    We purchased our S200 model about 2 months ago, it has a swivel on the power cord. It works fair to well most of the time. Sometimes I do have to straighten it out when I extract Bob from the pool , easy enough to do as you pull him out gently. Our pool is HUGE 20 x 50 and it takes 2 runs to get...

    Bob was up early this morning cleaning the sunning shelf. Kyra dropped her bone in the water next to Bob in hopes that he would play with her...........Just throw it a little.......Please! Bob has a stellar work ethic, no time for play dog. Ron

    Our platform is about 16" deep and "Bob" a S200 model was all over it today, did a great job too. The first day it wouldn't climb up on the platform, but today it's a different "Bob". Kinda funny sometimes he does a Wheelie across the entire ledge. I want to call out to him when he's heading...

    Our S200 showed up Yesterday, we've been anxiously awaiting it's arrival. Like a new member of the family............ We originally wanted to name him Sven, but he looks like a Bob. We're waiting for the chlorine level to drop after SLAMing the pool to clear it after our weeks vacation with a...

    Ctrav, Thank you for reminding me to update my Sig. We just finished moving this week and I had not updated to our current pool. Had to hire an attorney to "insist" previous owners moved out. Jeesh...... Moving on, Our new pool is 20 x 50 x9' with a large sunning shelf. Once I remove the...

    Now that I'm officially a member of the "club", I have another question My pool is 37K gallons , it had a 3 wheeled return side (return not a separate pump) hose driven non-functional cleaner. It looked like a Pace Car at the track going 'round 'n 'round in circles(the cleaner) died a...

    Finally, a club that will accept me as a member! Thanks All, this is exactly why I asked the questions I asked. Intentional confusion which make it all clear as mud. With all the great reviews and the price from Marina Pool in Co, plus the $50 rebate from Maytronics I pulled the proverbial...

    The wife unit has declared that we need to purchase a robot. I like the design of units in this thread. Price is important, but not as important as quality. I don't need fancy, just dependable. Does anyone know the differences between the S200 and the Nautilus CC Plus? I believe both qualify...

    In floor cleaning? Worth the money?

    My 2 Cents worth. We have a pebble tec in ground pool 6.5 deep at the deepest. Infloor cleaner does a FAIR job, but it needs to run most of the day to clean leaves from a nearby oak tree. I would not build one into a new pool. I've never had a problem with any jets but a robot would scrub the...

    Advice on crack repair / spa spillover

    Thank you, I know I should be more patient. I have been in the past, I'd sure like to know how to repair (and with what product) Pebble-Tec. Most of the other links on the Interwebs are either ads for someone else to do the work, or translated via google into a Quazi* English language that I...
