Title: The Whisper doesn't whisper
Product review: Bought this based on mostly positive reviews, hoping that I wasn't going to be one of the unlucky ones to end up with a dud (seemed like that did happen, quite often).I haven't returned it, as it is the only filter I have on my aquarium, but I have been thinking about it ever since we got it. It was noisy right out of the box, it was noisy after their recommended "pick up and then drop" tip, it was noisy after 24 hours, and it is noisy now a month later. The entire tube assembly with the impeller is somehow out of balance, leading to an incredibly annoying vibration with occasional grinding noises. I have tried packing it with bits of sponge I found in the house, which helps a bit. But overall, I cannot recommend this filter unless you're the gambling type.
