I don't know anything about the Hayward, but my vote is for Polaris. I haven't seen any reviews for the new polaris yet either but I have the 380model and love it....the first one I had for 7 years and in that time replaced the belts, wheels and backup valve one time (my Polaris lives and works in my pool yearround). So when I decided to get a new cleaner, the 380 is what I went with again.
By the way, welcome to the forum, glad to see you!!
