Just bought a Baracuda G4 any comments..

I received my G4 Thursday!
Here's what I've learned so far:
It works real good-if it runs over it, it sucks it up!
It loves the deep end!
With the hose weight 1 meter from the head, it works well in the deep end but not in the shallow end.
With the hose weight off, it works well in the shallow end, but not in the deep end.
I need more hose to run it from the skimmer in the shallow end and more hose is expensive.
I cannot run both skimmers and the bottom suction with the G4 running from either skimmer.
If I want 100% clean, I have to touch up with the manual vac a little.

This sounds basically like my Polaris 150 (new version) I think the G4 and the 150 are the same, but diffent names and price tag.

BKNY, Now that you've run it for a few weeks, what are your thoughts on the G4?

I love it..then again i love anything that does work for me while i sit around drinking Vodka and OJ
but i have to say it works really well.
i also rebuilt my motor so it really works great now
