tubes, contraptions, or "air sucking devices" hanging all over the skimmer.
NO AGGRESSIVE OR HARSH skimming as in downdrafts, high-speed aeration, nozzle injectors or Becketts.
LESS SENSITIVITY to "hands-in-water" foam breakdown, faster foam recovery time.
NO multi-adjustments and "balancing acts" such as air intake and water intake and water exit. Just ONE adjustment and maybe the pump output
NO proprietary pumps as in needle-wheels. Many pump brands can be used.
NO MAINTENANCE except emptying the cup and cleaning sludge from the skimmer and cup neck!
Again, NO EXCESS BUBBLES in your sump!

 

Never seen one, so I guess a bump for you!

 

I have seen a few in action! Great skimmers! If i wasnt so big on Octopus skimmers id probably use one of those!

 

the lifereef was out of my budget, I just purchased the octopus dnwb200

I hope I made the right choice
