As you can see in my signature, I have a smaller vinyl liner IG pool. During the swim season, there is very little debris that gets in the pool, and I am looking for a vacuum that is sturdy, and has a long term warranty (maybe not available). It does not matter if it is a suction side (working off the skimmers), and/or if has an extension cord that is powered by electricity (preferred). Also, have a small hand help vacuum for a few minor things that are small and need to be picked up, and of course I manually vacuum off the suction of the skimmer when there is a big storm or in the beginning of the season or at the end before pool closing.

I would rather have a vacuum that is plugged into an electrical line, as the vacuum can run with no water movement to pick up debris. Also, how long does it take for a pool vacuum to pick up all the debris? The pool is 17*33 with an 8' depth, - 14,700 gallons.

I have 2 skimmers, 2 main drains, 8 returns and pressure is at around 24 psi as I have 4 circulators, 2 spinner in the steps, and 2 Fusion Returns. Water moves pretty quickly and I have 2" plumbing as well. I want to stay in the price range of $500-$600 max, maybe $750 if there is a 3 year or 5 year warranty.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
 
We have an Active 20 (S200) robot, works great, cleans the pool well, easy to clean filter system, etc. $700. Not sure on warranty, never think they are worth much after the first few months.
