Installation Was Easy Peasy (Above ground Coleman)
Bought the 12-inch filter for a 16 foot round Coleman. No hose adapters, or additional fittings were needed. I simply unscrewed the hoses from the Coleman pump that came with the pool, and fastened them to the new Intex...easy peasy. And I have no leak problems, but I did use a little o'ring sealer as always. Went with Zeosand rather than silica sand for the additional filtering capability, (2 to 5 microns vs 20 to 30 with sand). Be sure to thoroughly backwash Zeosand before filtering with it. The timer unit does have an override to run the pump continuously if/when needed.
UPDATE: So far...I have nothing bad to say about this pump-filter. The pool water is unbelievably clear. The pump is fairly quite as well.
