A skimmer is essential for a pond IMO
My concern with reviewing this is that I don't have experience with other skimmers for comparison. In any case, I'll just relate my thoughts and experience with this skimmer. My pond is roughly about 1500 gallons. Cons: 1) I found the mouth/entry to be a bit small for this size container (subjective). 2) The overflow holes confuse me. The pond would have to be several inches over the lines in the front. For my pond, it would overflow from the sides well before. I will have to make my own hole. Could be my inexperience. 3) The face of the inlet was off by about 1/8 of an inch where the two halves were fused together. This is a bad place to have a mismatch. I just put tons of silicone, but it left me anxious. 4) Getting this level is tedious. This goes for any/all of them, but take your time and get it right. 5) The grey cross supports are different sizes, be sure you know which goes where. 6) The design is odd. It worked perfectly for me as I had lined the upper/top of my pond with cement blocks. I dug a hole, pulled a block out, and slid it in place. Try to calculate how that shape fits for you. 7) it is big, and not easy to hide. Pros: 1) This thing is pretty thick/durable. 2) Comes with cross supports. 3) Lid is decent, and allows you to add sand. 4) The shape worked for me, make sure it works for your install. 5) It has a large cavity if you choose to put your pump in it. 6) The net and brushes work pretty well. 7) It has most of the parts/stuff you will need for the install. I'll add a quick picture or two, but my pond is still very much a work in progress. This is my first and only pond. It is a something for the ducks & chickens to enjoy (thus the fake plants). All the large rock is stuff I grabbed from on or around my property. Best of luck with your project(s).

DON'T MAKE MY MISTAKE. This is a nice product. But it does NOT install like other skimmers.
Little Giant needs to make a youtube video with step by step instructions showing the install. If you're dumb like me and watch video after video that shows the same exact steps over multiple skimmers - you're in for a surprise. This skimmer is different from the others. 1. The screws are included- they are in fact already screwed into the skimmer- so if you don't notice this- and there's no instruction that says "remove the screws from the faceplate" BTW - and you get your skimmer leveled, rocked in, liner set in the pond, up over the top of the skimmer - you'll be undoing a good part of it in order to remove those screws. That's not where the pain ends. 2. Expecting that you'll be poking holes from the inside of the skimmer box when it comes time to attach the liner? Like all the other skimmers shown in all the videos? NOPE. This one requires ALL work to be done through the front, the screws do NOT come through the inside box - instead there are thick bumps on the inside of the box because the screws go into a housing. I'm not saying it's a bad design. Perhaps it's even a superior design that will keep things leak free. But when it comes time to cut the hole in the liner... if you're counting on working through the inside of the box to mark the screw holes, make the little holes in the liner, THEN screw in through the front --- NOPE. First you have to unscrew all the screws (not in the instructions!!) take the faceplate (which is NOT a flat piece) off, cut a hole in your liner, work the liner up over the faceplate edges - which is pretty much impossible to achieve if you installed the liner where you want it to be. And I mean physically impossible. We had to undo a good section of rock in order to have enough slack in the liner to BARELY, and I mean with sliced and bleeding fingers, get this done. The alternative was un-doing half the rocks. Also, I got to waste around ... 600 gallons of water too, that had to be drained to get below the very long faceplate, NOT just to the bottom of the weir door opening. Again, stupid me - watching video after video after video with common procedures for all skimmers (but none to be found for Little Giant except a stupid pump change video that had nothing to do with the skimmer). And yes, I had slack built into the skimmer side of the liner. So, should you not know what's in store ... You'll be standing in your pond - perhaps you had the audacity to fill the pond to ensure the liner was stretched into the corners so you wouldn't find yourself with a ripped liner at the skimmer if you misjudged the contours - perhaps you had everything all lined up - if you neglect to cut the hole and secure it to the skimmer while everything is dry - you'll find yourself up a creek with only a stick for a paddle. Bottom line- it's a nice product but do yourself a huge favor. 1. take out the screws and the faceplate before placing the skimmer in its excavated hole, set them aside. 2. only fill your pond to 8" below the entire skimmer BOX. 3. Don't rock in the top of your liner anywhere until the liner hole is cut and you've installed this weir door. 4. Remember that NO, you can't work through the inside of the box with a Little Giant skimmer, so IGNORE all the helpful videos. Please learn from my painful mistakes. I like the skimmer. I think it will give us a nice long run, I'm not complaining about any of that. But Little Giant: MAKE A DARN VIDEO and post it to youtube. Little Giant, go over your instructions step by step and recognize that the faceplate screws have to come out IMMEDIATELY.

Works but sub-optimal to clean
I purchased my house with a fish pond installed which I swore I'd fill in once the spring thaw came... I then saw the first fish and started a pump to circulate water and within days had fallen "in love" with the pond. The pond didn't have key features like a skimmer so I went looking for one. I decided on this one since I didn't want to install the skimmer on the side of the lining (I was afraid to cut into the lining) and this one's height was perfect to sit in the bottom of my pond and skim. The skimmer features are great. My pump fits in comfortably on it's side. The skimmer opens/closes okay. The cover has a hole so I can weigh it with sand (otherwise it can float up and tip). The reason I didn't give it 5 stars is that cleaning it is sub-optimal. There are two pieces that occasionally need cleaning. The first is a net which catches the debris that enters the skimmer. The net rests at a side-ways angle and when you pull it up you need to maintain this angle so that it fits in between horizontal bars within the filter. When you pull it out a portion of the debris tips out of the net and stays in the skimmer (thereby going into the pump area). You can then manually scoop out the debris or hope it goes through your pump okay. I wish this had more of a design like a pool filter where almost all of the debris comes out when you clean the filter. The other piece you sometimes need to clean are the brushes that are hung inside. You need to clean these *rarely* (only when they get "clogged" and the filter isn't getting a high-enough rate of water) but when you pull them out the brushes tend to fall of the rod easily because they fill the rod completely and the rod ends are slip-on pieces of rubber that don't hold well. So you can't wash it (easily) as one unit (not a huge deal).

Good product.
Works great, larger than expected, everything was good except all size rubber rings for pipe insert were not included or I would have given 5 stars.

Great value and quality!
I've had this skimmer for 2 seasons now and it has been perfect. survived last winter completely frozen no problem. I did put my 2" Pipe higher than the marked place on the side because I wanted to be able to completely drain the pipe before winter. I also used a 2" bulkhead for the pipe. Other than that installed as recommended and it is great. Pretty easy to level out as well. And the grate helps keep the fish out which is definitely a "great" idea! ;)
