Great Value Automatic Vacuum!
Size: 1600-3500 gal/h Pump Flow Rate Required Style: ZX300 Color: ZX300
Purchased this vacuum back in the spring of 2021 and it has been an absolutely awesome product! I was weary based on the price point ($169) back then, and the fact that some of the reviews weren't great. If I had to guess, the people writing those reviews didn't know how to use the vacuum properly. First of all, the vacuum will not necessarily help with cloudiness in your pool. The vacuum operates off of the outlet hose from your pump/filter, not the suction inlets like you would think. The vacuum has a screen on the inside that catches the majority of debris in the pool, but will not get rid of calcium or floc as it will just go through the screen. As long as you keep your filter clean and the internal screen clean, this product will work phenomenal and walk right up the walls of your pool. It has very good suction and operates off of a mechanical gearset that doesn't require any electronics or human input, just the input from your pump. It does a great job of picking up leaves, sand, bugs, etc, and it does a great job of scrubbing the waterline of your pool to get rid of the waterline spots. After a few uses, the suction became very weak and I thought that the product was bad. It turns out, there is a very small screen at the outlet where the hose connects to the pump that will get clogged up with small amounts of sand that pass through your filter. If you take the hose off and clean this filter every other time, it will keep your vacuum running strong, and it will keep the sand out of the gearset inside the vacuum. The vacuum operates off of what I assume is a timed reverse trigger that will automatically make the vacuum go in the opposite direction after so many revolutions of the wheels. This way, the vacuum is always making random passes and does a very good job at covering the entire pool and not getting stuck in certain areas. It will float at the waterline on the wall for around 30 seconds, and then reverse and go the other way. I used this vacuum every day of the season last year and it did an wonderful job in our 18' above ground pool. I never once had to get out the manual vacuum other than to get rid of calcium/floc after a clarifier treatment. We run a 2,100 GPM pump/sand filter, and it is plenty powerful for the vacuum. If you keep your pump filter clean, the screen in the vacuum clean, and the outlet sand screen clean regularly, this will be a huge time saver for you and a great, inexpensive way to get an automated pool vacuum that will do a great job at keeping your pool free of debris on the walls and bottom. PS, we named ours Wallie! ... show more

For a while it was great
Size: 1600-3500 gal/h Pump Flow Rate Required Style: ZX300 Color: ZX300
Worked very well for a while, it did exactly what it designed to do, until the wheel broke off! One of the 4 drive wheels snapped off at the unit frame. No one had messed with it nor was it dropped or stepped on. I found the wheel at the bottom of the pool as the unit was trying to move up the side of the pool but it was just going to the top and could not crawl down. It lasted only a few weeks. Update: I ran a stainless steel bolt through the broken wheel mount bracket and we are back in business!!! Next to the crawling out of the pool, I think it was designed for freshwater not saltwater, the two blue weight compensators (balls), located inside the unit are two buoyant so I add some stainless steel weights to each side where the OEM weights are lowering it’s static ability to float, after some trial and error and 4 ounces on each side it can crawl up to and then back down from the edge of the water without getting stuck at the top!!!! Since I had to do the R n D and the math to compensate for the amount of lift, I am only giving it 4 stars. I WOULD still buy it, and now it does work very well. If you have a saltwater pool, add the weights to it you will be much happier. Another update Now the reverse drive gear mount broke at the small bearing. Great idea great design poor production. Higher quality components in the drive system would make it one of the best units available. To the manufacturer, spend a few cents more and convert the plastic drive to stainless. Note the extra weight would not have effected the eccentric drive gear, it is isolated from the gear train. If I weren't having a good time fabricating the parts, I'd throw it away. If you're not into fabricating broken parts or don't have a machine shop, I would keep looking. ... show more

Excellent for price!!!
Size: 1600-3500 gal/h Pump Flow Rate Required Style: ZX300 Color: ZX300
I don’t know how I bought this for $69, it was used, very good. The box had been opened but everything was there I guess. I had this assembled and running in about fifteen minutes. I didn’t have very high expectations because $69 is not much for a pool vacuum!!! But this thing got to work yall!!! In about an hour it had the pool debri free, dust free. And I’m dealing with spring pollen, two live oaks shedding leaves, and two pecan trees dropping their little catapillar buds!!! Now… I am running it off a 2500 gph type “b” cartridge pump. I also have a 2500 gph sand filter running a skimmer. It’s also a 15’x48” round above ground pool(roughly 5300 gallons). I had gotten rid of my regular intex style return jet/fitting and replaced it with a 3/4” pvc pipe with an elbow to help direct the water flow BACK into the pool. So the way I set it up was to just use a regular hose clamp and clamp the hose around a 3/4” pvc straight pipe as the RETURN jet. I’m also super impressed that it could climb the walls so well. I mean it gets out of the water and the brush scrubs that little water line where fine debri tries to find a home. Overall, super little vacuum for the price. I ordered another one, even though they’re $100 now! ... show more

