Does this really clean everything off the top of the pool surface?

Yes it does clean everything off the top of the pool surface. We run it, non-stop, taking it out only when the pool is in use. Well worth the money. We did add one length on hose to it, as we have a very large pool.

I net my pool before I place my vacuum in the pool I would suggest to try and remove all larger objects but this vacuum does a wonderful job totally love it !!!!!! Hope this helps.

I get some blowback of dirt, but not enough to keep the device from doing an adequate cleaning job. It gets only about 75% of the leaves. Bottom line, the pool is not as clean as you can get it by hand, vacuuming through a skimmer, but it's pretty good, and, I've had no algae problem. I would try it for an cycle or two before returning it.

Mine has never done that. Sounds like you have a defective unit. I would contact the manufacturer if I was you. Normally they run for about a 1 hour cleaning cycle and shut off. I have a larger pool (18'x36' oval) and I usually have to run it through two cycles to completely clean the pool.

I have a 18 x 33 above ground pool and it cleans it very well. I should have bought one years ago. Love it.

Yes it picks up everything and I never have a problem getting someone to clean the pool. There are 2 filters a netted one and a micro fiber I use both together and it removes big things and everything else. I was without filtration for about 10 days waiting for it to be fixed and without this I would have been over run with a mess. I love it.

No, it does not. I got some of those foam interlocking floor squares and placed the pool on top of those.

This is not a pressure cleaner. The poolcleaner acts as a vacuum. It connects to your intake valve inside your pool (either the pool skimmer, or intake valve located on the inside of your pool). The suction of the intake value powers the Poolcleaner, which moves in every direction on your pool floor, picking up leaves, and debris. As a pool cleaner, I highly recommend this product.

Yes. It removes everything. It reduces TDS to zero. Be aware that this water is NOT suitable for drinking. It is intended for special decontamination situations such as saltwater aquariums.

It does a good job of picking up everything - my pool was dark green & in 3 weeks I had the water clear - The only things I did to it was shock , algaecide , run the Dolphin & backwash - The machine comes with 2 sets of filters - one is a finer filter to pick up much smaller particles - I used that one after picking up the bigger debris with the first one - So I would say yes , it does pick up dead algae -

Yes. It does a good job. I have also heard from our pool maintenance person that it is the easiest on the liner (as compared to other brands).

Yes it works, I was skeptical, but it works. Just clean the area inside pool, cut a piece of vinyl big enough to cover hole, cover patch with vinyl cement and get it in there over hole quickly, then put gentle pressure on patch. Pool fixed.

It should work the same as it does for an above-ground pool - meaning that it will only clean the bottom and any slopes. It does not climb the sides of the pool like those that are especially made for in-ground pools.

Yes it does. Note when lifting the cleaner up from the water, some water with algae will leak back to the pool. So lift fast.

Yes. I think it does help. Not greatly. But it forms a very thin layer on the surface. Even if you break the surface, the film will come back together. I'm sure it's main purpose is conservation when no one is in the pool. But it helps keep my pool water stay warm overnight, on cool nights.

I've not had any problems with this auto pool cleaner. It work's great! I have an above ground pool and I vacuum it every other day. I'm very pleased with it so far. Also my pool is not real smooth on the bottom. I have some wrinkles to and I had concerns after buying it. But no problems with it running on around on the bottom.

No this does not clean algea from the bottom of the pool... The most it will do is stir it up & you can hope the filter gets some of it...
