Great Product,

Pros: will remove the larger dirt wedged inbetween pleats
Cons: do not do a good job of removing dirt from pleats near ends of filter
"This is an all around good product. It does exactly what it says but depending on how much pressure you have from the water line you are using, and no matter how long you run the water into the device to clean the filter, your filter will not be spot cleaned and white as if you just bought it. It is great for getting the main portion of the dirt out but for a thourough job I end up doing a manual pass after an initial run on the blaster in order to really get between the pleats of the filter to get the most dirt and scum out of the filter before reusing it."

Pros: time saver
Cons: none
"I debated about spending the money on this but was glad I did. Does a good job on my filters. I can put it in and come back in a couple minutes and filter is clean. Seems to get in the crevises of the filter just fine."

Pros: Time Saver
Cons: Does Not completely clean filters - Jets need to be more powerful
"I bought this in hope that I would not have to spend so much time cleaning my filters and could pop them on this machine and go off to do other things. It does help clean some, but does not completely do the job. I have to go over with sprayer connected to the hose to get them completely clean, PLUS I have those really big filters (4) so I have to flip them as it will only clean half of the filter at a time. It's OK to get the job started, but I ultimately have to finish the job by hand, which is a dissappointment."

Not Pleased,

Pros: lightweight
Cons: Not effective enough
"I was very hopeful about this product and unfortunately it did not meet my expectations. It was not constructed to last for a long time, which I felt was contradictory to the price. This product did not clean into the crevices of the filter which is where the main dirt and grime is. If you filter does not have deep folds it may be an effective solution, but that is not the case with my filter."
