R38013A Replacement Admiral Skimmer Basket

Perfect match for the model I was looking for , fit and finish was spot on. No issues or complaints. Expecting this to last me several years with no issues.

Fantastic, fit my skimmer and made of heavy duty plastic.definite recommend

I initially received this product and it had no locking tabs. I requested a replacement from the seller and they sent a new one right away without asking for the original to be returned. The replacement came in a Pentair branded bag whereas the original did not come in a Pentair bag. Also the original that was missing the tabs has different stamping on the lip than the replacement. You can see in the photo the Penatair version (left) has the tabs and the original item sent (right) has no tabs and the different stamping. When you receive this check that it comes in a Pentair bag and has the tabs.As others have reported the tabs may need a little filing to get the weir to fit in the basket. I bought both new OEM and I had to file one tab a few times to get the weir to drop enough to rotate. Not even enough filing was need to get the dremel tool out.A mounting tab for the weir door on my skimmer was broken so instead of an aftermarket weir door I purchased this assembly. The performance of this assembly is great and I'm very satisfied. Picture attached of it in action.5 stars for performance and 5 stars for the seller promptly sending a replacement.

Looks good works well does what it’s supposed to do

Well made at half the price of similar at pool,supply srore

I've tried a lot of aftermarket pool skimmer baskets from my local pool store that fall apart after a season or two. (we have a ton of trees over the pool). This one seems a LOT thicker and sturdier and does the same job as my aftermarket "venturi style" skimmer gadgets without being too gimmicky. One thing to note, that this is not weighted and will float along with the center column when the pool pump is off. Will update the review if it fails, cracks.

Perfect product arrived on time

I have been on the search for a pool skimmer basket for quite some time. I am so happy I came across this one! It is so thick and sturdy - you can tell it will last a long time. It fit perfectly too.
