They had these at Sams club last year for $89. I bought it for the hot tub as the kids friends are always bringing beach sand in (YUCK and for the pool shelf that the auto vac doesn't get too. The piece on the bottom broke off easily that keeps the garbage from coming back in, the system was NOT waterproof... I went through 2 of them before I wasn't using it (yes I returned 2 in 3 months)... It's ok for $89 but no way would I bother cleaning my pool with it. The automatic pool cleaners are worth every penney, I've had mine for 4 years and replaced $20 in parts.. Maybe for a kids pool but not an inground pool.

My experience has NOT been great.
