I do love the Alpha IQ and would give it 5 stars except that the cord does tangle. I thought the swivel would prevent tangling but it does not. Even with the tangled cord, the cleaner works incredibly well. I don't have a pool cover so rely on the Alpha IQ daily. It is incredibly adept at navigating my pool and righting itself when it occasionally gets thrust backwards and upside-down from a return. It has outstanding cleaning ability and capacity. I would definitely recommend buying. I do ensure the cord is completely unt... read more

Hi Steven, We're happy to hear that you are enjoying your cleaner! Here are some suggestions to improve the cord tangling issue: 1) Remove the cleaner from the pool and lay the cable across the pool deck 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 4) Gently toss the necessary cable across the pool water for even distribution instead of dropping the cable in a lump in one sp... read more

For floor cleaning and most walls it’s great. It’s been 2 months and it still has not learned the layout of our pool. It will not climb the one stair to the tanning ledge to clean I have to brush it down myself. 

Business response:

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review, Randy. We're sorry your cleaner isn't taking care of the stairs or the tanning ledge. Robotic cleaners have a hard time with stairs and benches, as they can’t tell if it’s the top of the pool. Regular pool maintenance requires consistent brushing of the steps, benches, etc. Once the debris is dislodged from those areas, the cleaner can take care of it at the bottom or sides of the pool. Happy swimming! Your Polaris Team

My Polaris Alpha is my second one. I believe it is better than other brands, judging by reviews of other products. It’s not perfect however: • My first one lasted 4 years. At $1600 each, that’s $400/year - a bit steep. • it doesn’t clean my steps • it says it’s full when only a handful of debris is in the canister • neither the old nor the new one will connect to my wifi, so remote features are not available. None of these issues are deal breakers, however, and I bought a second one. 

Business response:

We appreciate your feedback, Carl. We have a few tips to help with some of your issues. We recommend regular brushing of the steps, and once the debris is dislodged, the cleaner can take care of it at the bottom or sides of the pool. For the canister issue, we recommend a thorough cleaning of the canister using a mild soap and a small brush or sponge to eliminate build-up. Make sure to rinse the canister with water from a hose. We're sorry for your poor experience with connectivity in the app. Please contact us at (80... read more
