Heater troubles......

So about 4 years ago I bought a bunch of stealth heaters and this winter some of them started failing. I like the look of them
so I bought 2 of the stealth pro marineland heaters from petsmart as replacements. They seem to be working fine but today I received
a recall leter sent to me by petsmart. It basicly says I can return the heater for a full refund.

There is a phone number for questions but it's on the east coast so I have will have to call tomorrow. I believe I heard someone
say they had some heaters blow up so now I'm paranoid about that happening.

More bad news: I bought one more from an online pet store that sells on ebay so I doubt I will be able to return that one.
Does anyone have any information on about whats wrong with these heaters and if I can't use these, whats the best heater?

I don't mind paying for a quality heater but im tired of replacing heaters every couple of years. Is there a long lasting
heater that has a good warranty ?

Yep. Our local club has a warning sent out.

Here is a link to a good site.
