Does anyone have this model? The price is great, but bad reviews on Amazon. I thought this is what I wanted,. But the reviews scare me. Any advice from my fabulous TFP family?

Maybe put the actual equipment name in the thread title?

I have a Hayward sand filter but not sure if it's the same model. Last year was my 1st season. I get lots of debris and the unit works 24/7. To get and keep the water very clear, I realized it needs backwashing weekly then adding a packet of clarifier for smaller particles. It's clear for 4-5 days after. Bi-weekly is ok too. It didn't break and I believe it's 4 years old now.
