It's your choice. Most auto vacs do a good job of getting out most of the debris from the pool. It becomes a question of "is having the auto vac save you 1/2 hr/ week vacuuming worth the cost of it?" However, even with the best auto vac - there will be times you have to vacuum manually
A lot of folks find it a nice break and even relaxing to vacuum the pool manually, but if you don't have the time or find it to be a PITA and can afford it, get the auto vac 8)

Having done construction and service for 4 pool companies in 4 states starting in 1988, what I know about pools could fill a couple of books - what I don't know could fill a couple of libraries :-D
POOL SCHOOL, TF Testkits, Jason's Pool Calculator, CYA vs. cl chart, (Just a few DARNED handy links!)

Yep, and I'm one of them, it's the only time I can enjoy the pool by myselfA lot of folks find it a nice break and even relaxing to vacuum the pool manually, but if you don't have the time or find it to be a PITA and can afford it, get the auto vac
Plus i don't even know if my pump would be able to handle the auto vac!!!

If you do decide on a robotic think about a remote control. I have a Dolphin w/o a remote, and wish I had one.
