Doesn’t climb the walls in fibreglass pool
We have gum and palm trees around the pool. Seemed logical to get Sprinta Plus. Purchased Sprinta Plus from Clarke Rubber based on reviews and an advise from company rep.
It arrived without a third adapter ( suitable for most pools, the one that we needed), had to go to the shop to pick it up.
To be honest we got a lot of help from company rep with a correct instalment.
Problem is it doesn’t climb the walls and stands at the wall looking as if wanting to climb up until we move it. A lot of money spent for half satisfaction.

Lilttle Sprinta, little beauty
It took a few false starts with other brands and designs and I was despairing that there was not a vac system to suit my strangely shaped (lagoon) and variable depth pool, on the market.
Sprinta to the rescue. It does everything I need it to do. I have a lot of gum trees around me, and other deciduous trees that seem to be attracted to my pool.
The Sprinta copes with it all. If it sucks up a twig it is so easy to clear the blockage.
I recently had the pool repainted and after a few months I put my Sprinta back in the water. A problem devel...

Fabulous pool cleaner which saves us time.
We get a lot of leaves from our clumping bamboo trees alongside our pool, and the kreepy krauly is fantastic in cleaning up all the leaves. It’s easy to use. Our second kreepy krauly.

Absolutely disappointing. Worst ever.
Bought this brand new on the promise that it doesn't get stuck and will climb. Pool is fibregass, rounded edges no obstructions. Could not get more basic. The cleaner heads straight for the side, doesnt climb and sits there until moved. Have rung up the number supplied by Kreepy Krauly Australia. They recommended I try adjusting the height adjustment screw. No difference. Told me I would need to buy a hose twister to make it turn. I have the most basic pool for cleaning purposes and this piece of rubbish won't work in it. If a hose twister is what is needed then supply it as part of the kit. Absolute crap! DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY LIKE I DID!! Never, ever again Kreepy Krauly!! EVER!!

Sprinta Plus works it’s magic
We have had many pool cleaners over the years but the Sprinta Plus is heads above the rest. We have Tall trees with large leaves all around our vinyl lined tear drop shaped pool with deep-end. This busy little bugger doesn’t miss a thing. Best cleaner we EVER owned. Kreepy Krauly Rep even came out to see how it was going. Highly recommend for those with odd shaped and vinyl lined pools.

Not suited to my pool - despite the marketing material
My pool is a freestyle pebble crete with lots of round edges and it seems unsuitable for this type of cleaner. I have had a Kreepy Krauly Marathon which is over 20 years old and I have been repairing it from parts and pieces of old devices. The Maraton did a really good job for all that time. I decided that it was time for a change and unfortunately I chose this cleaner based on reviews on a consumer website. It was an expensive waste of money.
On the plus side, the cleaner is fast, doesn't require much pressure to operate and cleans effective...
Read morely in the areas where it works. It gets stuck on twigs. On the negative side, it struggles to go from the deep end to the shallow end nor will it go up slopes, which in my pool are quite a large part of the bottom. The cleaner approaches an inclining slope, pauses and turns around. It will not clean walls, which the marketing material indicated that it would.Purchased at Clark Rubber Physical Store for $689.

Best cleaner yet
I have neighbours with lots of trees and of course these end up in my pool. This cleaner is the 1st one I have purchased that is able to handle the larger leaves without blockage. Fantastic product.

We have never had a problem with the Kreepy Krauly
It cleans thoroughly into all corners both shallow and deep ends
It climbs the wall to the water line which cleans the step that is all the way around the pool

Best pool cleaner ever!
Best pool cleaner we have had! Picks up all the small debris with ease. Great after sales service as well! Locally made is a huge bonus too which has made servicing it even easier.

By far the best auto pool cleaner out there
I bought this cleaner after my old cleaner kept getting stuck in a corner near some steps in my pool.
It was no fun having to move the cleaner from out of the corner every 20-30 minutes or so I may as well clean it by hand.
Since I have had this cleaner running I have not had to go near the pool to move a stuck cleaner I am so very impressed and happy.
It is value for money in terms of peace of mind.

Sprinta Plus for us!!
Extremely happy with our Sprinta Plus. We've been surrounded by construction for many months, and this is the first cleaner that has been strong enough to keep the pool clean without manual intervention. Exceptional suction, and never gets stuck. Couldn't be happier.

Would recommend.
Kreepy Krauly cleans good. Recommend. It doesn’t get in the way at all when using the pool and my family wouldn’t be able to leave without it. Very good addition.

Hands down best cleaner out there! Sprinta plus
Hands down the best pool cleaner I have ever owned. I've had it for about 9 months now and can say it is impossible to be "stuck" anywhere.
I love the simplicity of it being vacumn operated and no extra cables required. It sucks up everything from sand to small twigs.
I find it gets to all the corners and does a very good job.
It's made in Australia too so parts are easy to obtain.
I've owned 4 pools over the past 30 years and have tried many different cleaners. Not only am I satisfied, I'm actually impressed.
Bear in mind like all other cleaners, kids toys can get stuck.
My current pool is fibreglass with chlorine.
