Bad points
Poor for sand. Very poor for pebbles.
Very poor performance on pebbles. Poor performance on sand. Borderline performance on twigs. Frequently gets stuck around the steps. Occasionally gets blocked with leaves or twigs. Does not do the top of steps/shelves. Coverage is concentrated around the edges of the pool.
Only OK for sand. We inadvertently broke the connector for the charging cap so that it was no longer captive. Can end up stuck at one end of the pool.
Very poor for twigs. Only OK for pebbles. We experienced 6 blockages caused by twigs during the 2.5 hour test. Didn't clean the walls or steps. Spent a lot of time trying to climb the walls.
Borderline for pebbles. Very poor for sand. Didn't clean the walls or steps. Pushed some leaves into the curve between wall and floor, where it can't be vacuumed.
Only OK for pebbles and sand.
Occasionally gets blocked with leaves or twigs. Occasionally gets stucks on steps or other protuberances. Does not do the top of steps/shelves.
When the receptacle is full, sand drops out around the base of the walls where it is difficult for the cleaner to re-vacuum.
Very poor performance for all types of debris if sand (or similar) is present in the pool - only managed just under 3 hours with almost constant obstructions and stoppages. We stopped the test just shy of 3 hours, as a user is unlikely to continue - it's easier to just manually vacuum the pool. We experienced 34 blockages and 13 stoppages within this timeframe with sand in the pool. There was evidence of abrasive damage to the turbine mechanism caused by sand. Completed our 6 hr test with no sand present in the pool - with 12 blockages (mostly due to twigs), and 1 stoppage. Does not do the top of steps/shelves.
Only OK for twigs and pebbles. We experienced 10 blockages caused by twigs or leaves during the 2.5 hour test. Didn't clean the walls or steps. It is awkard to remove crushed leaves from the internal turbine blades.
We experienced 1 stoppage in 6 hours of use - it also climbed to waterline and sucked in too much air requiring resetting the system. We experienced 4 blockages - mostly due to twigs, in 6 hours of use. Didn't clean shelf/steps.
Very poor for twigs. Can get stuck in corners. We experienced 5 stoppages in 6 hrs of cleaning. It can up-end itself needing manual assistance to turn over. Can trap skirt underneath itself.
Drops sand and pebbles where floor meets wall as it climbs walls. OK for twigs. Borderline for pebbles and sand pickup. Often lifts front off the floor - almost vertical. Favours shallow end.
Borderline for pebbles. Poor for sand. Only OK for twigs. Did not clean walls or steps. Pushed some material into the curve between wall and floor, where it can't be vacuumed.
Borderline performance on pebbles. Poor performance on sand.
Heavy, but it comes with a caddy.
Can get stuck in corners. Occasionally stops for no reason. Does not do the top of steps/shelves. The cleaner can only be attached to the hose when suction is being applied.
Drops sand and pebbles where floor meets wall as it climbs walls. OK for twigs. Borderline for pebbles and sand pickup. Often lifts front off the floor -almost vertical. Favours shallow end.
After 5 hours of cleaning the cleaner began stopping for no apparent reason, there was evidence abrasive damage to the mechanism caused by sand. Borderline performance on sand. Poor performance on twigs. Very poor performance on pebbles. Frequently gets blocked with debris.
Only OK for pebbles and twigs. We experienced 5 stoppages in 6 hours of use - in the curve of the bottom step - optional step deflector accessory may help alleviate this problem. We experienced 4 blockages in 6 hours of use. Favours deep end. Noticeable noise.
Very poor performance on pebbles. Can't clean the floor of the pool that is immediately adjacent to the wall. The lid to the receptacle is a bit hard to open.
Borderline for twigs. Didn't clean shelf/steps.
When the cleaner is put in one end of the pool it does not clean the far end. You need to reposition the cleaner to ensure full coverage. Occasionally gets blocked with leaves or twigs.
Zero pebble pickup. OK performance on sand. Borderline performance on twigs. We experienced frequent stoppages in the curve of the bottom step. Didn't clean shelf/steps. Coverage is concentrated around the edges of the pool.
