Also he is seeing pebbles come off and into the robot.I only ran it for 4 2.5 hour cycles so far and it did not tangle. The swivel on my cord moves freely, does yours?

Not sure about that...I have a fiberglass pool. This is probably a problem with the installation of the pebbles...the rubber brushes are pretty soft and the agitation doesn't seem too rough from seeing it at the waterline.
Just so you know that as long as the robot has a long enough floating cable you can do as I do which is, I stand the robots control unit at one of the two corners of the pool where the cover closes last and feed in all the cable at the corner prior to closing. Once closed the robot remains working beneath the cover without a hitch.I haven't had a problem with the cord tangling. Been using it almost daily for a week now to get the new pool clean. I also ordered the ultra fine basket which is doing a great job picking up the construction dust and paver sand that mad its way into the pool. I don't leave the robot in the pool since I have an autocoder that I close each night.
Thank you for letting us know about the cord tangling. I am having second thoughts about buying one now.The VRXIQ cord has been getting pretty darn tangled even with the swiveler. I'm not noticing much of a difference from my old 9550 that had NO swiveler.
That's the model I have and the bluetooth function is Crud. Besides that, the robot works very well.Did you see the proteous dx5i amazon has it for 1000.00 has bluetooth.
Is there a difference between the 9650iQ and the VRXiQ? Does the 9650iQ have a swivel that is supposed to keep the cord from tangling?
So it was 1599. Sale-159 add 111 tax. Total 1550. Rebate hopefully, will be 125 paid as a Visa card.Thanks for all the info. I think Leslie's is running a sale mid-June. Hoping they have a good deal on the VRX. My 4 year old P825 has been stopping before completing a full cleaning cycle and I don't want to start putting money in that machine, so will probably upgrade if the P825 stops running altogether. What would you consider a good price for the VRX... $1,500?
