Is it only for Vinyl pools or does it work on concrete pools as well, I have pebble tec pool

This model is for vinyl pools, but there is one for concrete pools as well. We love our little pool cleaner, it does a fantastic job, in less than 2 hours. Look for the concrete or gunite one, and you won't be sorry!

I think the only difference between using it in a vinyl vs a concrete pool is the type of pads on the feet. Cork for vinyl and some type of rubber compound for concrete.

I believe it is intended for vinyl pools. That's what we have. It does a great job.

I depends how quickly you notice and remove debris and the type of debris. I live in Phoenix with a pebble tec pool and I have replaced the a-frame once, 2 years ago. If you have a lot of rocks falling in your pool it will cause an issue.

I need an answer to this very question as well. So far the answers seems to conflict each other. Anyone else have experience with using this on an intex metal frame pool?

No different than cement driveways....I would sweep any pebble debris away first before use. If your driveway is sloped...this thing flies...

I have a vinyl pool and it works great on that. I also don't have the max amount of suction and it still works well for me. If the sides of my pool needed a lot of attention, then I don't know if I would be as happy with it. Only occasionally do I see it climbing the sides.

Yes, I used it on a small in-ground wading pool. We had first painted with an epoxy pool paint, which sealed some tiny cracks in the cement and really looked good, but the surface was slippery. So, we sprayed this over the painted surface and then filled the pool. It resulted in a non-slip surface, safe for kids and older adults.

I don't see why not. Our pool is concrete with a pebble finish. We used one before in a gunite pool.

I wan't happy with this product. Have had a floor steamer for years and I don't think it will work on concrete. Have a great holiday.

I installed it on my existing concrete pool deck. It requires a water connection that may be difficult to install in existing concrete. I use a garden hose when the slide is used.

well----if this helps. I have a above ground pool and have used this for quit some time. it works well and has not ruined anything. I would say yes it is for vinyl liner pools.

We don't have a Pebble Tech pool, but do use the steel brush on a 3M quartz impregnated surface. I have seen no evidence that this brush damages or changes the pool surface in any way. The natural resistance of water to motion makes it unlikely that you will be able to exert a very high force against the pool walls with any brush.

I believe this particular model is reccomended for concrete and gunite pools so I would stay away from this one, as you want something that has rubber brushes. Also, not happy with this aqua bot and would not recommend. Already had it sent to be repaired after only two months and having problems with it again this year. Didn't even have it for a year. Hope this helps.

It looks to me like the black one is made for concrete pools, providing that is the one that you are referring to. I have the blue one that is made for fiberglass, vinyl, and tile. The one I have does an excellent job of cleaning. I especially like that it crawls up the sides of the pool, cleaning that area too.

Attached is a brochure from the manufacturer describing two models - one for concrete and the other for vinyl. No mention of fiberglass but I assume the difference in the two has to do with the flexibility of the pool surface. We love our "little buddy". It works great on our concrete pool

It's fine. I use it on my pebble sheen finish. I also called Pebble technologies (manufacturer) and they told me it was OK, as did a pool guy I know.

I don't know. I didn't buy it to use concrete. I bought it to paint a pattern on my patio, which I did not do and ended up getting rid of the mold.
