Recommendations for a new pool sweep

[otto73]

I am remodeling and replastering my pool w/ white plaster. Can you recommend the top 2-3 moderately priced sweeps. One person recommended the Zodiac MX6. Anyone have experience with this. I'm hoping to spend less than $350. Where is generally the best place to buy---in store or online? Thanks

Welcome to the forum! :handshake:

Many here on the forum use robots. They are far better at cleaning the pool and also use far less electricity than running the pump to clean the pool floor. They also climb the walls to reduce your brushing needs.

I suggest you read Pool School - ABCs of Pool Water Chemistry and consider reviewing the entire Trouble Free Pool School book.

I like my Pentair Rebel. Works about the same as the Polaris 280 I used to have, but without the booster pump. Thought it's about 5 bills. The Kreepy looks to be the same thing, I'm not sure what is different. You might have to contact Pentair to determine that. It's only $350:

It's very small and light when it comes time to take it out of the pool, when guests are swimming...
