Love Love Love our "Alf" yes we named it. So glad i was able to talk the husband into getting one this year, he finally was too after using him twice!!! Saved on time and the pool hasn't been cleaner!

It is okay because it does not clean the sides and ledges of the pool. It does an excellent job on the bottom. 

Business response:

Hi Frank, We appreciate you taking the time to leave a review. We’re sorry your ALPHA iQ isn’t cleaning the walls and ledges. If a robotic cleaner isn’t climbing well, the main culprit is usually a clogged debris canister. Carefully rinse the canister after each cycle and periodically use mild soap and a soft brush to dislodge any microscopic debris that may be impeding flow. If you’ve already tried this, and are still having issues, please contact our technical support team at (800) 822-7933 so they can help troubleshoo... read more

Besides doing a very good job of cleaning the pool, it is the only unit that I found that can successfully go over the main drain of a pool without getting stuck. Highly recommend this unit. 

Business response:

Thank you for choosing Polaris, Peter! We appreciate your review and glowing recommendation. Wishing you a happy swim season! Your Polaris Team

I went to the pool store thinking I was going to get parts to repair the creepy crawly that we had. Then I was told it really was so old that it wouldn’t be worth it to attempt to fix it. I decided to do what my husband would have done - bought the nicest pool cleaner they had. Let me tell you how amazing this thing is. For one, it saves your filter. All that junk isn’t being forced through the sand, so it is only having to deal with what happens to go through from floating in. It is extremely easy to get out of the pool to ... read more

I was a little hesitant to make the switch from a suction side cleaner to robotic, however after using the Polaris Alpha iQ, my pool has never been cleaner. The robot easily goes up the walls to the waterline, does a fairly good job cleaning the steps and the app is intuitive and easy to use. I do have one small nit to pick however. After cleaning the filter screens, the units top is rather difficult to close and makes a loud “snap” noise, I’m afraid it’s going to break. But, overall I really like the unit and would certai... read more

Great machine. Our pool is unscreened and has a real leaf problem during spring and fall. The Alpha iQ has worked flawlessly in fixing this problem. Wish we would have had it years ago. 

Business response:

Thank you for choosing the Polaris ALPHA iQ, Elaine! We appreciate your positive review and love hearing that your cleaner is performing flawlessly. Wishing you a perfect pool season. Cheers, Your Polaris Team

Love the Alpha iQ! Handles my custom designed pool and picks up the finest of debris. Only nit; the plastic color has not held up to the chlorine and/or salt. 

Business response:

Thank you for your review, Edward! We are happy to hear your ALPHA iQ is performing so well in your custom-designed pool. We’re sorry to hear your cleaner's color has not held up. Prolonged exposure to chemicals and other elements (i.e. UV light) can lead to a cleaner fading over time. We’re glad the color isn’t affecting the cleaner’s performance, but understand that it’s frustrating to have a cleaner that doesn’t look as great as the day you purchased it. If there’s anything we can do to improve your experience, pleas... read more

this is an awesome product. 2 things though 1.I don't care too much for the stiffness/ hard to close the lid back up is once i have emptied out the basket. I almost feel its going to break each time i do it. 2. if the debris stays in the basked a few days, the basket get like hard particles stuck to it in the mesh part. even when i wash with a brush, the granules stuck to it don't come off. would like to know what other folks do to clean this. 

Business response:

Thank you for your positive review, Matt! We appreciate you sharing your experience and hope we can help with the hard particles sticking to the filter. We recommend cleaning the canister with warm soapy water and a fine brush. Hopefully this helps, but if you need more assistance please don’t hesitate to contact us. We hope you have a wonderful pool season! All the best, Your Polaris Team
