By Trevon W.
The product did what it said it would do which is why I gave it two stars. The problem for me was that the Skim-a-round was too tall to allow for the float valve underneath it. The float valve is critical to the safety of your filter system so I removed the Skim-a-round and went back to the standard basket - which works just fine.
