We loved ours last year. Buy extra filters at the begining of the season.(By mid summer they can be scarse.) I rinsed mine every few days and replaced about bi weekly or so. Don't use the floating clorine puck things or you will get too much stabilizer in your pool. You need a GFI outlet to plug in the filter. We bought a timer and ran the filter off that.

I can't wait for the Michigan weather to warm up so we can get ours out of the closet and set up. I'm looking forward to splashing and sipping. :-) Kim
