This is very good deal on the price for ten (10) chlorine tablets --5lbs container. Review: Great chlorinating tablets... - Full Disclosure: I received this product free of charge [desertcart Vine program] in exchange for my true, honest, and unbiased product review and evaluation, which follows: These Pool Essentials 3" chlorinating tablets are awesome. These quality tablets seem very well formulated with high quality ingredients. And I love the fact that they are made in the USA, as most leading brands of chlorinating tablets are...but not all. These full size 3" tablets have a UV-Stabilizer built-in to help protect the chlorine from excess burn off and extend the life of the tablets in warm/hot climates...perfect for Arizona pools. I also like the fact that these tablets are individually wrapped, making handling and storage safer and easier. The formulation of these chlorine tablets [81% available chlorine] seems about perfect for effective water treatment, without the overly harsh chlorine smell/feel/taste. These Pool Essentials chlorine tablets are on par (in quality) with the leading brands, and are a slightly better value. And they seem to last every bit as long as the leading brands, but I will not know for sure until the dog-days-of-summer when chlorine demand is at its highest. These tablets come packaged in a very nice, child safe plastic pail. Please know that the value is not so great when buying 5-pound buckets, but is still decent compared to leading brands, and these tablets are available in other sizes including a 50-pound pail, which is a much better value...and I will be buying the 50-pound bucket going forward. Bottom line, these Pool Essentials 3" chlorine tablets are great! They offer excellent quality, and when buying in bulk, they are a solid value. These quality chlorine tablets will help keep your pool water in great condition all season long. All things considered, I will definitely order again, and as such, I highly recommend...but do yourself a favor and buy in bulk. Thank you for taking time to read my review. With all opinions being subjective, please know that this review is true, honest, and germane to the expressed/intended use of the product (unless otherwise noted), with the greatest consideration given to actual product quality and value. And I sincerely hope this review helps you in making a more informed purchasing decision. ## Features - Cleans Water: Kills bacteria & controls algae - Long-Lasting: Slow-dissolving santizer with built-in sunlight protector - Easy Application: Apply chlorinating tablets to your feeder, skimmer or floater - Usage: Apply 2 tablets weekly to treat 10,000 gallons of water, add more tablets as needed to maintain proper sanitization levels - Model #: 33005ESS, 3 inch Chlorinating Tablets (5LB) ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0GLRBH6J7 | | Best Sellers Rank | #4,645 in Patio, Lawn & Garden ( See Top 100 in Patio, Lawn & Garden ) #42 in Swimming Pool Chlorine | | Brand Name | Pool Essentials | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (22) | | Item Form | Tablet | | Item Type Name | Chlorinating Tablets | | Item Weight | 5 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Pool Essentials | | Product Benefits | Controls Algae, Kills Bacteria, Maintains Clean Sanitized Water | | UPC | 014746649409 | | Unit Count | 80.0 Ounce | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Pool Essentials - **Item Form:** Tablet - **Item Weight:** 5 Pounds - **Product Benefits:** Controls Algae, Kills Bacteria, Maintains Clean Sanitized Water - **UPC:** 014746649409 ## Images ![Pool Essentials® 3" Swimming Pool Chlorinating Tablets, Kills Bacteria & Controls Algae, 5LB - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/717yCUvs4YL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A great deal *by R***R on March 27, 2026* Chlorine tabs came very well packed and no damage to the tablets.

I have other tabs that are 99% tri-chlor that are more expensive but with more chlorine content. Depending on what the other 10% is, you maybe trading a lower price for additives that may have an adverse effect on your pool's cyanuric acid or calcium levels if tabs are all you use to chlorinate. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/810227420-pool-essentials-3-swimming-pool-chlorinating-tablets-kills-bacteria-controls](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/810227420-pool-essentials-3-swimming-pool-chlorinating-tablets-kills-bacteria-controls) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-06-02*
