Crystals Swimming Pool Filter Pump, Paddling Pool Filter Pump 300gal (1136L Per Hour), Pool Filter Cartridge Pump, Grey

Rubbish doesn’t work, my pool looks no different, have to sweep it every day to push it to the pump, and the clamps are plastic there going to break in the sun

This product is deceiving as the picture shows rubber washers on the arms to stop the hoses coming off, however there are none; so even though you try and tighten the clips as much as possible (bearing in mind they're only plastic and not very strong) the hoses still have a tendency too slip off, meaning that the pool empties. Also, the filter itself is much smaller than standard so even if you manage to jam the filter in you can't screw the to back on.Probably worth spending a bit more and getting a decent one.Having said that, it does seem to work well when the hoses stay on.

Terrible pump, stopped working after a month. Have requested a replacement or refund so hopefully the seller will resolve it soon.

Background: I own a solid above ground acrylic 1000L hottub and do my own plumbing repairs, but am a DIYer with paddling pools. Having a filtered paddling pool is new to me, however, in the grand scheme of things, I can't see any issues here.This item: came with a big O ring on the top lid, and two smaller O rings on the pipes (both supple). The pipes fit onto the inlet and outlet on this unit snugly, they then have a plastic jubilee clip with screw: this seems very snug to me and I'm confident it will hold water no problem (waiting for summer in June). I think fitting to the pool will differ from brand to brand.The item was the size I was expecting, and looking at the filter size I think 300l per hour seems about right.Overall, comparing this to my experience, I can't see any issues. I'm used to having sneaking water, and actually expect it to happen anyway LOL.
