    The good Polaris PCX 868 iQ cleans well. Filter is easy to empty. Handle is sturdy and allows you to pick up out of the pool with no issues. The bad The connection to the control unit that sits in travel cart is fragile vs the competition. So we are concerned it will break if someone pull on it to hard or the cart falls over. Cart is cheap and easily falls over when the PCX isnt laying on its base. Again this put the control unit at risk of damage 

    Business response:

    Your feedback on cleaning and usability is appreciated. Thank you for sharing that along with your concerns about the connection and cart stability. Please reach out to our product support team with your concerns. You can email ProductSupport@fluidra.com or call (800) 822-7933 during operating hours. From your Polaris Team

    Easy to use. Cleaner does not pick up bigger pieces of debris and often leaves debris behind. 

    Business response:

    Hi Jocelyn, Thanks for choosing the Polaris PCX 868 iQ! Your trust and satisfaction are our top priorities. If your cleaner is not cleaning properly, please try these tips: • Empty the filter canister and thoroughly clean it with mild soap and a soft brush. • Untangle the twisted cord and lay it in the sun to reduce coil memory. 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 i... read more

    Overpriced for what it says it does. My 280 works better than this thing. And the one above it isn’t much better. Should have went back with another 280. Oh well live and learn. Won’t be another one here!

    Issues from day one. Firmware update would never complete. Lost connection consistently despite unit being only 18 inches from wifi extender. Customer service was slow to respond and could not have cared less about my issue. I'll be returning it to Leslie's and buy something that isn't a Polaris. Very disappointed. 

    Business response:

    We’re truly sorry to hear about your experience, Jeff. If you’re open to it, we’d really appreciate the opportunity to make things right. Please email us at customerfeedback@fluidra.com and include your phone number so a member of our team can reach out to you directly as soon as possible. Thank you, Your Polaris Team
