Question: What are measurements?
Document: Based on measurements by prior customers, it fit perfectly as a replacement. I think it will function as well, and last as long as the original equipment. Quality seems very good!
the basket could not hold up to a 1 1/2 hp pump. The sucking pressure basically sucked it flat causing the handle to come off even with the pump off. now I have to get it unstuck and buy me another basket.
product was as described and fit perfectly as a replacement to our old one. We would purchase again if need be.
it's thin but it does the job. much cheaper than going to the dough boy dealer and getting one from them.
good quality parts and great price
fits right in place. works great too.
did not come with the metal bar to be able to pull it out, but still fit well and sturdy.
When my in-ground pool was built 7 years ago, the builder put all Hayward products in. So I was happy to see a skimmer basket replacement available through Amazon for so cheap. I've had to buy one every couple of years as they deteriorate and break, but have been paying $30 - $35 each. It was nice to find one at half off the pool stores.Be sure to measure before you purchase.
When I went looking for a replacement skimmer basket, the thing that annoyed me was that very few of the products gave their dimensions. I know, most are a standard size and I obviously knew the dimensions of the old basket but I didn't want to waste the time or money on a new one that didn't fit.
What a deal! I paid this much for cheap thin replacements at the local pool store. They don't last, be sure to buy genuine parts for reliability!
