This filter makes my pool super clean. I've been using these for a long time and I definitely would not go with any other type. Highly recommended. My pool is Crystal clear.

Product arrived earlier than first estimate - a plus when this became the last step in a pool reconditioning.Was a perfect fit and appears to be working great. I would definitely be using this exact product when a change is necessary.

I have been using Unicel C8412 for many years. works great. I rinse it once a week. mine started to age and when it gets heavy it's a sign for a new one. I called amazon after seeing this listing ships and sold my amazon. they assured me it is an authentic Unicel C8412.It arrived a few days early! in the manufacturer's box with pamphlet. I literally was rinsing my current C8412 when it arrived . I inspected and stood them side by side . they are identical.with weekly rinsing and maintaining pool chemical balance my self, I actually get 2-3 years out of this filter. my other one still works ,and I will use it if I need to do an algaecide treatment or phosphate treatment.I put this new Unicel C8412 in , fits perfect, crystal clear water. will buy again. the price is right too!. the local pool store I called quoted 128.99 plus tax for this exact unicel C8412.it really is a great filter, using this brand for years and pool always crystal clear . Filter lasts a loong time with proper care and maintenance.

Excellent filter. Has kept my pool sparkling clean for over a month now. It seems to be holding up as well as an expensive one I last bought at a pool filter store.Writing 2+ years later, it did hold up very well. But, once I went to replace it, I noted the price had gone up significantly. It’s still an excellent product but it’s overall value has gone down as it’s price has gone up. Now rating it fours stars as a result.

I have a Hayward Star Clear Plus 1200 filter system and am used to cringing when knowing I had to go and purchase a replacement filter each year from local pool supply stores. They want me to replace them annually and I would drag out the purchase several months by cleaning the current filter as many times as I could. This Unicel replacement filter fit perfectly and was about half the cost I was used to seeing at the pool supply stores. I was hesitant at first not seeing what I was ordering but the package arrived quickly and the filter cartridge was safely packed and ready to go. I installed it within a few minutes and it worked flawlessly as designed. No mess no fuss. I especially like ordering larger items and having them delivered instead of driving around with these in my car. For replacement cartridges, I cannot recommend this approach for cost savings and the simplicity of delivery highly enough. I am pretty meticulous and even with my filter cleaning sometimes I still see little floating filtrates around in the water at night with the pool light on. After using this cartridge for two days, the filtrates are gone and water is crystal clear.

My review for the cartridge follows this little tip. If you have a pool that uses a cartridge filter you have to try this. Believe me, you're going to love it.---- SAVE TONS of time cleaning the cartridge. Have a cleaner pool. Prolong the life of your cartridge and save money ----I'm now using disposable hairnets in our skimmer basket. Get them here....http://amzn.com/B004E2MCNI(even read the reviews on that product page, I'm not the only one that is having success)The expensive cartridge is staying virtually debris free. The hairnet acts as the first line of defense, getting stuff the skimmer basket does not - Hair, Bugs, sand and dirt when vacuuming. The hairnets come in a 100 pack for $8.86 ($0.09 each) and are disposable. I change it daily or every other day.Before discovering these hairnets for the skimmer basket, I was cleaning the cartridge with a hose 4 times a week. Now I clean the cartridge just once a month. What a HUGE time saver. And my cartridge lasts twice as long.Good luck.*******HERE IS MY ORIGINAL REVIEW on the UNICEL CARTRIDGE:Michigan pool season: Mid-May to mid-SeptThe company we bought the pool from said the Hayward filter would last for 3-5 years. It may have, but it was almost impossible to clean because small debris built up deep in the pleats . We got a summer and a half out of it before frustration in its cleaning set in.As a replacement, I bought this Unicel in 2013. Worked great through the end of the summer. Used it again this spring. Like the Hayward, it can only be cleaned so many times before the junk begins to build up deep in the pleats, especially the cottonwood fuzz. We could buy the Hayward and pay the extra money but it really won't last much longer and, as with this model, gets more difficult to clean as time goes on.I just buy one every year and install it mid-June (or after the cottonwood is down). Having a new one each year cuts down on aggravation of low pressure with the filter and having to clean the unit multiple times per week.In my opinion, it's the best bang for the buck.----Edit to original post----Fig'd I'd post the price history. I've bought 4 so far. I have noticed it approaching $50 in early fall.6/20/13 purchased at $775/21/14 purchased at $676/2/14 purchased at $59 (started using hair nets)6/2/15 $59 (didn't purchase, cartridge still clean because of hairnets)5/21/17 purchase at $59.996/19/18 purchase price $68.00
