Easy yo assemble, quiet, great for my 300 gallons pond. This is my 2nd and I love it!

This has totally cleared up the water in my pond!

I am trying the filter box for the first time...we will see???

So far so, works perfectly.

The box would not stay down in the water. Had to put rocks in the bottom. Bout another one of these years ago and the pump in it was big enough and heavy enough, I never had any problems with it. In fact it is still working.

It is working like a gem, great pump for pond+waterfall. Happy with the product.

No pump is safe from clogs and sludge build up unless it’s inside a filter box. I’ve tried to finagle ways around it, but debris would still wreak havoc on my expensive pond pumps. This filter box clips closed tightly and I’m worry free.

Fit my pond and my pump perfectly.

Finally something that works to filter water while preventing pump clogs in a small ornamental pond. I have tried mesh bags, homemade exclusion techniques and nothing has worked as well as this filter box. Because the water pump is located within the filter itself, there is no need to run two submersible electric lines or to occupy two outlets since both functions (filter/clog prevention) are done by the box alone. I would give 5 stars if there were an accommodation for activated carbon along with the existing filter pads.

I don’t normally do reviews, but I found this product to be fantastic! I was frustrated by my dirty pond and tried everything, this worked super!

So much better than my old setup. Love having pump and filter together. Essier to clean and handle.

Was very happy with ease of use and how it really helped with pond..

I kind of which the hole was a bit bigger. I needed to get creative with how the pump went through it since the provided tubing was too big.

No way to latch the top on. Can but a weight on it, but that blocks some of the input holes. Still working on it to get it functioning the way I want. I turned it on its side and tied the top and bottom together. Sucks water from all water levels of basin. Also my tubes are very stiff. I am going to put a short extension on the pump that protrudes above the top and then couple that to my tube to my fountain. After I have that installed I think I will be very happy with the results. I am using it in a 4 tier fountain and it is attached to the tube to the top. I got this to keep this pump from plugging with leaves. My fountain is under a 30 ft tall crepe myrtle that drops tons of flower petals and leaves. I should be able to easily clean the input to the filter box and not have to do it nearly as often. BTW, I have a pond filter to clarify the water already. My fountain water is very clear.

Item needs to include measurements. No idea what size it is. Ordered as a replacement, drove to store, not even close to what I needed. I bought a 12 gallon box and modified

I must tell them that if you can't afford the extended warranty don't buy it. It only last about a year and two -three months. This is my third or fourth one , so I know.

It is too large for my fountain so I’m returning it.

Never had a fish pond until the new home. Water was merky and a lot of particles in water. Just had a pump with a wrapping around it. Followed the instructions, and placed pump inside the box. Three days later the water is clear and particles gone! The fish even seem happier! Works great!

Well thought out and constructed. Using with a 500gal/hr pump. I haven't cleaned it out yet. (10 days)
