  • It is awesome, beats the pool robots
My Dolphin Nautilus CC, purchased here on Amazon, died after exactly two years. It was a godsend compared to manual cleaning. I really liked that robot but when you consider the price (battery or wire), they just aren't worth it if they don't last. Two years, that was it. Here comes the suction-based Zodiac MX6. I had reservations about this kind of suction device, because I hate the manual suction devices. I was worried objects would get lodged in the hose and/or debris would overload my sand filter, baskets, or pump. I purchased the Zodiac cyclonic basket option, and separately bought the Zodiac brush propeller which add little brushes underneath to scrub the surface as it moves. I also bought a 3rd party skimmer basket (not on Amazon) which has a hole built in to allow the hose to pass through the skimmer. Finally I installed a Circupool TJ-16 cyclonic pre-filter between the pump and sand filter, as an additional effort to minimize debris from overloading the sand filter. All these factors together add up to a reliable system that's better than the Dolphin. The TJ-16 pre-filter is plumbed to empty into a waste line so now everything is even easier to clean. This new setup is phenomenal, the MX-6 works on all speeds with my variable speed pump (max open) and cleans constantly and just as good as the Nautilus did. However this time there will be no motors to wear out, no cables to short, no AC adapters to get fried, nor any batteries to lose charge. The MX6 is half the cost. There's a little bit of a learning curve to tweak things just right, and it got stuck (at first) on a ladder, but now I'm super impressed by it. It runs automatically without any hassle and I expect it to last much longer than any robot. Parts or replacements are much easier to come by and much more cost-effective, too. Super highly recommended, I think this solves pool cleaning. ... show more

  • Best poolboy I've ever owned.
I've owned a long line of suction side poolboys, and this one actually gets the pool cleaned. In the northeast we get algae infestations constantly. This little guy crawls 90% of our16x32 octagon pool every day. It also is really good on the walls and around the water line. This is the first year I have not had to scrub the pool walls, and hand vacuum daily to make up for the poolboy's inadequacies in the 30 years we've had the pool. If you can swing it, buy the Scrubbing Turbine Assembly. It takes a minute to install and makes a world of difference in cleaning the stuck on crud from the pool. The only gotchas I've seen are: Sometimes it gets hung up on the code required bottom drain grilles, but flipping the filter on and off will get things moving again,. If you have fiber optic perimeter lighting, you need to make sure your pool is at the proper water level, not overfull, and your fiber rope is perfectly in the tracks, or it will grab the rope, pop it out of the track, and get tangled up in it. This one is strictly operator error. Any tracked pool cleaner will do either of the above. I think this poolboy is worth the money, even if it wears out in a season. It just does the job. ... show more

  • DO NOT BUY!!
The vaccum hose is garbage. Each link of the hose allows for air to enter and prime/suction to be lost. They have added a water bleed-in at the dead end of the hose in an effort to alleviate the issue, but it requires that you have an in-ground pool with a built in vaccum line dedicated to nothing BUT vaccuming so that the bleed in can sit IN the water inside the pool wall. I have only one pump and my vaccum connects at my skimmer. The connection it came with only allows for vertical connection. Having the hose go OVER the pool wall rather than through it (becuase the hose is too stiff to turn that hard that quickly) puts too much pressure on the pump to suck water through a hole riddled hose. I bought a 90° transition and over filled the pool to ensure it is submerged fully and at the proper angle... but the skimmer doesn't function as well when things cant float in at the waterline normally (compensating by overfilling). Too low of a waterline just lets more air into the line. I got tired of fighting it so I use a different brand hose that only has TWO ends and doesn't come apart (less transitions means less opportunities to suck in unwanted air). The vaccum itself seemed okay at first, but starting with a fresh new pool made it hard to tell it wasn't working. The vaccum was recommended to me by google and amazon for an above ground pool. It had reviews by people with above ground pools. Above ground pools are never perfect or 100% smooth and this vaccum misses mostly everything. SMALL leaves get caught in the fins inside the machine's system AND the hose before it could ever make it to the leaf filter it came with. Even without leaves to pick up, it misses entire sections of my pool floor becuase it gets caught up or goes around on the smallest bit of uneven ground, wrinkles, slopes. The suction (even with my good hose) isn't enough to suck debree out of the deepest of holes that the vaccum DOES go over despite NOOO bleed in of air (I am talking PERFECT prime! No bubbles or lost suction. My alternate/good hose has given me a bruise when it stuck to me accidentally while trying to hold onto it under water while readjusting things... but that suction cant seem to pull enough to thoroughly clean the uneven floor. Even if my floor WAS 100% smooth, the nice extra wide foam cove I have is not curved enough to let the vaccum climb the walls. And it can't back itself out of the corner from which it often gets stuck. You essentially just can't leave this thing unsupervised... but I bought an automatic vaccum so I could LEAVE and come back in a few hours and see progress. Complete waste. The leaf container? This was a good idea. It is EVERYTHING. It is easy to use, filters put large debree before hitting my good hose, my skimmer filter, my pump filter, or my sand filter. It is the only thing worth a damn and it didn't even come in the same box. Don't buy the vaccum or its hose. Complete waste of money. Seller will not work with you on a return either. I didn't realize it was such a short return or I would have never purchased it knowing I would be going out of town for over a month within mere days of its arrival. They will tell you to speak to someone else becuase the stuff they sell isn't their problem. ... show more

  • Great value
This is only the second time I’ve reviewed an item twice. Couldn’t help myself as this product exceeds my expectations by a mile. Cleanest my pool has been in as long as I have owned this home (5yrs). Its paddle system works great and it climbs the walls WITHOUT breaking suction like my old unit. Great product for the price. ... show more

  • Powerful Vaccuum
I like this product. This was easy to assemble and this product works great. However, the leaf canister that came with the product didn't work as expected. It sucks in a lot of air, which puts pressure on the pool motor. I have reached out to the seller, however so far no help.

  • It’s pretty good….
Okay, so, a little bit about our pool: We live in the high desert, got palms in the neighborhood. Does this replace my regular ‘rounds with my pool vacuum? No. Do I still skim with the net? Yes. No I brush the sides? Yes. The unit has an issue with palm fronds, the fronds gets wrapped around the blades and stop the unit from moving. If we have a big windstorm and a lot of palms end up in the pool, I net and vacuum, then I start this running again. I run mine all the time, mostly, and I have noticed a remarkable difference in the pool quality, it does a nice job. For my size pool, I did have to buy extra tubing, and I did get the cyclonic leaf catcher. It does a nice job, a good tool…. better than paying $200 a month for a pool company to stop by once a week! ... show more

  • Great pool cleaner
This is our second Zodiac MX6 pool cleaner, and we were so happy with the first one that we didn’t hesitate to buy another. Our first MX6 lasted almost 5 years, which is impressive considering how much use it gets. It does a great job keeping our pool clean and saves us a lot of time and effort. Easy to use, dependable, and a great value for the price. Highly recommend! ... show more
