    Last year I had an AG pool and used a "ladybug" I loved it, but her rubber feet ketp coming off, so I wouldn't recommend it.

    I had an IG kidney shaped, 16x24 built (just completed - still need decking) and it came with a Kreepy Krawly. I've used it 3 days in a row now and I"m very amazed by this device, it climbs right up the walls and is very effective.

    I have an aquabot. It is expensive, but I love it. I have a 16 x 33 fiberglass pool, and never have to use the vacuum.

    I think you'll find that many people on this forum use the dolphin by Maytronics (http://www.maytronics.com)

    I went with the Hayward Phantom and it has been great thus far . . . we'll see how it lasts . . . the surface mode does a great job especially around the perimeter of the pool as it usually goes around the outside, where most of our surface junk accumulates.

    I got the maytronics dolphin last year - could not be happier. I throw it in at night and pull it out in the morning. Very easy to use and did a very good job. I have an inground vinyl 16 x 32.
