The Pond Guy ClearVac Pond Vacuum Cleaner Powerful Motor Quickly Removes Sludge and Trash Dual Chamber Reservoir Non-Stop Use 4 Replaceable Nozzle Attachments 5 Extension Tubes 8 Feet Discharge Hose

I'm submitting this review after just one use so far but I'm very satisfied with this product. I have a small 300 gallon pond that has been a real pain to clean by hand, emptying the pond and literally getting in on my knees and scooping out the sludge with a bucket by hand. Decided to buy this vacuum in hopes it would work as advertised. I can honestly say it has so much power it could've sucked out my entire pond in minutes. The assortment of nozzles are very handy. The sludge was gone in a couple passes. Was very simple to clean the unit with a garden hose. It is mostly plastic but seems very sturdy and well designed. I did buy some velcro straps to store the hoses/cord, as they always seem to unravel and tangle. It now stores neatly in my shed. I can totally recommend this vacuum as of now, I see no reason why it would give me any issues. Update after 6 months: unit still works great after many cleanings, but I had one issue with loss of suction. Checked hoses, nozzle, kinks and any other suggestions in the trouble shooting instructions. Finally found a small rock wedged in the check valve attachment blocking the flapper open. Works good as new now but I could've saved time if they specified in the instructions to check the flapper/check valve.

Excellent product. So far so good. Not major issues. Pump to return clean water works well just need to be used how is works as is not a continuous flow. Other than that the material is strong and construction is sturdy. The suction is not strong to suction small fisher nearby, but just keep an eye on just in case. If you use the extensions be careful as are heavy to move. Overall excellent product, saves time to clean the pond and not waste too much water if the pond is not too dirty. My pond wasn’t cleaned from several months and maybe I lost 10-15 percent of the water inside the pond. After was less dirty I put the hose inside the pond.

Well, I didn’t realize that the discharge was gravity fed. The vacuum attachment is a snoozer but, algae nozzle works great!! I have a 300 gallon bog which is pure fish waste. Have a 80 foot roll flat hose to pump waste to a suitable place. Had to feed waste into a tub with a pump in it to pump waste to where I needed it!!!!

We bought this to keep the string algae under control in our large fountain. My wife and I used it for the first time the other day, and it worked great. Much easier than draining the entire fountain to scrub it. We also tried using just algicides, which did not keep it clean for very long. This keeps the fountain cleaner for much longer.

Got this and let it sit in the box for over a month. Finally got it out and set up to finish cleaning out pool. It worked great at first, (I was ready to give 5 stars and tell everyone they need one!) but within 24 hours of first use, it started losing suction. It’s not getting clogged that I can tell, so have to take apart all fittings and put back together. That’s worked but HIGHLY inconvenient to have to stop, fix it, and restart constantly. Motor has also started smoking more than once, which is concerning. I attempted to reach out to seller, but since it’s over 30 days, Amazon customer service intervened and was zero help.
