About this business

Best in-ground automatic pool cleaner for vinyl or fiberglass surfaces The Polaris 165 operates with the pump and filtration systems normally found on pools with vinyl or fiberglass surfaces, and installs in just minutes. Powered by the pressure of clean water returning to the pool, the Polaris 165 pressure pool cleaner uses a patented jet sweep assembly that blows water against the pool wall to loosen debris in hard-to-reach places even if the pool has an uneven bottom. Its easy-to-remove filter bag captures debris before... read more

Don't waste your money Terrible terrible terrible. Wasted money. Goes in circles and coils up into itself.

Not recommended for inground pools I loved our Polaris Sweep for our above ground pool that caught many leaves in Michigan. The pool was a large oval with one return, so I wanted more circulation. This Vac worked perfectly for that situation, 5 stars. Moved to Florida and have an inground pool, so purchased the Polaris Sweep for inground pools. Results are ok at best. This pool is more bean shaped and the Vac circles around in the shallow end and gets caught up in the steps because the hose wraps up in a spiral and can't spi... read more

This is not the product you want Do not waste your money. I have had a pool for 20 years, always with automatic pool cleaners. This is by far the worst one I have ever owned. It is constantly backing into its wall plug and getting the hose tangled and then tipping over and shooting the water out of the pool. Came home from work yesterday and it had lowered the water level in my pool by about 2 feet.

Low Quality, Did Not Work. I spent the better part of a day trying to get this to work. The hoses are low quality. The filter bag looks like it would last a week at most. Even after contacting the manufacturers help line I could not get this to work properly. Very cheap plastic parts and I can't see even if I got it to work, how it would last. More like a $99 item. I attempted to use once and returned for refund. Save your money and purchase a better unit.

Polarcrap. Pros: - Worked fairly effectively for two months. - Attractive looking. Cons: - Stopped working after two months. It is suppose to change directions but it just gets stuck in one spot and does not back up. The manual says to take it apart and remove any debris that might be clogging it so I opened it up but nothing was clogging it, just stopped working. -Plastic is cheap and a piece broke off. -Hose rubbed itself raw and eventually sprung a leak. -Minor damage to my pool.

OK for One Season Only This pool cleaner worked flawlessly for nearly one season in my in-ground before the hose began to spring leakes. With the hose replaced this season, it worked well for about a week before it started coiling up each time i put it in the pool. After performing all the "trouble shooting" procedures--and it is essential to follow the installation directions precisely--I called the company for tech support. Immediately the agent offered me a replacement of the motor, which I received and installed, only to... read more
