Pool n Spar Warehouse were offering such a great price I went with them.

published

Pool n Spar Warehouse were offering such a great price I went with them. Service was outstanding and item arrived within just a few days. As for the unit, it’s exactly as described and easy setup. I got the wall climbing one and it does exactly that. Pool is looking great. The unit is silent and turns itself off after 2.5 hours. Wish I had bought one instead of the old suction unit I bought last time.

Purchased in for $999.

Great product

published

Easy to setup & use ... 2 mins to setup & 2 hours to get the job done ... it does a great job of cleaning the pool & scrubbing the surface, much better than manual vacuuming ...

Works great, highly recommended

published

I have a small 6.5m x 2.5m fiberglass pool with a ledge all the way around it and wanted an inexpensive pool robot to keep it clean. The Zodiac FX18 is perfect and has no problems navigating past the ledge to clean the water line. It cleans the pool better than I could do with the vacuum in no time. It doesn't get all the dirt off of the ledge but that is to be expected and easily resolved by giving the ledge a very quick brush with a pool brush before throwing the robot in. I highly recommend the Zodiac FX18 and couldn't be happier with the value for money and its effectiveness.

Finally something that works

published

I recently purchased my Zodiac FX18 from Pool and Spa Supplies and could not be happier. Our new robot moves along the pool and collects the small rocks, leaves and dirt from the bottom, it also climbs the walls to clean. So much easier and a lot less manual labour. So happy.

Great little robot

published

After a lot of review reading I decided on the FX18. I am glad I did, cleaned my rather dirty pool easily and thoroughly. Even parts of palm fronds and plenty of leaves and dirt on the bottom. It hadn't been cleaned for weeks and this little cleaner took care of it easily.

Does what its supposed to do

published

Read all the reviews of robotic cleaners and just got confused with prices, problems etc.
So bought the one we could afford and are really pleased, easy to use does what its supposed to do.
Cleans the floor, walls AND the steps of our fibreglass pool, dirt, gumleaves, etc no problem.
Glad we didnt spend double the price or more

Can you leave this in the pool or does it need to be removed after each clean

It is a great product, it can be left but I would recommend it to be taken out after each use. We store it undercover after each use and ours still looks to be in a pristine condition.

Best to remove it after a clean as the hose will get in the way of swimming ... also after use you need to clean the filter so you naturally take it out to do that ... very easy to put in & take out and it's very light so easy to move & store ...

My fx18 runs for a short time then stops. I've changed the filter. The light on the unit flashes three times, then a pause, then flashes three times again etc. I can switch it off and back on again and it runs for another short time - time is variable - might be 5 minutes, might be 30 minutes. Please help.
