Pool cleaner recommendations

[rp7777]

I have had 2 zodiac mx8 vacs and I like it when it works but I’m tired of either buying parts or just replacing the unit.
I have. 10k gallon pool with a screen enclosure.
Any recommendations on a vac that won’t get stuck in corners and doesn’t require parts replacement so frequently?

I suggest a robot.

The only one I have experience in is mine, the Polaris 9650iQ. So I can't really comment on any others. But I am totally 100% happy with it. 8 seasons no issues and always cleans the pool near spotless. Doesn't get stuck on anything and sometimes even makes it onto my sundeck (I have found it on its back maybe 4-5 times over the years but it's very rare). It has manual control so I can drive it up on the sundeck if I want but usually while it is running I just brush anything on the sundeck into the main pool. I also purchased the optional fine filter which picks up a lot that the non-fine filter misses.

Thems fightin words.

Sadly lately, it's been fighting over who's robot died sooner.

No matter which way you go, consider it a consumable and not the 5 to 10 season tool it once was. If you get 3+ years, then woohoo.

Currently, this one is looking promising

New EVO 614i Robot Pool Cleaner Review

About a month ago I needed a new robot pool cleaner and I contacted Margaret at Marina Pool and Spa. My initial goal was to buy another S200 "style" robot as I have been happy with them so far. Margaret suggested that I might want to look at a new line of robot cleaners that Marina is now...

Such a disgrace that nothing lasts by design.

discouraging to hear. My MX8 is 10 years old and I've only had to replace the treads. Its slow and only does a so-so job though... Would like to get a robot.
