Review on Efficient Filtration with UP Aqua UA-600 Hang On Back External Filter by Monique Lopez

I really, really wanted it to be a good product. I usually take reviews here with a grain of salt, especially as canister filters can be tricky. It is also ideal for a pool with a river bank. However, right after unpacking, one of the fasteners that hold the lid broke. Since canister filters must be sealed, this was a deal breaker. The plastic was pretty cheap too, and some parts of the body showed plastic chaff from the molding process. It's a shame. I think the design is pretty good, but the manufacturers skimped on the materials and doomed the product.
