Time to replace my 25 year old Pentair cartridge pool filter. Props to pentair to have a quality product that lasted that long, but the filter cartridges are now hard to find and really expensive, and because of the age that situation isnt going to get any better. Liked everything about the Pentair, but changing cartridges was always a PITA too (getting a good seal with that funky stainless steel clamp. The new Pentairs are $1500-$1700 (wow). I've purchased several other VEVOR products and had a good experience, and this cartridge pool filter is no different. Everything feels like quality, and it came fully assembled so all I needed to do was cut the old Pentair out and replace in same way with the VEVOR unit. A filter is pretty passive so everything worked great. As always, time will tell, but I dont expect any surprises (nor do I expect 25 years usage) and it looks like filter replacement will be much easier on this updated VEVOR unit going forward. All good and saved a BUNCH versus the name brand.

Half of a summers use and it has had zero issues. Replaced an old DE filter and the water looks crystal clear.

Nice quality - worked well.

Was on the fence, but at half the price f comparable brands decided to give it a try. The box it arrived in was in tough shape, but the filter itself was unscathed for the most part other than a small scuff on the metal clamp. This filter is well built, very solid, seems high quality, stands level. The handles on the top are a nice touch. Each union has a double o-ring. No problems whatsoever with leaks. Not sure what other reviews were about the gasket and painters tape but mine fit nice and snug, it’s a nice thick gasket, little bit of lube and it was good to go…maybe they fixed it from previous. Pressure gauge and relief work well, only possible complaint there is im not sure about replacing it when times comes, The cartridge filters filter pretty well, time will tell how well they hold up. I general like to buy brand name equipment, but having bought other Vevor products and had good luck I decided to give it a try and I have to say I’m pleasantly surprised. If you’re on the fence give it a go, other 525 sq’ filters will run you 2k. If I have issues down the road I will update
