While the casing and cup seems well built, the pump impeller broke about two weeks after I bought it. I managed to rig the impeller with super glue but it still breaks every few weeks. I contacted the manufacturer via email on its website and asked for a new impeller set. After asking me to provide my proof or purchase and product number, I haven't heard back. I will update the post if and when I hear back from them but I'm not holding my breath. I wouldn't recommend this skimmer because of this issue and the fact that setting the cup level consistently has also been problematic. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pl/products/46158657-tia-1150-conic-protein-skimmer](https://www.desertcart.pl/products/46158657-tia-1150-conic-protein-skimmer) --- *Product available on Desertcart Poland* *Store origin: PL* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
