We named ours Oscar. He does get grouchy every once in awhile and decides to poke his head above water which usually means he will spray you too from the trailing hose.

Sorry  There were many great entries for two of the three categories. It was very difficult to pick who would be a finalist.

I know I missed the deadline but one of my customers has the Blue Diamond pool cleaner and I like to call it "Blue Diamond Phillips" a pun on the actor Lou Diamond Phillips

I know I missed the deadline, but since I take care of everything with the pool, I guess I am the best pool cleaner I know. And even when the Mrs and the dependents are in the pool enjoying themselves...I can hear the wife shout...OH POOOOOOLLLLLLLL BOOOYYYYY!...Can you bring me a drink...Or can you put some lotion on my shoulders, or can you tow me back to the sunny side of the pool!  Mom Raft my butt...one of these days she's gonna find a slow leak in that thing...  It's more like Cabana Boy than Pool boy...No one appreciates the clean sparkly pool I provide...At least I have you guys!!! I know it matters here that my pool is sparkly clean and can be used every day... Poolmom...no telling!!!

Durn...missed the deadline for entering my little pool cleaner in the contest. My 9 yr old named it and dressed it up. I thought the deadline was the end of April! Anyway, will you have another cleaner contest or take a late entry? My fault for missing it, but he'll be so disappointed that he can't enter contest.

There are plenty of other contests coming up, but pool claners won't reoccur before next year.
