Now go hug a tree and say you’re sorry …
I’ve been onsite where they dump all the homeowner sorted stuff in a mega pile and then sort it for real. I’m convinced we separate everything to feel good alone.

They also don’t spray the windows of the house or drain several inches of water from the pool when the dumb tail gets stuck on the decking!I know a lot of people have brought up the cost savings when using a Robot... While true, it is not a lot of money in real dollars..
In my mind there are only two reasons to own a robot..
1. They clean better than any water powered cleaners..
2. They are easy to take out of the pool when you want, so that you don't have to have an ugly mess in your pool 24/7.. If you look at most advertisements of pools, you don't see some ugly cleaner taking up space...
Thanks,

Attach the Tailsweep Pro to the Polaris tail. That completely eliminated the spraying issue for me.They also don’t spray the windows of the house or drain several inches of water from the pool when the dumb tail gets stuck on the decking!

I had the Polaris 380 for the first 13 years of owning my pool. I rebuilt it twice over that time. When it came to needing a third rebuild, I opted for a robot instead. I can say that my pool is a lot cleaner now. The Polaris may have a small advantage with leaves but when it came to fine dirt, the Polaris was not very good since the fine dirt when right through the mesh bag.
It depends on what you need, do you want it to clean the waterline as well as the pool? Is the cable long enough? Does it have fine filters included or do you have to purchase seperately? I didn't need mine to clean the waterline, but it does, and I am kind of glad that it does. It won't do the stairs, (it tries) but I just sweep them prior to getting the robot going.So if I want to keep cost to a minimum what is the suggested Robo cleaner? 14 x 33, 4 to 7 feet deep.
I don't need bells and whistles but would like something that cleans well.

Yes, the foam scrubbers are the same.Does the Tail Sweep Pro use the same foam scrubbers as the standard tail sweep?
It should be the same. Those foam scrubbers don't last that long and I always just replace with the cheapest generic ones I can find on Amazon in a multi-pack. It's the blue plastic bit that seems to be doing the main thing to prevent the excessive spraying by diffusing the stream.Does the Tail Sweep Pro use the same foam scrubbers as the standard tail sweep? I saw a video online that indicated the Pro version foam scrubber is a different material than the standard one, but I can’t find just the Pro foam replacement, just the entire Pro scrubber attachment (at much higher cost than replacing just the standard foam scrubber).
I’ve never owned a robot so I can’t speak to the experience of pulling it out of the pool. I don’t find pulling my 280 out of the pool that difficult. Both robot and pressure cleaners have some sort of cord attached. Both need to be unplugged from some sort of wall outlet. Why is pulling a robot out of the pool. easier?I know a lot of people have brought up the cost savings when using a Robot... While true, it is not a lot of money in real dollars..

What are the devices floating in the water?There is no way I would have a pool without my robot army. If they made another robot that worked better and did something else, I would probably get it.
