Hey everyone-
My Polaris 360 doesn't seem to be working great - it does get a lot of leaves (I typically empty the bag twice a week) but there is a good amount of fine dust/dirt at the bottom and of course it doesn't clean the walls. The plaster is pitting pretty bad and there is some residual algae on the stairs, so its not the prettiest. Trying to clean things up before the summer.
Based on what I've read in the forums, a robot might be the solution to a cleaner looking pool and potentially a lower electric bill. On my local craigslist I see the following options:
Polaris 8050 robot - $699
Hayward Tigershark QC with caddy - $599
Other option is to maybe replace the line or otherwise troubleshoot my Polaris and just get used to brushing more often.
What would you guys do if this was your pool? Thanks!
