I have a bayres.
My only issue with it is that the threaded holes don't line up with the attachment system in my current case - might be that I am the one off-standard, though.
The nice part about it (or any other res you can mount high in your system) is that is does a good job trapping air bubbles.
I had one of those innovatek push-fit-on-eheim reservoirs, but the capacity was so small that my pump was causing a "whirlpool" - and air bubbles were getting sucked in. Also, with my pump at the bottom of the system (to reduce required suction head to zero or thereabouts) this reservoir has a fitting that does not point upward, requiring a right angle turn (I'd put a sweep in if I had room). The reservoir is clearly designed to go with the compete innovatek "solution" - which is low-flow. I am water cooling for noise reduction so I'm using the smallest eheim I could get (1046) combined with 3/8" tubing - so I'm not exactly "high-flow".
Now innovatek has a similar reservoir, but with upward-pointing fitting and apparently larger (hard to tell from pictures) interior volume. I think I might buy one as it solves my "right turn" problem.
