I Now Enjoy My Pool

published

Wanted to buy sooner but previous pool guy talked me into something else that was a disaster. Constant cleaning, mega money in chemicals. All because he was going to get a kick back and thought I'd be spending all that money in his store . This cleaner has made all the difference and saved me so much in wasted chemicals for a cleaner that just wasn't suitable.

Hi Chook, great to hear that you can now enjoy your pool thanks to the VX55 4WD! Happy swimming :)

It works great, is easy to use and cleanup afterwards. Does well on all debris I've had.
I was worried with my first pool that I'd spend too much time hooking up to the filter and cleaning. Now I just put it in and come back at the end, clean machine and put away until next clean.

The product has helped my pool a lot and every time I need it. It's easy to use, easy to store away, easy to operate. It cleans exceptional well. I just loved it so much and I would recommend to my friends and families who have a pool. It was my first pool cleaner and we chose it right.

Cleans pool well

published

Does a very good job of cleaning the pool. Have not had to spend as much on chemicals already which offsets initial outlay. I only really use it to clean bottom of the pool -my pool is kidney-bean shaped so does not go up the sides probably as efficiently as would in a square pool

Smart design. Works very well.

Love it. Much better than the previous brand, which gave me grief for 2 years. I sent it back twice for repairs. Zodiac gived 3 year warranty which gives me peace of mind. Bought it from a local store who will be there if we have any issues, So far geat service from my local store.

Hi Faz, fantastic to hear that you are happy with the product and received great service from one of our dealers! Happy swimming :)

Much better than a Creepy Krawly style cleaner

published

Easy to use.
Only takes one cycle of 95 mins to clean pool completely. Never gets stuck in corners or on steps.Can tangle near engine despite device to keep line straight. But this is minor.Will pick up large debris that would clog other cleaners.
Easy to store out of sight thereby enhancing clean cit appearance of pool &its surrounds

Hi Greg, thanks for the 5 star review!
Small tip if you are experiencing cable tangling, only use as much cable for your cleaner to get from one side to the order. Excess cable in the water may cause some tangling.

Cleans the pool perfectly every time without fail

published

Easy to use, pool has never looked so cleaner, picks up the bigger leaves which no other pool cleaner has, it cleans the dust / debris better than any other cleaner we have tried. The price is a little more than most cleaners but is well worth the extra money spent.

Great machine

published

After 8 months we're really happy with the VX55. It cleans bottom and sides including the waterline really well, remote and lift system all work beautifully as advertised. The only flaws are not being able to clean the steps or pool corners (but at least it never gets stuck!), and not picking up the finer dust. 8x4m fibreglass pool.

Met expectations and promises

Filter makes pool clearer and lessens load on skimmer as it cleans the edges too. A hook accessory, to assist lift, may be a good idea for we oldies, but not essential.
A brush insert into the scrubbers would assist with ingrained dirt but general performance excellent to all size debris.

very happy with my new cleaner

published

Purchased this cleaner after a few months of research, was a bit worried about spending $1500 but after using it 3 times now i am more that impressed. it works extremely well on my 8m x 4.5m free form concrete pool. first time i used it it did make the water a bit cloudy but i think that was due to there being a lot of stuff on the bottom of the pool. turned the filter on and that fixed the cloudiness. second time i used the cleaner it was even better and now my pool is cleaner that it ever has been.

very impressed so far very easy to use and it does a really good job.

Wish I had bought something else....

published

All this cleaner does is agitate all the dirt in my pool leaving cloudy murky water. This is caused by the strong water jet pushed out of the back of cleaner. Leaves and larger debris it manages,but everything else is just stirred up.. I have also tried the finer filter. Not happy as I bought "top of the range" cleaner and have gone back to using my pump cleaner. Waste of 2000 dollars.

Only two weeks old, but so far so good.

published

I've only had this cleaner for two weeks, but so far so good. It works very well cleaning the floor and walls, it picks up/cleans up everything it comes across, but I have one criticism and that is it struggles a bit on the steps. But as I said only two weeks so I'll give it a bit more time to map out the pool area and surfaces.

I put it in the pool a few times per week and it seems to do the job of keeping the pool clean and leave the skimmer free to do the skimming. I like a lot, the lift feature. I also find the rubbish basket easy to remove/replace and clean.

Overall I'm happy with the robot and would recommend it if the price doesn't scare you away.

Works reasonably well :-)

published

It works very good cleaning the floor and walls but it struggles a bit on the steps due to its size as it seems that there isn't enough space for it on a typical step. I have the 100 micron filter that helps with catching all the tiny stuff.
I put it in the pool a few times per week and it seems to do the job of keeping the pool clean and leave the skimmer free to do the skimming :-). Overall I'm happy with the robot and would recommend it if the price is no issue. However keep in mind the robot is rather big and on the heavy side so consider that aspect before purchasing.

Best Cleaner on the market

published

We have sold most brands of cleaner and have found the Zodiac VX55 unbeatable for cleaning ability and reliability compared to their competitors. The functionality of the cleaner timer and the lift system for removal from the water are also unrivalled. Zodiac have recently released a cable swivel but i have never had a problem with cable tangles when the cleaner is set up correctly and even when customers have just thrown the whole cable into the pool.
We tested the cleaner for 6 months before recommending to customers, then we staked our reputation on this range of cleaner and it has come through better than we ever expected.
Truly exceptional and our customers are so impressed with the results.

I brought the one with the longer lead and the remote, ! It's no worth the extra cost, 3k in nz, might sound to much but I am very happy with the easy clean filter system,. better than any others. Don't believe all the hype about it cleaning the walls,, but it's the only way to clean the pool ! It shows in what comes out in the filter

Hi, I have a vx55 that’s about 3 year old. I seem to have the same problem that others have raised. Originally it was very good but now it seems to run backwards when it should be going forwards and it flips on its back and does a pretty useless job cleaning the pool. Just out of warranty so it’s an expensive and frustrating way to keep the pool clean for a couple of years. Anyone else resolved this kind of problem?
