looking to replace my attwood ehm-6 saw a kuuma water heater online less $$ than atwood, any one have experience with this brand?
 
Well, you could buy the cheapest, but how much cheaper is it?

If you buy an exact replacement, it, and all the hoses and electrical connections will hook right up.

The cheaper one may save you $10 in price and cost you $20 in adapters.

If you buy the name brand heater, you know where to get replacement parts. What about the "cheaper" brand?

If you've gotten good service from your Attwood water heater, I would just replace it with the same model.
 
Based on the photos, they look quite similar to each other, however the Attwood is made in the U.S.A. - where's the Kuuma made?
 
I replaced mine two years ago with Kuma and no problems so far. It was an exact match for connections.
 
Kuuma is the old Force One except the company is now US based instead of Canadian. I suspect that most of the parts are made in China and assembled here in the US. Their main office is just down the street from me here in San Leandro, CA. I've met the owner and his wife and they seem like really fine people.