Pretty Good for Price
Size: 1600-3500 gal/h Pump Flow Rate Required Style: ZX300 Color: ZX300
We have a big tree within 8' of our pool, had cooler temps early in the summer and have had a lot of rain this season. That said, we have not been in it as much due to the cold water and have struggled keeping the bottom of the pool clean. Normally, getting in the pool daily and cleaning out the leaves with a net while disturbing the sediment on the bottom, to filter out, would keep the bottom and water clean. We have a 15' Summer Waves pool with a 1500 GPH pump/filter/skimmer (2018-$600). This pool pump works well as a skimmer as long as the basin and filter are cleaned daily. It does not address sediment on the bottom of the pool. We decided to add an additional pump/filter to the pool and purchased a used Bestway 2500 GPH pump (2021-$100). It kept the water crystal clear but did not clean the bottom. We added the Intex 28005E Cleaner (June21, 2021-$185) and it works well with the Bestway pump (we had to purchase an adapter for an additional $25.00). The Cleaner is a very interesting design which picks up leaves well and some small sediment from the bottom while at the same time stirring up the fine sediment for the pool pump to filter out. After cleaning for about 2 hours, the bottom looks about 95% clean. It struggles to clean around wrinkles, seams and "stuck on dirt". It's very cool how it cleans the sides. Shortly after the Cleaner is removed, you will see the fine sediment settle back at the bottom. Be careful to remove the Cleaner and Entire Hose from the pool when cleaning out the bottom capture bin or sediment will go back in the pool. Overall we are happy with this cleaner. (I see Amazon is now selling it a month later for $65 less than i paid. What's up Amazon!!!) RATINGS: The suction power is based solely on the pump. It works very well with our 2500 GPH. I paid $185 because I needed something and it looked like the best choice available at the time. But for what it is, I think $185 is a bit high, especially since Amazon is selling it now for $120.00. It is very easy to clean. SIDENOTE: The pool we had before was a 16' Intex with inflatable ring. It came with a much better 1500 GPH pump and filter/skimmer design than the Summerwave 1500 pump/filter/skimmer. ... show more

Does not clean well
Size: 1600-3500 gal/h Pump Flow Rate Required Style: ZX300 Color: ZX300
Does not work as well. It does pick up some debris, very little but it does not do a good job of picking enough to cleaning the whole pool. It gets stuck, and then you have to come out and move it. It should not because it can climb the walls and turn and so forth by just the force of the pump. I also have an oversize pump so there’s enough force in the water pressure all in all , I attempted return however Amazon offered me like 30 bucks not to return it so I took the $30. Why I kept it, because of the spout at the top ; I think it moves the water a little bit better than the jet /single jet in the side of the pool. I will post a video also. ... show more

Learn how to use them and make sure you have a larger pump
Size: 1600-3500 gal/h Pump Flow Rate Required Style: ZX300 Color: ZX300
I absolutely love these vacuums. You have to have the more powerful pump for them to work properly. Cut the hose to where it can reach all of the pool but no more. The end pieces screw onto the hose, it is reverse threaded (unscrew to tighten). I have had 5 total.I have had this pool going on 7 years now. I take my ladder out and leave the pump and vacuum on 24/7-365 when nobody is in the pool. I am in Alabama and never close the pool. A couple of times I have had a couple of inches of ice and the vac is still going! They are a hundred bucks. They are made of plastic wheels and gears and 24/7 wears them out in a years time. Put cotton balls or magic erasers in the filter and it catches the micro particles. If it just sits there and spins, it is because you have a coating of algae on the surface of your pool. Brush it and then vacuum. I brush while vacuum if this happens. I kept the filters from the worn out ones and just swap out when it starts getting slower. Yes, I run my pump 24/7 and it saves TONS in chemicals! I buy a new vacuum every winter when they go down in price. Again, I LOVE them! ... show more

The Little Pool Robot That Turns Cleaning Time Into Relaxing Time

I’m very impressed with this automatic pool cleaner. It has a clean, modern design and looks strong, practical, and easy to use. The compact shape makes it look simple to handle, while the wheels and brush design give it a powerful and efficient appearance for pool cleaning. What I like most is how convenient it feels for keeping the pool cleaner with less manual effort. It looks perfect for picking up dirt, debris, and everyday buildup from the pool floor, helping the water area look fresher and more inviting. The design feels smart, sturdy, and well made, and it gives confidence that pool maintenance can be easier and less time-consuming. Overall, this is a great product for anyone who wants a cleaner pool without doing all the hard work by hand. I’m very happy with it and would definitely recommend it. ... show more

Had a used one for a season that worked wonderful. The belt broke and since I needed new brushes. Expensive by themselves I decided to buy this and replace the used one. This one did not work like the old one at all. Will not clean the whole pool. Goes back and forth over the same area and does not clean the walls well either. ... show more
