HaywardW3PVS20GST Poolvergnuegen Suction Pool Cleaner for In-Ground Pools up to 20 x 40 ft.(Automatic Pool Vaccum), Gray

A friend's pool guy recommended this cleaner and I have to agree it does a great job. I can't get it to climb the walls but it cleans up all the leaves at the bottom of the pool every night. I have a lot of trees and shrubs that shed constantly and this cleaner rarely gets jammed up - I'm always emptying the leaf catcher, and not unclogging the cleaner itself - that's a great thing! Definitely worth the expense.

The product works as advertised. I am replacing an earlier model of the same cleaner and this works as expected.

works great arrive soon

Just plug and play. There are some adjustments to be made. Over all great little machine.

This vacuum works ok. It does get the whole pool eventually but seems to make too many turns. I wish it would stay straight longer. It also won't climb the walls. I have plenty of suction and have tried every throat size.

UPDATE 8.14.23...So this vacuum has been working well the last several months...a couple of times it stopped due to a small rock or other obstruction, but other than that, it stays at the bottom of the pool now and rolls around like it's supposed to. So that's why I'm changing my rating.(Original post) My pool guy recommeneded this vacuum for my pool. It works pretty well for several minutes but then it starts floating towards the top of the water and then doesn't move. My pool is 8ft deep and it seems this unit just doesn't weigh enough to stay on the floor of the pool or go up and down the sides like it's supposed to. I hope that eventually it will work as it's supposed to. If that happens, I'll change my rating. But so far, it's an expensive disappointment.

Efficient cleaner, does pool floor and walls. On some walls it falls off halfway up depending on the pump speed set. But often it goes straight up to clean the tile line. Once it hits air it falls back down in 6-10 seconds. The air-sucking sound can be a little annoying so I don't run it at night. It seems like the longer I have it the better it gets the walls, like its learning the pool area more with time. I have a variable speed pump. I upgraded this to 5 stars now that I've had it for months. It works even at lower pump speeds like 1700 rpm. At first it focused on deep end. But I "retrained" it by pulling it to shallow end. Once it got the route down it was fine. It has some kind of built-in memory system. So far it picks up leaves and dirt with no problem, without getting clogged. Very pleased so far. It doesn't get steps or in-pool seats but I can live with that. Only needed 7 of the 10 hoses. It never gets stuck. I have an Avg size inground rectangle pool = about 11'x 30' , 5' deep with side suction port in about the middle. Did not use or need supply bag with control valve, etc. Good product so far. Sometimes it gets carried away with the wall cleaning. Recently it cleaned the tile and broke the air surface 3 times in 60 seconds. That's unusual. It makes this air suction sound when it does but it keeps it clean. But I adjust the valve to more skimmer and less vacuum and that solves that. I still have a pool maintenance crew come out weekly but they notice how the pool stays cleaner.

I have had nothing but issues with every vacuum I have put in my pool. A friend suggested a sweep similar to this one. Once the current sweep I had needed repairs, I decided to purchase a new one. After a month of researching new sweeps, I purchased this sweep. After getting it put together correctly, this thing works great. It has picked up leaves and sticks with no issues yet. My pool is cleaner than it has been in years and I do not have to babysit the sweep every night to make sure it’s not stuck thinking about picking up a grain of dirt. The only issue I had was the swivel was not fully assembled. It came with a white ring and a blue ring, but was not identified in the instructions. I watched a few videos to see if I could figure it out and found these rings keep the swivel attached to the housing. If they are not installed, the swivel sucks down agains the turbine and causes a massive vibration. The rings have to be pressed on and do take some good force to get them seated. I am very happy with the sweep so far and it sounds like very low maintenance, longer intervals between having to maintenance the sweep.
