VINGLI Professional Leaf Trap - Skim Leaves and Twigs with a Blue Canister to Keep Your Pool Clean

BDC68: It captures most of the leaves the pool cleaner picks up. A few still make it to the pump skimmer. The lid is very difficult to remove.

Bob: works great but cover is a little hard to get off. Would buy again.

R. Wolf: I purchased this to replace another leaf catcher canister that just really wasn’t doing the job. Immediately when I plug this in my creepy went crazy. I figured my other container was full of debris, but when I looked, it had three leaves in it. This canister must create some sort of a vortex. It really makes my creepy go really well. Two thumbs up!

Edit;
Everything was good until I had to dump the leaves out of the basket. It was very hard to loosen the top to get the leaves out. I struggled for about five minutes to get the top off of the canister. I clean the canister out and went to go put it together and the little silicone O-ring doesn’t stay in place really well. I thought with that for about 10 minutes and finally got everything back together. It worked well. The next time I went to go clean the leaves out. I had a worse problem trying to get the top loose. My pool man was very happy with my decision until he started having to deal with it. Needless to say, it’s been a thorn in my behind since I purchased it. I’m not very happy with it and I have replaced it with my old standard that worked well.

Chrissy (Quinlan) Hudson-Barcomb: I really like the idea of what this would do. It does keep the bigger things out of the filter. However the canister fills with air quickly and it tends to float. So I can't just let it run when I'm not out there. And the canister is extremely difficult to get open after it's been used.

MS: It is sooooo hard to twist the lid to open it. The rubber o-ring sealing the lid slowly stretched out over time, just 2-3 months, so that it became very hard to put it back together w/out the o-ring partly popping out. After 5 months the o-ring is too stretched out to fit at all, and a piece of the rails that hold the lid on has broken. Hence, it now just sucks air unless I weight it down to keep it underwater.

I think the broken piece and stretching o-ring are due to the super tight fit that makes the lid so hard to remove.
