Anybody familiar with Polaris Robots?

I'm thinking of returning my suction side cleaner. I can get a credit to apply towards a robot, but they don't have the Dolphin A30i that I want.

They can get me the Polaris P955, or the P965iq.

Please let me know if you have had any experience with either of these models. I got my suction cleaner at Leslie's, so I'm limited to the cleaners they sell.

Thanks!

I've seen more bad reviews of the Polaris robots than good ones....As an S300i owner (same as A30i), you will not be disappointed by it. I can't comment on the Polaris performance.

I have P945 and couldn't be happier with it. Don't need the fancy app. I have never owned a dolphin so can't comment on those.

Have had no tangles, or any other issues; picks up sand, bugs, worms, the odd leaf....

Just love it!

I was skeptical for the first time...wondering if this would really be much different than my usual pool sweep.
So, I ran my new Polaris F9550 robotic pool cleaner and thought my pool looked pretty good. Then I put this vacuum in and let it do its thing for the recommended time. I love the fact that I can control where the vacuum goes and then have it "lift" at where I am.
Not very good with steps.

What vacuum are you talking about that you like? The Polaris?

Yep, Polaris F9550.
In comparison with other robotic pool cleaners, I think this is the best option in this price range.
Worth the price in my opinion.
