This cleaner has got it own pump? And it can clean also the pool walls? Thanks

You do not need an additional pump like the Polaris. the unit provides its own movement via water jets controlled by a DC motor that is out of the water. It does clean pool walls but I suggest that you brush the walls one a week. The unit functions very well for cleaning my pool.

This is operated off of your house power and not your pool power like other ones. It also does the walls. I have seen ones that do a better job, but for this price range I am very happy with mine.

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.

One year we had a pump. It was completely useless and brings the price of what I think of a "disposable" pool way up. This summer we got the one without the pump. It's the same deal. We keep it covered, add chlorine every day, and use a skimmer. We empty it and refill it every week or two. It has stayed pretty clean so far and it gets used on a regular basis. Our dog even likes to play in it. Hope this was helpful. :-D

Yes it is, just be sure it's on a level surface (I set mine on a couple of pavers next to the pool) and also that you have the proper amount and type of filter sand before hand. A warning: I don't believe the pump is strong enough to operate a pool vacuum.

It does have a sweeping action and no, it does not need a booster pump. It runs on the suction side of the pump system.

This is actually a cleaner with a little suction motor powered by the return water pressure. Mine didn't work well either. Save a lot of money and get better results by getting a simple vacuum head and vacuuming the algae to waste. That cleared my pool in a few minutes.

Yes, it does an excellent job of climbing and cleaning all walls, even on my oddly shaped pool with built in stairs. It is much more thorough on the walls than my old Aquabot. It has no problems with main drains. It has never gotten stuck on a drain.

not really, it will pickup debris ( hair, leaves etc. from the bottom) you usually will need a sand and dirt filter pump for that, or keep cleaning and refilling the pool when too much sand and dirt accumulates in the bottom.

Have no problem on our pool. Best cleaner I have had so far, very pleased with it.

It might. Consider the angle on the bottom of your pool. If you bottom has a gentle slope this product can probably clean it. If your pool has steeper slopes, spend the money on a model specific for in ground pools. This model will not climb walls. If you want your walls cleaned also get a better model.

I would not use an "automatic" pool cleaner. Get it out, or nearly all, "by hand." Otherwise you will ruin pumps.

No, it's a vacuum. It works off the suction provided by your pool to suck up dirt and debris.

No it does not run the cleaner not enough horsepower. I had bought the pool rover he does a good job but does not scrub the bottom. I would recommend buying a cleaner with scrubber on it.

Well, it does not. It is only for cleaning the walls and floor, which was very poor on our pool.

I have the intex auto pool cleaner. It is amazing. Was shocked to see that it sucked up the fine Florida sugar sand from the bottom of my pool.

I returned the SharkVac. It didn't do the job...did not climb the walls and did not do a great job cleaning the entire pool. I bought a Dolphin Premier and am happy with its performance. It has two rollers.

Our pool is 7/8th of the way in-ground and it has a liner. The pool rover works well getting all around the pool as it cleans the bottom. It does not go up the walls. It picks up everything but the finest silt though. Our pool filter takes care of that when there is a lot of activity in the pool. Overall, it makes the job of pool cleaning so much easier! It works much better than our old cleaner which hooked up to the filter system. Hope this helps.
