Excellent filtering, but doesn’t stand up to hard use. I had the old version of the US Pool Supply leaf canister and had planned to come here and write a glowing 5-star review with how much better this one works, then the canister cracked under pressure.The good: This is the best inline filter I’ve used, period.- The option for both fine (mesh bag) and course (basket) filtration is perfect.- The basket does great for larger debris, keeping suction high but protecting your pump and pipes.- The separate cap and retainer makes it much easier to remove the top when the filter is full.- Having the o-ring outside the basket/bag prevents the seal from getting damaged with debris.- The design maintains suction even as the basket gets to full which exceeds my expectations.- Adding the bag does even better at filtering at the cost of some suction as the bag fills up.The bad: The plastic isn’t thick enough to withstand significant suction.- I have the previous version with bag-only, but it was made of much thicker and better reinforced plastic.- I didn’t even think of it, but I was only able to connect the canister to my existing hose because I had a male-to-male adapter from the old version of this product. If I hadn’t had that on hand, I wouldn’t have been able to use the canister.- If you catch any sudden clog or blocker, the case will crack under pressure. I used it for 3-4 runs through leaves and debris as I opened my pool without issue, but when I hit something significant it cracked significantly (see picture). Imagine your vacuum exploding when you actually suction up your curtain in the end.If this canister was just a little bit stronger I’d be singing it’s praises. I will update if I can get it replaced under warranty, but given others experiences I’m not holding my breath.
POOL LEAF CANISTER WITH FINE MESH NET. It’ll take one adapter for the hose fittings that’s not included, but otherwise, it works as advertised. The key for me was the fine mesh net so the smallest debris doesn’t pass through and clog up the filter. Easy to disassemble and clean. Letting it dry out after use and storing it out of the sun will help it last longer. I’ve used it twice in about three months and it still looks new. I would buy this again.Update: 9/8/22 (after 4 months) – I’ve used the canister 3 times in the 4 months I’ve had it and it has worked fine until the 3rd time. I had a little more debris than normal and after about 5 minutes, the canister imploded, and developed 2 vertical cracks along the canister body and 2 stress areas. Since the product has a 1 year warranty, I submitted the warranty claim on line and contacted TCP Global customer service ( agent for US Pool Supply products) the next day. I was overwhelmed with the positive response I got. The representative verified my purchase information and said they would be sending out a whole new unit, not just a replacement canister. I received the replacement unit 2 days after contacting TCP Global in a box marked “Rush”. Just amazing, what great customer service. I can unquestionably give a 5 star recommendation for products sold by TCP Global/US Pool Supply. I still give the canister 4.5 stars. It works, but the plastic canister could be a little stronger. My thought about why the fractures occurred in the first place is that there probably was too much negative pressure from the debris in the silt bag. If you are picking up a lot of fine sand or silt, you should empty the bag several times during a cleaning session.
Cheap, decent, but only lasted for about 1 year. Did the job for me, it’s XL size vs others, I dont need to clean it as often. My failed after a year, i am in Florida, it’s hot and i keep it in the pool pretty much all year round. The canister still intact but the rubber gasket on the top failed. If i were to find replacement rubber gasket i think it could still last me for another year, overall happy with it.
Game changer. I’m new to pool stuff so I just found out about this. Best thing ever. I have olive tree leaves falling all the time and this makes the basket from the pump stay waaay cleaner, the water flows and finally the pressure its right. Easy to open and clean.
As advertised. Works great, would be better with a sock
Perfect. We needed a replacement ASAP and the store sold it for 3 times more!! This product was the perfect replacement
Returned. Good product but it doesn’t fit my pool tubing so I had to return it
Se atasca bastante. Se atasca bastante pero lo necesito
Good price, clouds over time. This leaf basket is a good deal and seems to work fine. I’ve had mine for about a year. The biggest downside is that it turns cloudy after a few months of use has shown in the picture, so you can no longer see the inside to find out if it’s full of leaves or not.
Great product and design. Great product design – no replaceable parts such as rubber gasket or net (as it’s optional). The 1yr warranty and reasonable price sold me on the product, at least enough to try it.Out of the box, the item worked perfectly and I’ve been very happy with the purchase. I did have an issue after only two months where the cylinder cracked. While disappointed, I was VERY PLEASED with the outcome… once brought to the attention of the manufacturer (TCP Global), they gladly replaced it, no hassles, no charge.Overall, I’m happy with this product and would highly recommend it. Will definitely purchase again as needed in the future given this positive experience.

Weak plastic. Works great til it doesn’t. This is my second one, I didnt know why the first one broke until today. I took the vacuum off to check the suction and when i put my hand over it, the plastic housing shattered. I bought it April 8,2024, and returns were only available for 30 days. I should have stuck with the hayward which lasted me 4 years. 2 of these in less than 1 yar; I could have bought the name brand for almost the same price.
Cleans fine materials with fine filter. Love this! Works like a charm and easy to use.
Works exactly like it should. After our old leaf filter needed replacing I asked our pool man for his recommendation, and he told me about this one. Glad I purchased it, works perfectly
Do not buy. US Pool makes products that look like products made by US companies, but they are junk! I will never buy anything made by US Pools again!This leaf basket didn’t last 30 days, and is made with cheap thin plastic! I ring is a joke too… All junk!
