    So NWMNMom Did you decide on one?
    I can only find 2 AG robotics..... the Robo-kleen & the Aquabot Pool Rovers....
    Have you found any others?

    I've had it w/ using my PoolBuster Max for 2-3hours every time we want to swim. We live on dirt roads and we always have to vac up the dust that settles to the bottom of the pool. If its a sunny week & we want to swim everyday we have to vac everyday. The pool is 33'. The PoolBuster only holds a charge for one hour, that is not enough time for us to vac the whole pool completely clean.
    I am ready for a robotic. Plug it in and throw it in. I was considering a pressure side cleaner but i think i really want the *polishing* everyone talks about w/ the robotics. We have dirt and pollens in the air like crazy, maybe the robotics would be worth the extra $$$ to not have to manual vac & to have the water sparkle.
    I love the Pool Buster Max but I don't love it enough to spend 2 hours a day w/ it.
    Please let us know what you decided to do.

    I bought a Robokleen last june it died within a few weeks. I sent it back and had to insist they pay shipping. Got it back at the end of the summer worked great. This year the plug started melting and now it doesn't work. They won't fix or replace it under warranty, and the won't even sell me parts. They said I can send it back and pay to have it fixed which will probably cost about 75% of what I paid for it. Like I am sure I am going to do that.

    bottom line the Robokleen works great while it is working, but they die frequently, check epinions.com, and the company is slow to fix them, and they won't even sell you parts. I wouldn't give you a nickel for a truck load of them, well actually I would I am going to need them for parts LOL.
