If you have wrinkles in the bottom or sides, don’t buy this unit! I had this unit for 5 weeks. It does clean the bottom of the pool,but I have a few wrinkles in the bottom and this unit has cut the liner in 5 spots. Not happy with this product. I have reduce the pressure and then it will not clean good. 

Business response:

Dear Tim, We're so sorry you are disappointed with the performance of the Turbo Turtle cleaner in your pool. Unfortunately, certain vinyl liner patterns can be susceptible to rapid surface wear or pattern removal caused by objects coming into contact with the vinyl surface. We include a warning about this in the Turbo Turtle product manual. Please see page 2 of the manual here: https://www.polarispool.com/~/media/zodiac/global/downloads/tl/tl-1021.pdf We're so sorry you happened to miss this notice when you purchased the cle... read more

Works great when its untangled Works great when its untangled. But quickly winds itself up into a knot and the turtle can't go anywhere. I clean the pool quicker by hand than trying to fight with this thing. 

Business response:

Hello Brittany, Thank you for your review. We suggest laying the float hose out straight in direct sunlight to remove the coils. If you continue to experience issues our technical support department is also available to help, and can be reached at (800) 822-7933. Best Regards, Zodiac Pool Systems Manufacturer of Jandy, Polaris, and Zodiac product

This polaris was great for the first thirty days This polaris was great for the first thirty days, Then it began to just go in a circle and the hoses kept getting twisted up. We tried several times to figure out what was wrong but still keeps doing this. Would like to return it for a different one because we paid so much for it. I had one several years ago that worked great for about 7 years.

Only worked well 2 weeks! Worked great the first two weeks but stopped sweeping half of the pool after. Constantly have to readjust and it still won't sweep entire pool like it did in the beginning. Wish I had sent it back!

Pressure reducing valve sucks! The pressure reducing valve is stuck and not moving. The hook up part of the hose at the end is loose. The manual does not provide detailed information on the installation or operation, so I had to find other Youtube video.

Too Much Trouble The turtle is cute, but it was shipped without the filter bag. When I called Amazon, all they could do was offer a credit. I had to go out and locate the bag myself. Once we thought we had all the parts, the "Universal Fitting" to connect the hose to the pump was not so universal. After going to Home Depot I found out that traditional plumbing fittings are not standard sizes for pool equipment. I had to rig the hose up to the filter system to get the vacuum to work. After we got it running the product seemed... read more
