I haven't invested in an automatic pool cleaner yet. I've read many positive reviews about robot cleaners -- not so much on suction cleaners.
My pool is 10k gallons and sits inside a screened-in enclosure, so I don't get any large debris. What I don't enjoy is manually brushing and vacuuming the pool on occasion.
My kidney shaped pool is 34' in length, but 8' of this is a sunning shelf with only 1' of water. (How do cleaners deal with these?) The width averages 13' and the deep end is 5'. My pool does have a dedicated suction line to accommodate a suction cleaner.
Given all of this, which way should I be leaning? Suction or robot?
Thanks!
Bill
