    I don't recommend the MX6 pool vac (1/4 of a star) After installing the MX6 pool cleaner it ran for about an hour and stopped. The suction was working and there was no debris in the vacuum. I shook the vac and it started working again...for about 2 hrs and stopped again with only one side of the tread touching the pool floor. I turned the pump off and set it back to the normal run schedule, hoping that it would start working when the pumped turned back on. The next morning the pump was running, the skimmers were working and ... read more

    Not good for curved pool edges/walls Its good vacuum if your pool walls are straight. Unfortunately most pools have some degrees of curves on the corners in the pool. This vacuum does not know how to detach it from the curves, it gets stuck and wont move anywhere once it hits any of the curves. This is a bad design. What's the point to have a vacuum stay at one place and you have to constantly go and move it each time it does that. Returning it back! 

    Business response:

    Hi Adam, Thanks for the review of your Zodiac MX6 Suction Side Pool Cleaner. We'd like to help you with the wall climbing issue if you still have the unit. First, verify proper flow by counting the wheel rotations of the cleaner tracks. Next, ensure the hose float is positioned approximately 9" from the cleaner. For more detailed instructions, refer to the product manual, found here: https://www.zodiacpoolsystems.com:443/en/products/suction/mx6. If you continue to need assistance, please email us your phone number at feedbac... read more

    does a good job on the pool bottom bought to clean the pool bottom; does a good job; does get hung up some on the steps and takes a while to turn itself around and move somewhere else; reliable; I would buy this again. 

    Business response:

    Thanks for sharing your story, Richard! As for your issue with the steps, check three things: 1) Test for proper flow. 2) Ensure correct hose length and shorten if necessary. 3) Verify that the swivel on top of the cleaner rotates freely.

    It was cheap and does a cheap job. Not worth the money This is not a good pool cleaner. Unless you have the other suction ports closed or partially close at the pump, the creeper has a difficult time staying flat on the pool surface. It will roll around the pool in a 45 degree angle sucking water but nothing off the bottom until you push it down to grab hold of the pool surface. If you have a really strong pump it may do better. But I do have the right pump for my pump and just fine with my old Hayward unit. It also tends to... read more
