Cool little sand filter

I got this little sand filter about a week ago it’s just great Comes with a 4000-L/H pump built in the base@ only 40Watts of power. Takes 20kg of sand but I used 15kg of zelbrite. The filter stands around 80cm and 30cm wide. The way I have it set up it pumps the water up 1.4meters and it is so strong for a little pump.
I replaced two 2217 with this filter so I now filter 4000L/H @40W compared to 2000L/H @40Watts for both the eheim’s and the sand filter filters down to 1 micron. No more cleaning out the filters every two months just back wash every water change and replace the sand every two years. I also am very impressed about how quite it runs.
Just thought I would let you all know about this little filter I sure am very happy with it.

Sorry guys but I cannot find a brand name.Going by the instructions it's in Europe somewhere maybe Italy. I am going back to buy another one in two weeks time so I will try and find out more info for you all then.
I am buying them from a pool shop. They sell them for small pools and spas.
