I'm looking for some feedback on the Hayward Tiger Shark - i.e. experience using it, any problems, longevity, is it all that they are cracked up to be.

It cleans all the seating areas and all but the top step (it would have to come to far out of the water for that one). Keeps my pool clean and does a good job on the water line.
Maintenance on it has been minor. Replaced treads, roller covers and filters last year.

Try starting in different location and flip the handles around. Changing handle position makes it change the turning direction. The filters, place one hand on the little hump in the middle of the cartridge, and wiggle and pull straight up on the filter. I’ve found that fine grit can get in the channel the filters slide in and make them a little hard to pull up.
