Does the filter include a cartridge?

The filter is integrated into the cartridge. It is not separate. There are replacements available on Amazon and usually last 1 year of use.

No it does not, but every filter is packed in a single plastic hard cover, just like the old gameboy games ;)

It does come with the cartridges. I have heard they are not replaceable though, so apparently you throw it all away once it no longer filters well. I keep mine in a ziploc bag when not in use to keep it from wearing out. The resealable bag it comes in is pretty flimsy.

Yes, a filter came with it. I have filtered water from my refrigerator door so I never replaced the filter in the machine. It works great.

I bought mine several years ago and it did not come with a filter cartridge. There are several filter options available. I'm using the R50-BBSA Level 1 50 Micron HD filter and it works well for my application. I replace it approximately three times a year.

No internal filter. You'll need to install an in line cartridge filter. Filter type depends on water quality

Yes, it does. My friend has been using it since April and still has the original cartridge (and still loves it)!

Been a while. I don't remember but I think it included the cartridge. It's straight forward, still working.

Yes it does. Mine was an older system with a smaller filter cartridge. The intake holes were different and the replacement cartridge wad bigger, much bigger. Once installed, it fit in the space available, has worked fine for two months and no leaks. I have gone mindless about it now as I subscribed for this product for deliver every six months, so when it arrives, I will just replace the current one.

there was a cartridge included but it had to be replace within a short time. this is a very bad device, I have never used a printer before that gave you a "blue screen of death" but this one does about 3x a week.

Yes- it comes with a cartridge. If you clean your cartridge on a regular basis and do not let your pool turn "green" it will last for years. There is also a cartridge cleaning spray you can use on them that opens up the pores in the filter and will extend it's life. Again- cleaning is importantGood Luck with your pool

Yes it did. I am still using it. However, I believe it is a starter cartridge.

Under "Frequently Bought Together" on the product page, it shows the filter cartridges. I haven't changed mine yet but the filter is housed in the cylinder part of the shower head. Sprite Hand Held Filter Cartridge 4-pack
