Polaris K13 Zippered Bag, 280
About this business
Replacement Polaris All-Purpose Zippered Filter Bag Designed for use with Polaris 280 pool cleaners
This is the zippered bag. Other one is velcro I prefer the zipper bag for a few reasons. 1. its easier to open/close with gunk in the bag (grab the zipper), the velcro one requires you to be a little more hands on with the leaves and frog guts. 2. sand and debris gets caught in the velcro 3. if the velcro back is not perfectly aligned, the hard velcro can rub on the bag as its billowing in the water. Fraying the bag and eventually putting a hole in it.Having said that, my last zippered bag, the zipper broke. not really broke... read more
Works well This fits my pool sweeper perfectly, and it replaced my old nasty bag (which was even starting to decay). My only complaint is that it secures to the water line with a piece of velcro. Every time I remove the bag to dump the contents, I need to fiddle with this velcro. I hope the velcro holds up.... I would have preferred a simple plastic clip.
Love the Zipper Idea BUT This is the first Polaris Cleaner bad I have ever purchased that had a zipper. All the others I have been using over the past 16 years had a velcro closure and the debri would get caught into the velcro and over time the velcro couldn't stick therefore everything that was vacuumed would end up falling back into the water. One trick I use on my cleaner bags is that I place a ladies size knee hi nylon stocking inside the bag. It traps the small dirt particles that fall through the mesh bag openings. Th... read more
Best all round It is the same as the one that came with my Polaris. Had to get a new one after the dog chewed the little snap-in plastic connectors off the original one while I had it swapped out with a leaf bag. This was about half the price It would cost at the local pool store. I would give it a 5 if the bag and the bag connector could be replaced separately (at half the price) in the case that one or the other is damaged. It has a zipper like the original, but no hose slider.
Polaris all Purpose pool cleaner bag I purchased this in March 2010 There are a lot of trees near my pool and not having a specific leaf bag probably means that the standard bag gets a lot of extra strain during fall. The bag finally failed about June 2012Forgetting I had Amazon Prime I bought a replacement the same day at the local pool store and paid $18.00 more than the Amazon price, it is now mid December the new bag has begun to fail along the top seam and the zip jams shut, the only way to empty it is by shaking debris... read more
Wouldn't say that I NEEDED it, but it sure is nice to have! I am new to the polaris sweeper world. I just purchased a new home with a pool and the polaris was part of the deal. While reading online to figure out how to optimized the sweeper, I found out about this bag. I had the original bag with the velcro on it and hated how it got dirt in the velcro and would no longer seal appropriately. So I decided to try this bag out. It was a pleasant surprise. It works great, it seems to be just as efficient, and it is easier to emp... read more
Stick with Original Part vs. Buying a Generic Replacement Bag I've been burned before by purchasing a generic replacement bag, and I said never again. While they all (generic as well as OEM) will deteriorate over time, the Polaris-branded one seems to last a little longer but it is also the little things: you get a zippered bag that is a little more heavy duty vs. a velcro-type enclosure (which collects dirt, looks like crap after a while, and usually has a hard time staying closed after a few months of use).All-in-all, if y... read more
