Save your time and go with a sand filter. More up front but you'll get a cleaner and easier to maintain pool, and arguably the filters will eventually end up costing your more in the long run.
Wow, these were going for about $200 during the pandemic. Seems like a good price. If you've got a small pool with the smaller intext pump (500 GPH maybe?) then this is an excellent upgrade. Moves more water through the filter faster keeping it cleaner in a shorter period of time.

Anyone know if this would work for a separate vacuum system? Maybe something go plug it on running on a 2 wheeler?

Can you use something like this for a hydroponic system? Bubbles for the DWC system?

Would this work for a small 500gal pond? It seems way cheaper than any other filter i remember researching.

If you have any decent sized pool (think 10+ diameter, 3+ feet high) just get a sand filter. The sand is cheaper in the long run, and puts out more GPH.

These filters need to be replaced/cleaned all the time. If you needed one for a kiddy pool maybe?

For a pond....I assume with actual stuff growing? It would gum this filter up immediately I would imagine?

Any specific model / brand you'd recommend? Recently bought a 15' x 48" and would like to use a sand filter in place of the filter that was included.

I have been using this on a 10' above ground pool for 4 years and it's still going strong.

I use it for 20-30 hours a week for 6 months all summer and store it in winter. It pumps ample volume of water and shoots out the nozzle like a jet stream. My water is crystal clear. I replace the filter as needed. roughly every 2 - 3 weeks. I use the leaf net as much as possible to make filter last as long as possible. I live in a woods so there is lots of debris falling daily.

I am buying this as a back up.

Thanks OP. Rep!!

what you want is a spin down filter to catch debri, something like this. these are designed to be flushable.

https://www.homedepot.com/p/Orbit.../100373243

For bubbles you need an air pump or use a venturi...with a venturi injector you add a clear hose and make sure its above the highest water mark and as the water flows through it, it creates a vacuum that pulls air into the water. be careful with bubbles as they can be damaging to roots if they are too aggressive since they are ratio'd based on the pump pressure. surface tension is all that is needed to oxygenate water...so just having a pump create waves can be enough, of course this depends on the needs of the root system. ive always thought it was a good thing to add something at 50-60% of the system to add more air.

I wouldn't buy this for anything over a 10 ft pool. They don't circulate near enough water.

These plastic filters are ok to start and if you don't use the pool for very long, they are good enough. But if you leave the pool up for any length of time, you are going to need something better. These will require replacement filters and don't do much to really clean the water.

Something like this will be a much better option over the long-term:
https://www.amazon.com/Bestway-58...1-244&th=1

This will filter and add chlorine, which is necessary to kill nasty stuff. These cheap plastic filters don't remove the bacteria and other biologicals that can harm you. They only remove debris. You need to add chlorine or something else that will kill the pathogens. Sand filters clear the water and some (like the linked one) will help add chlorine automatically.

Been kicking around an idea for an occasional-use external koi pond filter...this might actually work to slowly circulate a 2000g pond, especially if it underperforms. Will try it.

My pool is now filled with rainwater and it's getting very dirty and discolored and I don't know how to get the original pool pump system going again it keeps saying something like priming dry or something. I bought one of those pool vacuum with a garden hose hookup but it's very slow ấn tedious to empty the debris sack and doesn't seem to collect much of the algae. Would this work or what do you suggest? Pool now has leaves and some dirt algae buildup…. I put some fish in it to combat the mosquitos. Pool is now a pond for some fish but mostly to water the yard.

I use these for my inflatable hot tub but it's not connected to the hot tub's system. Instead, I piped it directly over the top and into the hot tub. Doesn't look amazing but the og hot tub filters are absolutely the worst. Now, after a dip, I turn off the native hot tub filter system and run the 1000 gph pump for a few hours to take the majority of the particulates. This saves me from using way more filters.

Note, I don't use the hot tub and the separate pump at the same time as I'm not sure my 15 amp breaker could take it if the heating element comes on.
Note 2, I piped it in a way that I can have a water feature on the hot tub now where we can hear some nice water running pleasantly or I can just make it work without the feature. I bought mine at about double the price.
