Reef Octopus Regal 250SSS vs. 250INT

I'm between these two skimmers and my main question is regarding maintenance. In order to clean the pump on the SSS, do I have to take the whole thing apart? As far as performance, are these comparable?

For those that have this skimmer, how do you like it? I'm a huge fan of the varios pumps and hope I'd be just as happy with them in these skimmers.

I have the Regal 200 Int. From what I gathered when purchasing mine, the SSS models are less efficient because the pump is taking up space in the skimmer. If you have the room for the Int, I would go with it.
