I have a Rheem Marathon that is now 17 years old. Still works and looks like new. Never replaced a part yet. They are expensive but in my experience, certainly worth it over time.
Ours was used seasonally until 2012 but has been in year-round use since then. I got it through a special discount deal that PSNH was running at the time. Didn't cost much more than a regular tank through their program. I wouldn't hestiate to get another, though with the lifetime guarantee I'll never have to unless we move (which we don't plan on doing).
