 Great pool cleaner! |

I bought this after my Hayward Navigator died, mainly because it cost half as much and it was the least expensive in-ground cleaner that people seem to be happy with from what I can see on the Internet. After using it I found that it is really a great cleaner. It seems to be especially resistant to jamming compared to the Navigator, which would get small pebbles or twigs caught in it's turbine.
It comes with some nice translucent hose sections which seem more flexible than what I get a the pool store. It also has an adapter for a dedicated cleaner port (if you have one) a telepole attachment so that it can be used manually and a flow gauge.
It does clean the shallow end of my pool and seems especially good at scrubbing the walls. It does occasionally get stuck on the pool light (of all places)
The manual does not say that it is not designed to clean the shallow end. It does say that it will spend most of it's time is the deep end, but that is normal for non-robotic cleaners.
I wouldn't trade it for a new Navigator even though they cost twice as much.

| I had this same cleaner and it lasted about 4 years. I have a 20 x 40 inground pool that does not have a main drain so this does the job of cleaning the floor and circulating the water for about 8 hours a day. My pool is about 10 ft deep so we keep the pump going an average of 8 hours a day and it did what it had to do! Being on that many hours a day for about 4 years seems reasonable to me. I had no problems with it going all over the pool, including the "shallow" end-but I did have to make sure I had the right amount of hose in order to allow it to get to the entire pool area. I highly recommend this pool cleaner! |

| I am so glad I found this product. When my inground pool was new 10 years ago we had the same automatic vacuum cleaner. My granddaughter though she could "take a ride" on the vacuum and she broke it! When we purchased the vacuum the company was called Sta-Rite.; I looked for that product but couldn't find it. In the intrum I purchased another automatic cleaner that I HATED!! I started to surf the net looking for a new vacuum system when I finally found this one - I immediately recognized the picture and bought it on the spot. Shipping was very quick and the price of this pool vacuum is excellent!! It's great because you don't need any tools and you don't have to calibrate anything, just plug it in and it works!! It does a great job in cleaning the pool - it also will creep up the walls and works on the stairs too!! I will never use another vacuum as long as this one is available. |
