I'm looking to buy a dosing pump to dose two part, and kalk. I'm leaning towards an aqua medic 3 pump system right now since it's in my budget. Have any of you used these pumps, and how do you like it? It seems to get mixed reviews so I'm kinda hesitant to pull the trigger.

Here's the one I'm thinking about buying.

I personally have never used a dosing pump but I have heard great reviews on this one.

Litermeter III ....plus its comprable in price to the Aquamedic.

I use one for Kalk and if you put a valve on the output, they work fine but running full out mine puts water too fast.
