QUALITY I live in the Phoenix area let me start with that. I was using the pop ups for cleaning debris off the pool floor for the past 2 years. I decided before the summer starts I want to do something that would clean the pool a little better. I did tons of research on at least a dozen different suction cleaners like this. This zodiac barracuda (I call it my little tank) is AMAZING. Extremely easy to set up with colored pictures within the directions, the packaging was great, along with an overall quality product. The track... read more

LOVE IT ESPECIALLY COMPARED TO THE KREEPY KRAWLY We have had at least 2 Kreepy Krawlies in the past which did a decent job of keeping the pool clean. However, they regularly got stuck on our pool steps. Nothing we tried, including positioning a bucket with a rock in it, in an attempt to keep them away from our steps worked. Since the pool is gunite, the Kreepy Krawly would wear where it rubbed against the pool. And, of course, we were constantly having to intervene to keep it moving.Friends bought a house with a pool and wer... read more

Can be used on ABOVE ground swimming pools! We have an above ground swimming pool and as I went to use our normal manual vacuum I realized it broke so I needed a new one asap. I couldn't find a automatic pool vacuum that was fairly inexpensive and one that could also be used for above ground swimming pools. I came across the MX6 and took a chance buying it and so far I'm so happy that I did! It's pretty easy to hook up and starts working immediately as it hits the ground. I've bought cheaper automatic vacuums in the past tha... read more

Fun to watch "him" work (and me to sit) The "common area" trees have grown tall and are dropping tons of leaves and seeds into my pool. The neighborhood association won't cut them back so I needed another solution to spending a couple hours each day working on the pool.I ordered this and when it arrived I dropped it into a somewhat dirty pool. I was disappointed when it promptly rolled into a large pile of debris and stopped dead. A quick inspection found that it had pulled in a palm frond that had jammed the impeller. A qui... read more

So far, so good (updated 3 years) 4 stars so far. Replaced a Polaris ATV that went after 6 years. Thought about buying the rebuild kit, but at the same price, I figured to give it a try. Since I'm familiar with suction side cleaners, setting up was a snap. Got it running within 10 minutes and within 1 day, my pool was clean. Seems to not get stuck because it spins around. I like that. It's wider than the Polaris so it has no problem on the drains. It will climb the walls if you set the suction high enough.My only complaint i... read more

Works great but doesn't last Waited a week to post a review because I wanted to see how this thing would run. My first impression was WOW. This thing is great. After a few days its shown some weaknesses, but they are fairly minor. For starters, this is WAY better than the Hayward ultra vac. I have owned 3 of those and all I can say, is avoid them like the plague. My most recent machine was a Polaris ATV F7. It lasted 4 1/2 years with NO issues. Loved it. So of course they don't make it anymore. Bad reviews on the model that ... read more

Beware of this vacuum's propensity to get stuck This pool vacuum continually became stuck on the two sets of steps in my pool. I called Zodiac customer support and performed all of the recommended adjustments...there was no change in the way the pool vacuum worked. I had to free the vacuum 4 to six times a day. I did not buy this vacuum to constantly free the vacuum from getting stuck.

Do not buy Do not buy. I purchased this and it barely moved even with my pump solely dedicated to it. I took it to pinch a penny and spent $45 getting a "damaged part" replaced. It worked for one pump cycle and seized up again the next day.It is now literally garbage. Anyone thinking about buying one can have mine for free!
