Screwfix Sentinel filter

[Best]

Screwfix deal of day is Sentinel 22mm magnetic filter.
Think it is £69
Never used this type. Wonder are these any good?

Why don't you try it and review it for us.

Could be a good thing!

Buy 50 of them, charge 2 hours to install each of them, and in 6 months time tell us how you've wasted 4 hours on each of them due to faults.

Only being cynical!!

They're only cheap because they're crap, or because, they bought a shipload of them and they can't get rid of them.

I was hoping somebody had been the guinea pig and bought these filters in the past. :smile:
Good to hear views of plumbers rather than varying types of Screwfix reviewers.
I see it has 4 magnets, but I will give it a miss

I saw salus were doing one for about 50 quid

Alternatively, you could buy the same product from us, and get a tub of X100 and a tub of X800 thrown in for just £59.95 + VAT

Feedback is still hard to come by. It needs a couple of years in the field before we will know.

[edit - not a "deal of the day" - this offer runs until Xmas]

That is a real deal! I am sure some of these cheaper magnetic filters are decent

I got a freebie sentinel filter before, cyclone i think it was called. Didnt like the look of it at all so never fitted it. 4 tiny magnets in it that arnt very strong.

From my experience in this game buy cheap tat and you get problems you only got yourself to blame.

Not good filters, as said the magnets are small, and they dont come right out for cleaning!! Not the best for splitting apart either. +1 for TF1's
