Aren't they great? All the Zen of vacuuming with none of the hassle of hoses and suction failures!
They really are! I just wish I could’ve gotten it at the pre-Covid “everyone has a pool now” priceAren't they great? All the Zen of vacuuming with none of the hassle of hoses and suction failures!
Update!
So I bought both the wheeled vac head from Amazon, and I bought a triangular head from Menards much like the one mentioned (but a different brand).
The wheeled vac, unfortunately, the edges of the wheels were very poorly finished and I didn’t trust it not to harm my liner. It’s too bad, because it was a great weight and I think could have worked really well. So that one will be going back.
I verified that both the triangular head and my original head kept my pump at 17psi, which is the normal pressure. So no leaks.
The triangular head works MUCH better than the original one. It’s heavier, and stays down better. It also has a rubber-like strip all around the bottom, in addition to brushes, and gets good suction. So I’m going to stick with the triangle head and I’ll be good for now!
Thanks all for your feedback and sharing your own experiences. Lots of great additional ideas here to try in the future.
I have a Watertech Pool Blaster, runs off batteries. Best $80 I ever spent.
I bought this. It’s a great middle ground pool vac. Easier/quicker to use than a regular vac without the expense of a robotic (all the robotic ones I found were around $400-$600). Zero worry about getting air out of hoses or letting air get into the pump/filter. Just attach it to your attachments pole, hit “ON”, and you’re off. What a time saver! It came with a micro filter debris bag and it’s impressive with the amount of stuff it picks up! It holds its charge for about 60 min, which is plenty of time for me (and by “me” I mean the kids ) to vacuum our 24’ pool.
