Title: If you intend to use for wet/dry shop Vac, it’s too small for most vac cartridge filters
Review: I bought these for an unintended use, and that use was to put over my wet/dry shop vac filter, in order to prolong filter life. These filter socks are definitely on the small side, I’m sure this works great for most pool filters, but if you’re like me, and wanted to use it for a shop vac, I do not recommend. I managed to get a sock on my Stanley 6 gallon, but even that filter was too big for the sock, I ripped a few trying to stretch it onto the filter. I ended up using 2 socks to make it work, first one with a hole ripped in the bottom, second one overlaps the first one (pictured) . I need some for my 12 gallon also so I’ll be looking for larger pool socks.

Title: These have saved our filter
Review: We have a huge cottonwood tree in our backyard and these have helped with keeping it out of the filter. We have to change them out every few hours because there is so much cottonwood but it is pretty easy to just peel it off and put the skimmer basket back in. Thankfully the tree only throws off cotton for about a month

Title: Wow, what a difference!
Review: I decided to give these a try after reading how skimmer socks are suppose to catch extra stuff in your pool. I try to keep my pool clean but it seems to always have those super fine particles like pollen that just keep sinking to the bottom no matter how much you vacuum it. My skimmer basket is usually full of bugs, grass, hair, leaves and stuff like like so I figured I would see if these socks would catch more and to my extreme surprise, my basket was filled with something else along with the usual! I took the basket out and removed the sock and then replaced with a fresh one. I set the used sock on the ground and came back later to check it out. I was able to turn the sock inside out and literally peel the stuff off of it in layers. Whatever this sock caught had an almost cloth/lint like texture. I believe it captured a great deal of pollen and the bottom of my pool was much better- not completely fixed- but better. I will be able to reuse the sock as well. I do have to stretch the sock a good bit in order to put it on and it makes a funny shape in the center that allows an air pocket to form so the basket doesn’t want to just sink into the correct position but float up instead. This will fix itself once you turn the pump back on. The sock will stretch out once it starts collecting stuff. I do believe this is a good product and worth using during the entire pool season. I had to remove the bar/handle inside my skimmer basket but that’s not a big deal for me. I wish I had tried these sooner but I will from now on and will pass along my newly learned knowledge of these.

Title: Need Frequent Changing to Avoid Issues
Review: They are a very fine mesh that catch small debris. However, if not changed every 1 or 2 days they clog and can cause a skimmer basket to be collapsed and be ruined due to the suction created by the water pump trying to pull in watered. Monitor closely and they do remove fine debris. If you don’t monitor you will be buying new skimmer baskets.
