It was the Classic Aquabot. The original one. If I had bought the T2 or T4, I know I would of been much better off. Live and learn I guess.
The problem was that it didnt clean the pool in areas and not small areas, big ones, got hung up on the cord allot, Main Drain issues which I know there is a fix to that, Got stuck on the hooks for the Rope across the shallow/deep end Ect.
So you can about imagine my attitude on this since I heard so many good things online about it. I would definitely think about buying the turbo brands, but being a perfectionist, I just decided to say to He!! with it, and just do it myself. I need the exercise anyway, and when I do it, its pretty darn relaxing.
Since we live in ND, the pool is open 5 months a year so if I was downsouth, then I too would have one running all the time as well. Just was not a practicle thing for me is all considering the time vs cost issue. For me, time is money. That is the whold reason I bought it, but oh well.
I did have it looked at by the PB and they said nothing was wrong and the model I had was OLD. I looked in the manual and it even says that it could take that long to clean it. Had I done the proper research first, I would have never bought this model.
Tough lesson to learn :grrrr:
