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

Works great for me I have a small (21 x 10) fiberglass inground pool and it works great for me. Before the Polaris I was vacuuming frequently to keep the bottom clear of dirt and debris. I leave the Polaris working in the pool except when we are swimming and it has kept the pool completely clean and clear. It has already earned its value in saved cleaning time and hopefully it will last a lot longer. So far I have had it almost a year. It was by far the cheapest automatic cleaner on the market.

Very Happy - Not the toy Amazon is calling it for the review! This was a replacement for a different type of Polaris Pool Cleaner. "Mortimer" (as we have named him) does a wonderful job. Our pool is a fairly small fiberglass pool and he can indeed get the pool clean in the 3 hours advertised. This cleaner has few moving parts which makes it even better.

Really improves health of pool. I added this to my pool and it has reduced the maintenance requirements of my pool as well as the circulation of the water.

The 165 can stay in the pool 24x7 and really helps cleaning debris, reduces algae since circulation is improved, and it will also help distribute chemicals with the increased circulation. I recommend this for anyone who has struggled with a pool that gets large amounts of leaves/debris, large amounts of sun that can cause ... read more

Great when it works but that's not often. Is great when it works. Bought this in winter 2021 to be ready for spring. Once pool was open it worked great, I mean it really did an unbelievable job cleaning debris out and it looked like this less expensive vacuum had saved us from replacing our much more expensive robot that died last season. Well, about a month after it was in the pool, it decided to only go backwards and tangle itself in its own hoses. Took it apart, troublehooted according to manual and it still only goes in ... read more

Why is this not working right in just over a month I received this on July 17, it’s already wanting to go only backwards. Please tell me how to fix this or replace it.

Disappointed with product This product, when moving along, caught up in the hose and flipped over! This caused the jets to force water out & emptied our pool of several inches of water. Inferior product!!

Piece of junk Dont waste your money. Constant breakdowns. Have totally rebuilt; goes only one way, only goes backward, goes in a circle. You are better off just vacuuming.
