Introducing myself & my pool/asking advice for automatic pool cleaner to buy

Happy with my Hayward RC9730BL. Easy to clean. Good phone support.

Oh, a pool without algae is a dream at this point. After the liner was installed, the pool guys put our drop in steps back in (they weren't supposed to because the sand bags had not been cleaned yet, although the steps had. We had a liner failure along with a massive pool leak in the return line and our pool was a frog hole for about two months before the work started.

When the weather warmed up the algae took off. We got it knocked down and then it started growing in the open area under the steps again. When I brushed, a green tide went all over the pool.. We had another clog in a line last week, and the pool guy told us it is yellow algae. So it is back to the drawing board for us.

The bottom of the pool was clean - not now. Back to the drawing board - kill algae, remove dead algae, etc.

Get a K2006, so you can manage chlorine levels and raise them to the high shock range, and CLEAN UP that algae. It is NOT something you have to live with!

I love the polaris 9300..used it 3 times now very simple set up and operation...however..it doesn't get every inch and I'm still left with small leaves scattered around. I'll never get them all with the net too. Perhaps i should have gotten the one with the remote
