Can I use the Aquabot Classic in an ABOVE ground pool?

I don't know. I am using it in my in-ground. It does climb the walls. Personally, I wish I would have bought the remote control version since I do have problems getting complete coverage. The Bot tends to stay in the center deepest portion of my pool and goes side to side forever. I am constantly pushing/guiding it to other directions but at some point it will always go bad to the center of pool. :( It does a good job but remote might be a better choice.

This unit is designed for In-ground pools, but there is no reason it can not work in above ground pools as well.

I have the frog log in my in ground pool, the water level is about 10 inches below. I think it would work in an above ground pool as long as the waterline is not more than 10" below the decking.

I purchased one of these and am pleased with it... But isn't it designed for above ground pools?

Yes. We use it on an Intex above ground pool & it works fine. You will need to purchase pole & hose separately, since it does not come with vacuum head.

Yes I am sure someone quite clever could configure a steel pole with bracket to attach to for your above ground pool. Better to buy the unit and have the pole and bracket made to fit the Solaxx so it sits at the correct water level.

I use it on an inground pool and it works great. Do not know of it will work well with an above ground pool.

I use mine in a 10,000 gal above ground pool. it would work great. You can get the remote which is connected by a telephone cord, to turn it off an on.

My grandson uses this in a above ground pool so this is not a problem. Sorry.

I'm not sure if it will work in an above ground pool. However, on the vertical walls of our in ground pool, it climbs and does its work very, very well. It does an exceptional job on the bottom and we are very pleased with it.

Yes, this is for an above ground pool. I am quite pleased with the one that I purchased, actually feels slightly thicker than the liner that initially came with the above ground pool that I have.

Yes it could. It is a little big for an above ground pools, unless you have a lot of leaves in the pool. You hook a garden hose to it, which creates an updraft in the water, drawing up the leaves into a screen mesh bag. There is an optional fine mesh bag ($9.95) that would hold smaller debris. It puts water in the pool while it is working, so it fills the pool. This is not a big deal with an in ground pool because of the much larger size of the pool.

I would like to find an attachment as well. With my previous inground pool I had no problem but above ground is different.

I currently use it with an Intex pool. I do not know if it can be used with an above ground pool.

My pool is 6' in the deep end. It does ok. My previous Aquabot functioned better however I paid allot more money for it. It's repair costs were prohibitive. This device has fewer parts and should hold up better. This device has a (1) hour setting and (3) hour setting. It will take longer to clean your pool so once it shuts off, turn the switch off and on and it will repeat itself. Good luck!

Its great for above ground pools. It does not hurt the liner. Living in AZ i get a lot of dust and have to clean the microfilter frequently or it slows the suction.

My pool is in ground. I think the description may be a typo. I doubt any above ground pool would include such a sophisticated filtering system.
