Not as expected So where do I Start... unfortunately, the main unit is just junk. I've tried my best to make it work smoothly but it just doesn't.First off, the main head unit has these round bumpers that are held in by plastic philips head screws that justkeep falling out. I've screwed them back in more times than I can count. It's just not worth my time anymore. Simply put, theyre all out now. Secondly, the unnit doesn't move at all when my pump is in 1hp mode and I need to switch it over to 1.5 hp which is the vacuum sett... read more
Pitiful packaging ... loose screws - crushed parts This is our THIRD Polaris 65. We have been using this exact product for the past 21 seasons and it works great, but after time, the hoses, flexing so much, crack, etc. It's usually more cost effective to just buy a brand new one than to replace parts. HOWEVER, this one came damaged right out of the box. The yoke that holds the catch basket was packaged under other items and is mashed so badly, it will not straighten back out (photo coming). We put it in the water anyway, hop... read more
Used item When I opened the damaged box I noticed that while the hoses were new, the Polaris itself had multiple scratches and buff marks. Because my old one had not been working for awhile I ignored it. I set it up and it ran itself into a tight circle just like the old one. I purchase these from reputable retailers (normally) and they only last about 2 years, as I run them 24/7 365 days a year. When the item works, they are priceless. When they don’t, they are worthless. There are 4 jets and a metal ball inside that makes ... read more
Waste of money Like all the others, the unit would back up and get entangled within itself. One of the jets would never work properly. The seller would not exchange for the price that I paid for it. After I purchased the cleaner and it would not work, the price on Amazon had gone up. I was told I had to return the cleaner and get a refund and then repurchase the same product at the higher price. Really? What a total joke!
Polaris 65 Doesn't Work The media could not be loaded. First, the hose arrived blowing out air from where it connects to the unit. Sent a video, as requested, and was sent a replacement only to find that not all the jets work which means this thing only goes in circles and becomes one big tangled mess very quickly. Once, i even looked out my window and it was upside down shooting water out of the pool at a high rate of speed. Good thing i was home to stop it and turn it back over. When we lifted it out of the water and watch... read more
Worked for a day, manufacturer won't help despite warranty Works great when it works, however: - There are many pages online of people who have the same issue with these, specifically that it eventually stops moving forward/backward at random which is what is required for it to perform correctly. There is a randomizer ball inside a tube that is supposed to block water flow at random from one of four tubes, this causes the device to move at random so that it will not become tangled. When that mechanism fails, this device will... read more
Received an apparently used unit with part missing The unit is a Five rating but I downgraded it because of receiving an apparently used unit. The box contained a part that I didn't recognize. After installing unit and not being able to get it to work properly I looked up information and thanks to Youtube found videos. Discovered that the extra part in the box was an internal part for the unit and was the reason it didn't work properly. I installed the part and re-tested and it works great. I am retuning the unit for a new o... read more
Very much regretting this purchase Delivered quickly. It simply doesn't function as designed or advertised. It's supposed to wander across the surface randomly while the sweeper blows trash from the bottom into a receptacle bag. However, all it wants to do is travel in a backward circle. When the unit gets a bit of water in it (um, it's in a pool, folks), it rears up, flips over and sprays jets of water out of the pool. Threw out my packaging, like a fool, and searched online everywhere for advice or a service number. Nothin... read more
It’s supposed to work so I don’t have to For the money, I guess you get what you pay for. It wants to work, and I want it to work, but it normally fails. When it first comes on it does great. Then it gets near the outlet and coils itself up and spends the rest of the day there. I’m hoping that it is due to hose memory, and it’ll get better once we get into summer and it warms up enough to straighten it out, but I’m not very optimistic. I have tried adding a photo of it coiled up, but the add photo button is no longer showing... read more
