Geba, Hepu or Graf are all good quality and should all have metal impellers. I have been told that Graf is a little better quality, but I don't know.
Pros: good quality, metal impellers

I had been hearing a hitch-pitched noise from my engine that almost sounded like a vacuum cleaner about 5-10 minutes after engine start up. Took the car into the dealer to find that it was a water pump failure (as I kind of knew from poking around here). It looks like this is a fairly common issue for 2012's unfortunately, but just a heads up for people as this didn't trigger a CEL or anything.
Pros: no CEL triggered
Cons: water pump failure, common issue
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Jetta
ok, so found the problem. WATER PUMP BEARING SEIZED!! Duralast quality and so it ate the belt.
Cons: bearing seized, ate belt
I just lost my motor on christmas day due to water pump failure (hepu brand)
