    The jury is still deliberating. I just got the MX6 yesterday and went through the assembly and setup procedure. The first step says to turn off the main drain but does not mention it again. Do I leave it off? Do I turn it back on? The next step is to assemble the hose, connect enough to reach the furthest point plus one section. Check. Next is to time the number of rotations of the propeller (10 rotations in 20 seconds). What do you do when the propeller stalls at that suction rate? It stops driving the cleaner tracks and I ... read more

    Disappointed After trying for the second time I’m definitely disappointed. So I tried adjusting the suction and it started working for a moment but then it suddenly stopped I had to manually move it so that it will move the problem was that it stopped every time. Next after viewing some help videos I tried it again and then it work for about 10 minutes stopped working on got wrapped up in its own line. Definitely not gonna buy again spent weekends trying to solve the problem but the problem was not me it was the product. 

    Business response:

    Hi Francisco, Thanks for your feedback. Sorry about the slow performance of your Zodiac MX6 Suction Side Pool Cleaner. Here are some suggestions: 1) Ensure the main drain is closed. 2) Check the wheel speed to verify proper flow. 3) Check for track wear. 4) Backwash the pool filter and empty the pump basket. 5) Check for jammed debris in the cleaner engine. 6) Check for air in the system. 7) Ensure the flow regulator valve moves freely. For more details on these adjustments, please refer to the FAQ section and the product ma... read more

    Poor quality hose. I like the fact it doesn't get hung up on stairs like creepy crawly did, but I'm on second season with it and the hose is falling apart and each piece to replace is $20 for each piece and roughly 3 foot sections.

    Constantly stuck This is the "dumbest" pool vacuum there is. It doesn't change direction or reverse when it gets stuck. It just sits there spinning it's treads. I even replace the directional device; it still works like crap. Save your money. Every day I have to go out and free it from the stairs or another spot where there is a rounded side area of the pool. It will get to one of those places and sit there for hours unless I go out and free it 4-5 time a day. I don't have time to babysit this piece of crap.

    Doest not operate properly DON’T WASTE YOUR MONEY AND TIME I have a two speed pump and salt water chlorinator, in order for the chlorinator to operate properly I need to run my pump at slow speed. When running the MX6 on slow speed (for reasons described above) the unit does not operate efficiently, does not climb walls, does not pick up leaves, therefore; DOES NOT PERFORM AS EXPECTED. When running my pump at high speed MX6 does climb walls, then It gets stuck on-top of stairs, have to manually move it until it gets stuck ag... read more

    Works for clean pools...should be called a pool maintainer. As with some of the other reviews, its great if your pool is already has no debris. Really wanted this thing to work, but tried to 3 days to get it to run for more than 30 minuted before having to pull it up and remove a leaf/twig. Had to issues with my previous cleaner with the same debris. Was trying to save a buck. FAIL.

    Always gets stuck From early on, it would all of sudden stop moving in the pool. Even a small leaf would prevent the rotor from moving even under tremendous suction. Countless times I cleaned and maintained the cleaner only for it not to work properly. I should have given up on this pool cleaner a long time ago. I would never buy this product again.

    Do not purchase from here horrible expierence Bought the Zodiac in February 2018, I have a smaller pool 12,000 gallons so the house was more than length I needed. However every 2 months one of the hoses would crack and or split... this happen continuous. Now currently I only have 1 hose attached which cant clean anymore...

Issue it also caused was the constant issue caused my motor to overhead and burn out due to the random hose cracking and getting air...
