What customers say
This cleaner earns praise for its exceptional cleaning power, easily handling large debris like leaves and acorns, resulting in sparkling pools. Users appreciate the powerful vacuum action and the simple process of emptying the large filter bag, which streamlines maintenance. However, a significant drawback is the recurring concern over long term reliability. Many reports cite premature failure of internal drive components, often within two to three years. While performance is superior when the unit functions, potential buyers should weigh this excellent cleaning capability against the likelihood of needing mechanical repairs sooner than anticipated, which impacts overall value.
