  • Our new TigerShark is more energetic than the 10-year-old one, as expected. We are delighted.
Style: Standard (W3RC9950CUB)
This is what we expected and hoped for. We ordered a new TigerShark to replace the old one we had loved for 10 years. Immediately, we received a new one with a broken arm, wires hanging out, etc. I asked for a return label. Could not make that happen.Hayward offered to send a new arm with info on attaching. Having spent $1,168 for a new cleaner I did not feet competent to rebuild it and finally was able to return the broken new one and waited until the cost was credited on our Visa, then ordered a new one again. We were happy. Thought everything was worked out. Yesterday, however, we received a new arm, which we do not need, of course. Plan to send it back Monday. ... show more

  • Tiger shark pool vacuum
Style: Quick Clean (W3RC9990CUB)
I am disappointed that this sweeper does not climb the walls like ones I have had in the past. It slso tends to stay in the deep end of the pool. Does not like to clean the shallow end.

  • Disappointed in Electrical Cord
Style: Quick Clean (W3RC9990CUB)
I bought the Hayward Robotic Pool Cleaner, but I am very disappointed in the length of the electrical cord. I do not recall the description stating the length of the electrical cord prior to my purchase. But the cord is very short, maybe only 6 ft long. The manual tells you to keep the control box at least 11 1/2 feet away from the edge of the pool to prevent electrical shock. Common sense to me would then say that you have at least a 12 ft cord on the control box. So I cannot keep it 11 1/2 ft away from the edge of the pool because the cord provided is too short. And the manual says do NOT plug into an extension cord because that will possibly cause damage, and your warranty would be voided. So I can't plug it into an extension cord, and I can't plug it in directly to an electrical plug because I do not have one installed in the pool deck close to the pool. So the only place that I can plug the control box in is on an electrical box under the roof of my house. So I have to put it on a ladder, (or a tower of bricks) that is unsafe in my opinion, to plug it directly into the electrical socket, and then I can operate the pool vacuum. I wrote Hayward to ask how I could get a longer electrical cord, but so far I haven't gotten a response. ... show more

  • Updated review - experience after 1 year of ownership (not good)
Style: Quick Clean (RC9990CUB)
I am updating my review and removing stars as a result my experience with the Hayward TigerShark QC after 1 year. Get in the habit of replacing the crappy wheel and roller bearings at least once per year or twice per year (unless you have some option very convenient option of carting the entire thing in for warranty repair). If you are DIY you might want to invest in this available on amazon: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005LTNLDS/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 - with a torx bit it allows you to access the bearings in 5 minutes, as opposed to 30 knuckle-busting minutes. During the first month of ownership, the power supply died ($250 if you have to buy one yourself). This is a very bad product with very bad warranty options. You will also need a supply of bearings on hand - these junk things break in about 6 months and you never know which one will go next. There are 4 roller bearings, 4 belt bearings, 1 drive bearing, and one idler bearing - $20-25 each. And you can't get Hayward to send you the replacement warranty parts if you send yours back - you are stuck paying out of pocket, or getting it for a 3 week servicing at an authorized repair center if there is one in your city. Bottom line, avoid this planned-obsolescence design like the plague or plan on $100-200 per year. Executive Summary: Buy a Maytronics robotic cleaner and avoid the TigerShark. After a year my TigerShark is headed to CraigsList. I was trying to decide whether to go with the Hayward TigerShark or the Maytronics line of cleaners for some time. I decided to give the TigerShark a try. After 3.5 months the power supply quit (easy to check with a volt/ohm meter suggested by an online video), no output on the pins so no power. The robot was fine, the power supply was dead. Hayward corporate of course does nothing to help you, they just point you to an "authorized repair facility" from their directory. Finding an authorized repair center for the TigerShark was a huge hassle in my area since the closest Hayward repair facilities refuse to work on the robotic cleaners. ONE in my city of 6.5 million people - and this is 45 minutes highway drive each away. Nevertheless, trotting the power supply in and getting a warranty replacement 10 days later (another 45 minute x 2 drive), the TigerShark is back in business. Gotta be an easier way to deal with warranty repairs, Hayward, if you are listening. THEN, almost exactly 1 year from purchase I noticed 8 little ball bearings inside the body of the unit. Not in the debris container but rolling around in the body cavity. Come to find out both the drive bearing pulley assembly and the idler bearing pulley assembly have just "come apart". Talking to other owners on troublefreepool I note that this is a common failure in the TigerShark cleaners and I should expect the other 4 ball bearing pulleys to fail just like this. These pulleys are available here for around $25 each and can be replaced by removing the outer covers (a hassle in itself). So the question is: - Do you haul this 40 pound cleaner into a repair facility an hour away and wait 3 weeks for a fix and drive an hour to get it or - Do you just bite the bullet and buy your own parts out of pocket to fix an in-warranty terrible Hayward's design (a yearly chore apparently). This thing contains 10 ball bearing units at $25/per bearing and only one needs to go out to disable the cleaner. - Do you just go buy a Maytronics cleaner and put the TigerShark up on CraigsList. I will be doing the this. Do you think Hayward would send you or exchange the broken parts for DIY replacement even if you're under warranty? Think again, kemosabe. As I noted before, the cleaner cleans the pool sort of haphazardly. It does indeed pick up stuff that a Polaris pressure-side cleaner never would. But it by no means cleans the entire pool (mine is about 40K gal, Z shaped sorta) in one, two, or 10 passes, it just misses areas and sections in it's random wanderings around the pool. I run it most days and sometimes multiple cycles per day, but there are still areas that it just does not get to. A little brushing to move the dirt around and it might pick most of it up. It does not clean benches or steps at all in my opinion. I suspect my pool with corners and steps is not your average "kidney-shaped bowl" that it might have more success with. I have had a number of pressure side cleaners (Polaris versions, Letro Legends) and when these are working well and their sweeps are working well can do a decent job on debris and leaves, not so much sand and silt. The TigerShark is probably the best and most expensive cleaner I have had yet and it does collect sand and silt (stuff you didn't even know was there), but struggles ingesting all but the most minimal amount of leaves and completely ignores steps and benches. It will eventually pick up smaller leaves up but it takes many passes to do so. I think this is pretty much the norm for robotic cleaners. I have a lot of Hayward equipment (pretty much a Totally Hayward installation) and all their stuff is all above average (even though warranty and support requests are a struggle for DIY owners). And if you have older Hayward equipment that is not in their current production, you can be completely sol for parts or support - don't ask me how I know! Bottom line: this is a reasonably priced robotic cleaner that does a reasonable job, but has an unreasonably high failure rate. I would recommend a Maytronics cleaner instead. ------- older review below When it worked, it worked pretty well. Very fiddly to clean out unfortunately - more complicated than changing the oil in your car. Seemed to vacuum up find material very well but struggles with leaves - the larger the more trouble. Quit dead in 3.5 months. Hayward warranty is 90 days. Expensive mistake. ... show more

  • Super cleaner
Style: Standard (W3RC9950CUB)
I had my first shark for 8 years and would have had it longer if it hadn’t got rope, kids left in pool, caught in gears. So after being told that maytronics cleaners were better, I bought one. That was a mistake. Maytronics has great customer service but their vacuums need work. I just purchased another shark and I won’t buy anything else. ... show more
