He's replied saying I can return it, he also said,
I will just add, I had run out of fuses and seeing your picture it reminded me of this. I had over 2000 gallons of water running in my fish room and this was not the only filter I was using , but needed the filter to keep working on a certain part of my system so that the biological bacteria in the filter did not die, hence the tin foil. I can assure you the filter is not faulty (if this was the case it would have shut down my whole system and put all my fish at risk) Also if this was the case, it would have blown my entire house electrics and this filter has been running for over a year with no leaks.
I have to say, I am a little confused that your feed back said "Perfect, just as described". Then you have come to me with a return request. I understand regarding your issue with the fuse but the plastic grid would have been visible if damaged on unpacking. Surely you would check for damage before leaving feedback?
If you have another preference of resolving this , please let me know before I instruct the courier.
That being the case, if it runs fine on a 3amp, do you guys think it's a good risk for me to take? Not really bothered about the filter grid thingy, can superglue that, and the rubber gasket, well it's got dry so that could have caused the cracking when I removed it to grease it?, the cracking isn't all over and I've filled it with water and it doesn't seem to be leaking.
The only thing I want is a new impeller, as I presume 3 fins wont give me enough flow at the 6?
If it hadn't been for the fuse, the other stuff wouldn't really have bothered me, except for the impeller, providing I'm right thinking that 3 fins reduces the flow?
And yes, silly of me to give feedback before I tested it, but a lot of feedback all 100%, me quickly taking the head off and seeing the filter media inside, I had no reason to doubt it wasn't working as I expected
