ATIE Pool Cleaner Sand and Silt Bag K14 Replacement Fits for Polaris 280/480 Pool Cleaner K14 Sand and Silt Bag Great for Desert Area Pools (2 Pack)

Better than the OEM version

Just as other reviews said, these are fit for the job and my pool bottom is grit free.

I waited a week to review the sand and silt bag . The first use of the sand and silt bag with the Polaris , the pool was sparkling clean and I was throughly impressed. However , the next day the pool was sandy and gritty again ( I left the sand and silt bag on,) I ran the sweep twice that day , took me another day to figure out the debri collected by the sand and silt bag seeps out our escapes, possibly through the velcro closure ( that's just a guess,) HOWEVER, I PPOFECTED THE USE !!! If I change the bag from the regular zippered all purpose Polaris bag to the sand and silt bag and run the sweep for 30 minutes, detach and remove the bag immediately clean out the sand and silt bag it works AMAZINGLY 🐳 I definitely would recommend this product 🐳 Just change it immediately after you run the pool cleaner 🐳

This bag is awesome and holds up so much better than regular bags! I’m probably going to just stick with these! I purchased it because my husband put a covered patio and with all the sawdust going into the pool, I had to do something! Thank goodness someone suggested this bag! Now, our pool is beautiful and we were swimming in it just yesterday!!! I thought it was going to take forever heart to get the pool back in shape and I’m so glad I was wrong! I will definitely be purchasing this bag from now on!!! It gets the small stuff! I can do that yesterday, I was so impressed with how well it’s made. It has a Velcro clothes which I don’t care for but when I shook it most of it came out so I’m gonna stick with it! Oh and it’s significantly cheaper than the one someone told me to get!!! Seriously, by $20! I feel like I sound like a commercial but I don’t like spending money on stuff like that when there’s so many other fun things to buy, lol. Happy swimming everyone!

These are an excellent value; had this set for a year now and still in great shape. They will hold onto the small particles the 'normal' bags just let shoot through to cloud up the water. I've found fine bristles from the pool brush, a metal scrubber brush, and just about everything else you can think of gets trapped by these sand/silt bags. I've basically stopped using the 'standard' leaf bags as they let so much get through them. These are my go-to for keeping the pool clean. If you want them to last (velcro bag closure), you rotate the bags out and shake out what's trapped inside via the entry tube side...it's easy, then just let it dry out before opening the velcro and rotate the bags again. If you open the velcro closure end when bag is wet, the very fine gunk inside gets stuck in the velcro and it won't last doing it that way, which is the primary complaint with a velcro-closure style bag. Just be smarter than the bag, and they'll last a long time.

These filters work well and will filter out sand. Fit like if OE.

We bought these as a 2 pack on Apr 12,2021. We alternated them, using one bag one day, and the other on the next day. Each day, after we swapped the bags, we hosed out the one that had the debris in it. It is now June 12, 2021, and one has a big hole in it. Meanwhile, the OEM (Polaris brand) filter bag lasted a year or more, and does not have any holes. We will go back to OEM, as these were a waste of money. They do a good job filtering, but they do a BAD job lasting.

I have bought a few of these bags (I like to let them dry between using them so I can shake them clean) and so far I am more than happy -they collect the same size of sand and silt as the Polaris. The bag is the same size. The material is different. I have only had them for a few months so I will update this review in a year to see if they are durable! But so far so good!
