    Didn't work for me..... I have a 12000 gal in ground pool with a vinyl liner. I read the instructions made all of the adjustments according to the instructions, yet it would just spin in circles.

    Business response:

    Dear Michael, We're sorry you're having trouble with the MX6 cleaner getting stuck in your pool. Here are a few troubleshooting tips you can try to fix the issue. - Observe the cleaner for more than five minutes and ensure that each drive track is periodically reversing direction. - Ensure the swivel on top of the cleaner rotates freely. - Count wheel rotations to verify proper flow.

    Not Good at all..gets stuck every time.,, I have a variable speed pump with a salt water pool set up. I get oak tree leaves in my pool here and there, small leaves and it gets stuck and stops working every time. Backs up our pump and makes the pump work harder. We have to stop the system each time and free it up. Quite a expensive item that says it has no problem picking debris up and clearly it does. Not happy with this at all. I will be spending even more money now buying another cleaner with a bag this time. And I am not ... read more

    The suction is good but still stopped and got really slow and ended ... This little vacuum started out ok, but spent more time along the sides of the pool than in the middle or going across. It also got really really slow and it would stop and when we thought it was stuck there would be nothing there. The suction is good but still stopped and got really slow and ended up being a big disappointment and not worth the money spent. It would just stop rolling and moving even when there was nothing stuck in the suction at the bott... read more

    MX6, Nice looking. The Zodia MX6 starts out ok, but within minutes, it goes into a spin cycle. It turns and turns then starts climbing but soon returns to spinning. This happened after I had it past the return date. Otherwise I would have returned it. This product is quite expensive and it should have worked better. I do not recommend this product.

    Hello Oscar, We are sorry to hear that you're having issues with your MX6 cleaner and we'd like to try and help. Please email feedback@zodiac.com with your contact information and a representative will contact you. We look forward to hearing from you.

    Caution: Don't trust the HYPE I'm not one to leave bad reviews, but when something isn't what it stands up to be... it should be pointed out. I bought this contraption a few months ago. Before I had a Hayward in the pool. I bought this because of all the positive reviews and because people wrote that it did an amazing job and I also watched the videos of how it cleans. I can't say this machine cleans. It misses areas in my pool constantly. Why pay for something to vacuum automatically if it isn't going to do the pool correct... read more

    Business response:

    Would reallly like to try this out Just received this Zodiac MX6 yesterday. There isn't a manual - found one online. Can't hook up to my new pool dedicated suction line. Apparently I need a Safety Vac Wall Fitting. Which the manual says is not included with the purchase. And it isn't included. Now I don't know which type of size of Safety Vac Wall Fitting to purchase. Does anyone have any idea where or what type of Safety Vac Wall Fitting I should purchase? Would reallly like to try this out, but am stumped. If I ever get it... read more
