Hey!,
I really like the Barracuda cleaner, but it gets stuck on some things on the bottom of the pool floor. So if i leave it out there an hour, 2-3 times it may happen so its kinda annoying that i have to baby it and watch it vs multi-task and do something else.
Its usually a few small plugs that stick upwards an inch or so (might be the pressure relief plugs?).
My best idea would be to take a bucket and turn it upside-down and put some weights on it so it stays on top of those areas.
Seems a bit ugly solution, so thought I'd ask if any better ideas?
Thanks!,
Ari
