I have a Pentair Legend and it works very well picking up leaves and everything else. It even climbs the walls and sweeps my bench-step at the shallow end. However, it repeatedly vacuumed up the little "scrubbing collar" from the end of its own tail until that was ruined. Also, after about a year I had to replace the bag under warranty because the velcro deteriorated and the sweeper was just blowing everything out of the top of the bag. Very powerful.
