My experience was I had to install the whole unit and not just my broken part. Also some instructions (none included)would had been nice to tell me this instead of making this a miserable 20-30 minutes by trying to change the plunger only and not the whole unit. I would had given it 5 stars had there been some printed warnings and/or tips. The product works well and I am pleased to have my filter working again. Just be prepare to replace all the parts and not just the plunger or other broken parts. Once again I would buy from these people again and the 4 star rating should not deter anyone else from doing the same.

We had tried to order 2 plunger valves with strainer assembly from Intex for over 6 months but the item was always out of stock. Finally it was an item that we could no longer wait to order so we found it in Amazon.com and ordered the exact item we needed. We received it very quickly and since they were identical replacement items they went on easily so we were able to continue using our pool. We are very pleased with both the service and the product. If we need any other parts for our pool, we will save our valuable time and use Amazon.com.

First order on Amazon, product delivered earlier than they estimated, fits our pool like a glove and the price was great!!! Will be looking and shopping Amazon many times in the futre for my “needful things.” One very happy camper.

I wanted to upgrade my existing pump so bought this together with a new 2500gph pump
Installation was a snap. I chose not to buy the 1.25″ to 1.5″ adapter and opted to cut a larger hole on the pool wall instead. Do it at your own risk!. First I traced the gasket over the smaller existing hole and cut it with x-acto knife. Placed the washer in the inner wall and hand tightened the nut. No leaks whatsoever, could not be more easier.
Its a significant improvement over my old pump.

these are better than the ones that came with the pool. very satisfied with the product
