Above Ground Swimming Pool Vacuum Cleaner

This is a great little pool cleaner for small jobs. We ordered it because we have both a baby pool and a hot tub. The baby pool is attached to the main pool but it doesn’t have good skimmers, and of course the kids track grass, rock and debris into it so cleaning it can be a real issue. We have an automatic pool cleaner, but sometimes we still find ourselves manually cleaning crevices, steps and small corners. The hot tub also collects sediments in certain areas, especially on the seats. This little gadget allows you to target all of those areas easily, quickly, and efficiently. It is handheld so you can make that hour of active cleaning last a bit longer if you turn it off we’re not actively using. Operation is super easy, directions are very clear. It does arrive in pieces, you will need to assemble it but I am remembering it’s only a few main pieces. The best features in this product is that it’s small, easy to operate, maneuverable, reaches crevices, and cordless. It’s basically the equivalent of a hand vac for your pool.

This is an affordable product. It has really good suction and is very easy and quick to use as well as clean. Highly recommend.

Is it Generic? Yes. Is it worth the $? Absolutely. My boyfriend and I bought a house in June with a pool. Since neither one of us had owned a pool in the past, we hired a pool company for monthly maintenance and service. My boyfriend has been telling me since then that we weren't getting our money's worth. We finally decided to get a pool vacuum for the pool since our pool was constantly green. Well, we decided to test this out yesterday, and it's been in our pool ever since. With the help of a local pool company, we were able to get the pool from swampy to sparkling in a mere 24 hours. Then, this product sucked up all the dead algae, dirt, and "stuff" our pool people couldn't do. Even if we have to buy one every year, it will STILL be worth it! Oh, it did took a while to figure out the weights. And sometimes we still have to guide it to the shallow end, but it's a small price to pay. So, needless to say, this will be saving me $100+ a month. Deuces, pool maintenance company. Hello freedom!

So my sweeper broke again as it does every 2nd year after the warranty runs out. My pool man quoted me $400 for a new one and this time, I told him to wait while I searched online for a better deal. Am so glad i did that cause now i found this above ground vacuum cleaner. Thank you, one of my best purchases.

I wish that I’d have discovered this cleaner a long time ago. In one day it does the job my old cleaner took days to accomplish and I didn’t have to go drag it around with the pool broom.If you’re still on the fence about this cleaner it’s probably because you’re looking at similar units for three times the price and wondering what’s wrong with this one. Well, buy this one and send me the other $200 if it makes you feel better. In reality I’m trying to figure out how the other brands are getting the prices they do.I had this out of the box, assembled, and running in my pool in about 15 minutes. My secret? I read the instructions. That took 3 minutes of the total 15. Remember the scene from Finding Nemo where the fis in the Dentist’s aquarium stopped up the filter? The tank got green and nasty, but the next day the dentist had replaced the filter and the water was instantly clear? Yeah- that’s pretty much my experience with this unit.

I ordered one of these lo-budget pool cleaners yesterday and got it today. No ideas how long it might last, obviously, but I can report that it worked pretty much flawlessly pretty much immediately.Some people complained that they had to adjust the unit several times before it covered the whole pool. I got lucky, and it started doing the whole pool right away. In any case, I have had to make those same adjustments on every brand-name vacuum I have ever used. So far this one hasn’t got caught on the stairs. It might, eventually. All the brand-name vacuums did from time to time.Unless the thing self-destructs in the next few weeks, or dissolves into toxic gases which poison me … I cannot see any downside to buying this unit.
