Our most popular automatic pool cleaner The Polaris Vac-Sweep 280 pressure-side pool cleaner works in all in-ground pools and requires a booster pump. It is powered by double jets, providing greater vacuum power and faster cleaning (3 hours or less). The Polaris 280 easily connects to a dedicated pressure line and sweeps, scrubs, and vacuums all surfaces of the pool. The pressure cleaner is equipped with a single chamber filter bag where it captures large debris such as leaves, acorns, pebbles, and other small to large debri... read more
Not a bad cleaner. Parts are readily available and not difficult to replace. Eventually the Pool chemicals and texture of the pool will wear it out. This is my second one and I keep the old one for parts. The issue is it’s overprices for what it is. It’s still cheaper than comparable models. I don’t understand why pool cleaners and parts are so expensive. I guess it reminds you owning a pool is a luxury, not a necessity.

When our ancient 280 finally gave up the ghost, we didn't hesitate to purchase a new one. The debris bag is larger, which is a nice feature. The hose length is perfect for our 22 x 44 foot, vinyl lined pool. It was quick and easy to assemble. Once attached to the wall port, we turned on the booster pump and it took off! Within an hour the pool bottom was spotless. This was the first cleaning after opening so there was a lot of gunk. We are impressed with its efficiency.

Great product and does a great job clean pool.
The Polaris 280 works good and cleans the bottom of the pool to its best ability but it doesn't do the sides of the pool nor does it do my sunning shelf. I have tried all kinds of different settings to get it to climb the walls or to get on my sunning shelf and it will not do it. the steps it will not do either but as far as cleaning the pool, it does a good job. I just sweep steps and the shelf off before the equipment cuts the polaris on.

It was a great purchase.
The Polaris 280 is a great cleaner that keeps my pool very clean.
Great product and knowledgeable easy to reach customer service if & when needed.This is my second Polaris. The first was purchased in 1983 when the pool was originally installed and lasted for almost 35 years. Over that time, the internal parts (belts & gears) were only replaced once as were the wheels and the tail. Needless to say, i had no reason to consider any other brand when the time came.
