I've got two of them. The first one's impeller was mysteriously chipped during normal use and thus was unbearably loud, it lased about 7 months. The one I'm using now has been going strong with no problems for about equal time. The pump does produce more heat than Hydor, but if you have a decent radiator or heatercore it won't be a big deal.
I DEFINATELY prefer the VA1300 over all of the EHEIM pumps because of size/performance, and I have never tried a Hydor personally so I can't really judge.
