What I thought before making a couple calls:
Never heard of them, and I read, travel and talk a lot about equipment.
The website seems snake oily to me - venturi never needs cleaning, skimmer is virturally maintainance freee, truly set and forget, and way more - which makes me nervous.
After a couple of calls:
I was told the venturi does need cleaning, that the equipment is 'OK', that there is a reason they aren't more popular. That they are really really good at phone/internet sales, but the products don't necessarily match up to their promo materials.
I was told by someone else that they are fine, but they are old school.
Not really much help.
