Seriously.... for those prices!!! GET THE EHEIM Go for broke and get the larger model 2028. It's well worth it. If you aren't sure it's going to be in the store and don't want to wait for shipping online, get the FILSTAR. They are the next step down on the totem pole in the canister filter department. There are alot of filters out there but EHEIM and FILSTAR will last you the lifetime of your tank.
