    We HATE ours as well. We have a fiberglass pool with many articulations. First we had to get wheels that have suction cups on them to move around the pool. Then once we got it to move, it gets stuck on every curve so it just sits there. Anyone want one? We are looking at the Aquabot. That looks like it has treads (kind of like a tank) and not wheels. Does anyone have anything like that? Our thought is that it would not get stuck on the curves of our pool. Any suggestions?

    I have a love-hate relationship with mine. I love how it is integrated with my Jandy controller so I can set it to run when I want and forget about it. But I hate that it is always getting wrapped up on itself and gets hung up. If I don't catch it, I am just wasting money running it. I too have spent countless hours trying to adjust the thing. I did the tail adjustment to keep it from squirting my windows, and that helped. Whe it dies, I will probably buy an Aquabot or something similar.

    I have had my Aquabot for a year now and love it. I am amazed at how efficient it is.
