- Reviewed in Canada on September 3, 2018Verified PurchaseI've had this skimmer for 2 seasons now and it has been perfect. survived last winter completely frozen no problem. I did put my 2" Pipe higher than the marked place on the side because I wanted to be able to completely drain the pipe before winter. I also used a 2" bulkhead for the pipe. Other than that installed as recommended and it is great. Pretty easy to level out as well. And the grate helps keep the fish out which is definitely a "great" idea! ;)
- Reviewed in Canada on November 2, 2023Verified PurchaseBigger then I thought it was going to be works well. So not sure why but can’t seem to get a great seal. Took it out and replaced my old liner not sure about putting in back in the face isn’t smooth were there joined the plastic in place

5.0 out of 5 stars The best purchase for my pond
Verified PurchaseI am so glad I decided to get this! It skins all the falling debris off the top of the pond before it can sink and dirty the bottom. The only downside is it was hard to guess where the water line would be, but that was because I was new. Next time will be easier.
