Nice product overall, but the cord tangles up too easily, and the phone app doesn't provide notifications or useful cleaning details, so I don't get alerted when the robot needs to be emptied, or other complications. The robot may have a high IQ, but the app has a very low IQ. It could provide many more features via the magic of thoughtful software. 

Business response:

Hi Keith, We are sorry to hear you’re having a few issues with your cleaner. We have a few tips to help with cord tangling. 1) Remove the cleaner from the pool and lay the cable across the pool deck in the sun to relieve coiled memory; 2) Allow the cleaner cable to enter the pool at the center of the length of the pool; 3) Only use enough cable to reach the farthest point from the cable entry location. For the app issues, we recommend calling our technical support team so we can help you optimize the function of the app. ... read more

I had an older model Polaris 9550 sport that I replaced with the alpha IQ+ and it’s got a lot more options and seems to be built nicer. I hope this model last longer than the last one.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us, Daniel! We hope you enjoy your clean pool. Happy swimming! Your Polaris Team

I like the ease of installing and retrieving but it barely does the walls and only does flat surfaces. My platform and pool seat cannot be done. The filter spits out the fine dirt and it ends up on the stairs and platforms 

Business response:

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review, Gary. We have a few tips to help with wall climbing and fine debris collection. If a robot product is no longer climbing well or doesn't seem to be ingesting large debris, the main culprit is usually a clogged debris canister. We recommend carefully rinsing the canister after every cycle and periodically using mild soap and a soft brush to dislodge any microscopic debris that may be impeding flow. We also recommend using a fine filter canister to help with the finer dirt a... read more

Robot performs fairly well but misses areas in my lap pool. Business from which I purchased the robot in Escondido was great - provided excellent information and loaned robot for trial. I am very happy with them. The 2 factory-authorized dealers/service centers in Coachella Valley I rate very poorly. Neither loaned a robot despite your website saying that they would. They also did not return calls. They are very poor representatives for Polaris in my opinion and, but for the excellent service provided by the Escondido pool ... read more

Business response:

Thank you for sharing your experience with us, Charles. We are so glad you received excellent service from the pool pro you purchased from. A suggestion that will improve pool coverage is to ensure the cleaner cable is entering the pool at the center of the length of the pool and that only the required amount of cable is allowed into the pool. Essentially, you should only allow enough cable into the pool to cover the furthest point from the cable entry location in the pool. If you’ve already tried this tip and still need... read more

This machine does an incredible job of cleaning our pool. It literally picks up debris that we cannot even see. The only disappointing thing for me would be that for our application we needed a finer debris basket (Which we didn't even realize was available when we purchased the unit), which is pretty costly IMO. We have a caged pool in Florida, so we deal more with silt/sand than with leaves and such. Other than that it does a great job, and we have a free-form pool that doesn't have a straight wall anywhere. No proble... read more

Thank you for your wonderful review and feedback, Mark! We are happy to hear you’re so satisfied and appreciate your comments about including the fine filter canister as an option. If there is anything we can do to help you in the future, please let us know. Happy swimming! Your Polaris Team
