Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 9 June 2020 Style Name: Pool Vacuum Verified Purchase After researching all the options out there, I opted for this pool vacuum for out Bestway 12ft steel frame pool. Last year (when we didn't have a vacuum) it was a real hassel getting the gunk and bit from the bottom of the pool with a sieve on the end of a bamboo stick. This vacuum makes the job 1000x easier. I noticed in some of the previous reviews that people didn't rate the suction power of this model, but I have not found that to be an issue. If you hold the vacuum in the air (out of the water) and turn it on, sure you don't really feel anything, but once in the water it's a different matter. Raising the vac so that the outlet is slightly above the water level shows the throughput of water from the pool and it's a lot! One thing to note is that (as others have described) there is a "removable" grey plastic flap inside the suction head. I took this out and the suction seemed far better. You don't need any tools to remove the flap and you can easily replace it if you need to. Bugs, bits of grass, leaves, no problem - they all get caught in the filter bag which is incredibly easy to remove and rinse under a tap. Super efficient and easy to use. Would recommend this to anyone with a similar sized pool. Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 15 July 2019 Style Name: Pool Vacuum Verified Purchase I've been using this product for a couple of weeks, and up to now I can't fault it. i notice one customer complained that the battery compartment got wet. Used properly I can't see how this can happen. Common sense tells you to keep the battery/motor compartment out of the water. You need to be careful when taking it out of the pool to let the water drain away from the batteries. I was surprised at the amount of debris it picks up even though I clean the pool regularly. My advice is read the instructions first. It clearly states not to switch it on unless its in water, and to keep the batteries dry. Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 16 June 2019 Style Name: Pool Vacuum Verified Purchase This is one of those products a lot of people will get out the box without reading the instructions because its self explanatory. However if this isn't used correctly, you'll not get the best out of the product. Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 14 July 2018 Style Name: Pool Vacuum Verified Purchase Hi the unit first worked very well then the next day went to vlean the pool and no motor working.checked the battreys all ok.

I would rate it zero if i could.there have been reports of the same thing happening .i will try to get a refund but have thrown the box away Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 28 July 2018 Style Name: Pool Vacuum Verified Purchase Does what it says on the box!

We keep getting chlorine tablet bits that won't dissolve. It collected all of that up! Images in this review Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 21 August 2019 Style Name: Pool Vacuum Verified Purchase I would have thought that a vital characteristic of any pool cleaner would be 'waterproof' ... sadly, having tried and returned three of these pool cleaners, I have found this model to be unfit for purpose. I suppose it's okay if you can be very, very careful not to allow any water to access the battery which is located in the top of the handle but even when only using this in very shallow water, I still found that water managed to find its way into the battery compartment. This is a cheap piece of kit and my honest advice would be to go for the more expensive but far more superior Poolwonder NEW Li-Ion Battery Pool Vacuum & electric Spa Cleaner v2 with Water Sensor Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 7 June 2020 Style Name: Pool Vacuum Verified Purchase You must move it around very slowly to get any result as if you disturb the water the debris flies out of reach, dispersing into the water (so it looks like it's mostly gone, until it settles over the following minutes). Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 29 July 2021 Style Name: Spa Vacuum Verified Purchase It's a neat little unit on obviously perfect for lay z spa or any similar spa. I have been told the product should not be fully submerged but your not going to empty the spa each time you use it so it has less water. Also for the price a plug should be with the unit. But I guess it would cost more if one was added.Reviews with images

This does the job. I've got a Bestway fast set pool and after a couple of weeks, debris was starting to settle on the bottom.
When using the pool vacuum you need to use it very slowly so not to disturb and stir up the debris that's on the bottom of the pool. A bit of patients and regular clearing out of the filter (net) bag that is inside and you really cannot complain.
I wouldn't recommend this product for a large pool though. 
By Zoe on 28 July 2018 
Its suction power was pretty dissappointing, it does especially badly with sand, unfortunately as my pool sits on sand some finds its way in on feet or by wind, and it really doesn't come up easily. You can open up the dirt bag and clean it out and see you are removing something, but it seems to make little difference to the total amount of muck in the pool.
Other reviews mention the battery pack getting wet breaking it, I have always kept it upright during use, stored it upright and never left it out to get rained or splashed on, and given that it has kept working.
The charger pins get covered when you turn it on but are wet when removed from the spa this seems dangerous but lay z spa told me the vacuum should not be fully submerged
