Note, that this review is for the newer model. I ordered specifically to get the old model, but got the new one anyhow. I got my last pump to last for 8 years, which from what I have read, is a pretty full life for these. They have made some good improvements in design since I bought my last one, and they are welcome. The strainer basket design is much easier to open/close without sticking. The grid in the sand is all one piece now as well, so less assembly needed. The 6-way valve is effortless to operate, and the pump is quieter and more powerful. These last may just be my comparison between an old worn-out pump and a new one! Overall, I hope it lasts as long as I plan to keep operating a pool...

With water with a very high iron content, our paper filter could not get it out fast enough. Running the paper filter pump day and night, after a week and a half, we knew we needed a sand filter. Installation was easy and fast. Filled with sand (it takes 2- 50lb bags btw!) and had it running in less than an hour. In less than 8 hours, our water was clear and perfect. It got the iron and let us have a nice, crystal clear pool. And the great part- you only need to backwash about once every week and a half. If you wonder if it's worth the price- (is it too cheap?)- yes, it's a great value and one that will last for a long time.

I've owned an above ground 24x12 Intex ultra set pool for 5 years. Unfortunately i left the sand filter & pump out last winter which in Wisconsin will destroy these types of things due to the remaining water freezing and expanding. Luckily i found this replacement which not only fit everything perfectly works better than the original pump! Shipping was lightning fast and everything was well packaged. I had the pool ready to roll in less than 30 minutes as it had already been filled and had the original fittings on it; which matched perfectly. This pump &filter saved our 6th season with this awesome pool!!!

This pump has a lot of suction. It's almost too much for the hose i use to vacuum (starts to pinch). It was a 20 minute setup, but when it's up, it requires little maintenance. I backwashed the sand once a week and have noticed no deterioration to the performance. I've got it emptied out now, getting ready to store for the winter; that was simple enough.

I have a coleman 18' x 48" pool , the 1st rain I could not get the water clear ,skimmed , swept etc but water remained very cloudy, had a pro test done on my pool water/ chems ..all was good. pool company said to clean the filter daily. SO, I changed to new filters daily rinsing every 3 hrs, for 3 days , no luck, still cloudy , I purchased & hooked up this intext 2800gph & sand filter system in 6 hrs the water was clear as could be." fantastic".. anyone want a factory junk pump rated at a joke of 1500gph. also lotsa costly paper filters to go with it. BUT ,if you want a clean pool . less work , less expense, buy this pump/ sand filter
