Does this include the filter cartridges?

I had to purchase filters separately. You need 4 cartridges so read the fine print carefully. Some vendors ship individual cartridges and some ship 4 packs. I have tried every kind of filter, and I would say get the Hayward ones. They cost more but they last a long time and work well.

Yes, the one I bought on Amazon did come with a filter. And the plumber who installed it seemed to have all the necessary pieces in the box.

The cartridges are definitely included. They are the standard size / capacity and not the XL long lasting ones. LOVE my printer.

Yes, an extra filter came with the machine. Best purchase I have made in a long time.

I ordered the Aqueon QuietFlow 20 power filter, and it came with 1 filter cartridge. So I'm sure this one comes with a cartridge as well!

It comes with a filter in it. They recommend you put a new filter cartridge in about every 6 months.

Yes. Starter printer cartridges are included, but I bought extra ones anyway.

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

Yes, includes first filter. I am real happy with the unit overall. Good Value -- just plug it in and turn it on. also if you register unit on site, it will send you email reminder of when to replace the filter.

Yes. It comes with two filters in the box. Great price; but it should be emphasized that the package comes with two filters.

No it doesn't. It comes with the pump/filter and filter cartridges, a net, some water treatments, food, the canopy. Pretty much everything you can see in the picture.

Yes. Each package shown contains 2 filters. My unsolicited advice is buy the maximum number of filters as you think you will use because of the shipping charges.

Yes it does. I think they are starter cartridges but cannot recall. But it does come with cartridges

Mine didn't. I did get extra filters, it was not clear that they were "extra"on my order.

I think it came with the filters, you might call them as the pricing depends on whether you set up auto ship for filter replacement.

if this is a new, sealed unit, no, cartridge is not included. Included is 1 headshell, cartridge hardware, and an alignment tool.
