    This is my second Polaris 280 and this one seems to be comparable with the last. Unfortunately, they both have a tendency to get stuck in certain areas of my pool. I tried every adjustment to the first one without any success; I’ll see how this one does. The first pool sweep that I had was a Letro Legend and it was much better.

    Good except it sometimes gets stuck on the acopulco deck.

    I had my original Polaris for 17 years. I finally decided to purchase a new one. I'm glad I did. I hope I'll get 17 years out of this purchase.

    Great service! I upgraded from an old tired 180. What a difference! Sure it picks up leaves but the amount of silt it picked up blew me away. I had to clean the bag 2-3 times a week to keep up.

    Thank you for your wonderful review, Ron! We appreciate you and hope you enjoy your clean pool. Cheers, Your Polaris Team

    Big improvement over my 20 year old 380 polaris sweep. its faster, less likely to get stuck in corners and cleans my pool in 1/2 the time that the old 380 was taking. Easy to install with no adjustments or fine tuning required. 

    Business response:

    Thank you for your detailed and positive review, Robert! We are delighted to hear your 280 cleaner is performing so well. Happy swimming! Your Polaris Team

    I finally had to replace my 17 y/o Polaris 280. It always did well after an occasional tune-up at my local Leslie's Pool Supply store. The saleswoman tried to sell me an updated version, but I insisted on buying another 280. The new one works great and I'm very pleased with it's performance...!

    Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us, Stephanie! It's always a pleasure to hear from a repeat and satisfied customer. Happy swimming! Your Polaris Team
