the photo comaprison to EK 150 were pretty interesting to me.
the koolance reservoirs look quite similar as well, unfortunately can't really blame them for it. it's hard to reinvent the tube.

looks like a pretty good reservoir over all, but really no reason to go out and upgrade.

I own a Koolance Reservoir too. The overall quality is not so good: visible glue rests and rust at the blind plugs :( check the pic. The Koolance Reservoir costs 45 EUR here in GER and no mounting stuff comes with it -> 10 EUR extra costs

That rust is from the plugs which have been changed over to brass. Koolance is on Rev 2 of that style res anyway so it makes little difference.
