anybody have experience with robotic pool cleaners? They are more expensive than others, are they
worth the money? We are looking at purchasing a Dolphin diagnostic for our in ground pool at home.

We have a Barracuda and it is well worth the £600 we paid. I no longer spend any time
cleaning the pool.

In my opinion robotic cleaners are a great time saver and help promote destratification of your pool
water. Personally, I use a Aquabot. The filter bag is reusable and it runs independent of your pool
filter. Once you see what these robots suck up out of the cleanest looking pool you'll wonder why
anyone would go without. Ticks, leaves, you name it, are drawn out. Some filter bags will even
remove algae. Aquabot's will. Power draw is 24 volts. Runs about 25 cents for 6 hours. Climbs walls
and steps. Cleans above the water line. Pumps 3500 gallons per hour through itself. Automatic
shut-off after 6 hours.

Anyone know if any of the robotic cleaners work on above ground pools, for us less advantaged
pool owners
