A replacement for my Hayward Navigator I purchased the Baracuda G3 to replace my Hayward Navigator which I managed to keep alive for 17 years. The Navigator needed new parts almost yearly and I finally got tired of shelling 100 to 200 dollars per year to keep it going.I noticed several reviews of the Baracuda that stated it would run for a while and then stop. I think I've found a solution for this problem....This was the first cleaning of the year with this cleaner. As expected, evil things lurked below the murky waters thi... read more

Its doing a pretty good job Its doing a pretty good job. The vacuum stops a lot with no debris in the tube and I'm not sure why. It can't handle sweetgum balls or other tree pods, they just stop up the tube and she stops and you have to remove the blockage to get it going again. I was frustrated by the fact there is a yellow piece on the bottom of the cuda that is what the disk attaches too. On the side of this yellow piece it does not completely fit around the base of the blue part of the vac and I can't get it on myself be... read more

Cleaning using the old fashioned pole with a vacuum like head is such a pain in the butt I have an outdoor pool that gets oak tree leave, pine needles, and other assorted debris.I also take care of my mothers pool which has has the same. Cleaning using the old fashioned pole with a vacuum like head is such a pain in the butt. These automatic pool cleaners are such time savers. However, they are not all built equal. I’ve tried several models including a knock off that resembled the Barracuda and another that used small wheel ... read more

Much better than Hayward Navigator XL After a fair amount of research I bought the Baracuda G3 to replace my old Hayward Navigator XL. This was actually my second Navigator and between the two of them they did a reasonably good job for the past eight or so years. I decided to try something else, however, because the Hayward units required frequent repair and they were never much good at sweeping the sides of my pool.I'm very happy to report that the G3 performs MUCH better -- at least with my rectangular-shaped pool. I tried... read more

Great product, but diaphrams are an issue. I LOVE this pool cleaner!!! I bought it due to the excellent reviews that I read, and the minimal parts that would need replacing in the future. My pool maintenance has been significantly reduced. All I have to brush now are the stairs and the swim up deck occasionally. The Baracuda climbs the walls and keeps my 12,000 gallon pool sparkling!! I'm saving on chemicals as well. One thing I really love is that it still skims while vacuuming the pool bottom. Definite must have!!!Edit 7/2... read more

it cleaned great. Problem is I bought this to replace my Zodiac MX8 which I kept dumping money into because everything on that cleaner only lasts 6 months to a year. When the MX8 was running, it cleaned great. Problem is, it's like owning an old high performance car, always needing maintenance.The G3 has ONE part that is going to need regular maintenance, the diaphragm. How does it compare to the MX8? Well, the MX8 cleans better. period. Here in Arizona we get dust storms and our pools pay the price. After the last heavy dus... read more

Works excellent stairs, wall sides and flooring The farthest end of my pool is 25 ft, so I use 8 segment + 2, but I found it works best at 8+1 segment. From the side port I connect 1 hose segment then the leaf catcher. Then between the 2nd and third segment I put a connector ($8.0) with swivel. This swivel solve most of the problen with the hose looping and get stucked. The only drawback is it sucks some air but I think its negligible. Still I put a weight near that segment to solved that problem. My suction is at 3 adjusted... read more

IT WORKS & I DON"T HAVE TO! I used this item for the first time today. All I had to do was set it up, put it into the pool, connect it, and watch it work. After that, the hardest task I had to do was enjoy my beverage! I am amazed at how thoroughly it vacuums the pool. The startup guide was simple(perhaps too much so) ... but by paying close attention to the diagrams and taking your time, it was a piece of cake to get it going.UPDATE: it’s about four years later and this item is still working well! Some lessons learned: 1. I... read more

Good value so far and works well in my pool so far As for effectiveness of the G3 in my pool, that will take more time than the 2 weeks it's been in use. We have a large 30,000 to 38,000 gallon 8.5 ft deep diving pool. While somewhat rounded corners, the shape of the pool is a very squared off "L" shape. with the shallow end on the smaller part of the "L". It's running at night, and I have seen it in the shallow end; it appears to spend most of it's time in the 5ft to 8.5ft areas. I know it's not a depth thing as it works pe... read more
