Waterbox marine vs reef

Hi all, debating between a Warerbox Marine and Reef. I know there are some differences in size, materials, and sump, but does anyone have any opinions on which they would lean towards? Thanks!
 
Waterbox has two main lines of tanks: the Reef series and the Marine series. They seem pretty similar, but there are differences in terms of size, materials, sump, etc. I’m hoping someone might have some insight on why one might pick one option over the other.
 
From the waterbox website.....

1 - The REEF models are 4" wider (front to back) than the Marine X.

2 - The overflow box in the REEF models are all glass vs. the Marine X that uses a removable plastic weir on the top.

3 - The REEF models use a UV coated plywood cabinet vs. the Marine X that uses a laminated plywood cabinet.

4 - The REEF sump has a tiered filter sock section and slightly different sump layout.

I would choose the Reef model just for the extra wideness and the uv coated stand.
