Blaster 1000 Automatic Filter Cleaner 20"

After the first use when I tried to disconnect the waterhouse from it the connection came out and I cannot use it again.

works good

I was only able to use 4 times before it started to fall apart and leak water; had to throw away after the 5th use. Good idea, poorly constructed with cheap materials. Certainly not worth the price tag.

I wanted to like this soooooo bad!! While it works good and I believe gets any chemicals out of the filter it does NOT remove any debris….i don’t have much but there’s always some little leaves and other debris that will still be in the filter 10 mins later and you’ll have to use another system to remove those items. A bit disappointed for $100!

Was hopeful that this would make cleaning filters easier, not with my typical well water pressure. Didn't understand why the unit leaked at so many joints when water high pressure was needed for optimal cleaning. Even when I covered more jets than covers included, there still wasn't enough pressure to get into the bottom of the pleats. A waste of my money. And in my opinion, the unit isn't well made or built to last. Good idea, poor execution

Good, easy transaction. And the filter cleaner actually works if you soak the filter in a cleaning solution first

did not work have correct water pressure. use hand held cleaner works. do not buy, does not work

I hate hate cleaning the pool filters. It's cold during the winter and overall gross. This is the best thing I've ever done for myself. I simply plug it in to the hose and turn on the water and magic happens. I wish I done this sooner but I was being cheap. It's worth every penny.

It works good cleaning filters but leaks water all over I don't think it will last very long made with plastic. I drain it and hang it in the garage don't want to freeze in the winter. Good idea just needs to be made stronger

It doesn't get any better than the Blaster 1000 for cleaning your pool or spa filter. Saves me time and cleans my filters to like brand new. A great timesaver! It will last a long time providing you don't back over it with your vehicle like I managed to do!

Works O.K. but I still needed to clean it with a hose by hand for deeper dirt and grease off the filter.

I tried everything to clean our spa cartridges: hose attachments, chemicals, brushes, etc. A couple months ago I found the Blaster 1000. I have cleaned the filters twice now: hook up the Blaster, place the filter, turn on the hose, and run for 30 minutes. Filter is a clean as when it was new.

I ordered this cleaner with 2 new filters and I've been rotating between the two every couple weeks. Sparkling clean water and filters with no hassle. Love it!

The product works like it should however the hose bib broke on the first use. I super glued it back on so far so good.

What a great product! Can't believe this isn't standard equipment for all cartridge-style filter tubs. It absolutely removes the drudgery of hand-cleaning those pleated filters. No more dirty spray all over you and others, and no more wasted time either. The first time I used this, I was literally giggling with delight. Does a solid job of cleaning too.

Easy to use. Does everything it said it would. I stay VERY dry during the process! Highly r3ecommended

The product works as described and so much better than spraying the filter with your hose. Less water wasted and less hassle. Does the job.

This makes cleaning the filters so easy. I just pop the whole unit in our garage sink and voila! It's amazing. You will likely have to do some creative covering of the holes but that is a-okay.

Cleans cartridge filter faster and with WAY LESS work. After years of bending over and tediously spraying filters with sprayer head and getting mediocre results... this filter cleaner is a dream come true! Great purchase!

I've only used it twice but so far, it's doing a great job. Uses a LOT of water but I guess that's just part of it.

I like the concept and it do okay, but not as good as I had hoped for.

it works very well

I was pleasantly surprised when I used my Blaster 1000 for the first time, it worked just like it was advertised and better than I expected. Maybe the naysayers don't know how to read instructions.

Connecting to hose with enough gpm rate is extremely important for device to work as expected/intended. The rotation feature is very helpful. I used a water flosser in conjunction with filter cleaner and between the two, cleaning time was cut significantly over using flosser, alone. I was impatient and wanted to finish the chore so I used both the automatic cleaner and flosser - I used two separate hose bibs on opposite ends of house. My cartridges were very dirty. Now that I have two sets, I plan to change out every 4 to 6 weeks. That should allow filter cleaner to work alone and more efficiently. Price seems high for initial result which took more than the recommended 5-8 minutes. I hope future uses are quicker. Effectiveness boils now to water flow from hose. Stronger flow=better results. I'll recommend with reservations.

It has no pressure, when hooked up to garden hose, to even, clean the filter, the concept is a good idea, would like to return product but to ship back to USA would cost half of what the cleaner cost

A drain plug would be a welcome addition.

Description is close to what the device does. The water pressure is not as forcefull as I expected. The auto roller system does not really work when your filter has plastic so you have to apply a little pressure for the filter to turn. The worst is to try to drain the Blaster after you are done using it. There is no drain you you have to shake it back and forth and try to get the water out. If you have a place to store it where it will not freeze, then not a problem, otherwise lol.

I really like this product. Makes cleaning the filter a snap.

Didn't work from the second I opened the box. Would not spin our hot tub filter even after I put grip tape on the rollers. I can't believe they charge more than $25 for this trash! I had to spin the rollers by hand, then got sick of it and just sprayed it by hand. I want my money back!!!

The product broke the first day, when applying water pressure, water leaked from top side of plastic welds. The cleaner did work great for an hour cleaning four filters before it self destruction. SpaDepot referred us back to the manufacturer for the warranty , The manufacture wants a written complaint back to them before they will do anything. So far it's been a big hassle. I would not recommend this to anyone.

It cleans the filter perfectly in about 5 minutes.
