    Great Sweep Was torn between paying more for the 380, or just going with what I had before. Glad I stayed with the 280 - my old one finally died. It was really just plug-and-play hook up. The new hose that comes with this newer one is much more pliable and actually roams around my entire pool now.

    Great sweep We replaced our old Polaris 180 sweep which lasted, with a few rebuilds, for over 30 years. This sweep is much better. The vacuum effect is stronger. Removing and installing the bag is easier. The bag has a zipper which make it easy to empty. Also the pressure line filter in the flex hose, rather than in the wall fittings as in the past, which makes it easier to see when it needs cleaning. It also comes with a back up device. All in all, it is a great sweep and we are glad we upgraded. Sorry we didn't buy it soon... read more
