I had this same pool vac for the past 8 years and it worked fine for seven years. Then this last year it started acting up. I put nearly $100 in parts into it and then something else went belly-up. Tired of messing around with it in my shop, I decided to replace it and use the old one for parts. The new one is SO much better that I had forgotten how it was supposed to operate! This is certainly the best vac for the money by far! I should have just bought the new one a year ago.

A few things to improve on for Hayward..1. Despite trying all adjustments unit does tend to dwell in corners for reasonably long periods (eventually moves itself however)2. Pool coverage is average, appears to track a similar pattern often despite so called programmed ability so this does not happen?3. I would recommend including a hose/unit weight as an addition.Previous units I have had include a weight fitted to the closest hose to the vac - assists in keeping it grounded.* Be helpful I feel as the unit does do a bit of side tipping in the beveled corners, and not sticking to floor surface here and there (Tried all three flap adjustments - no different)4. Should include a hose adaptor or two in differing sizes as the supplied hose would not connect ... MoreA few things to improve on for Hayward..1.

(Too small for hole, perhaps as its made for America not Australia?)5. Finally, I have a fiberglass pool with rounded floor to wall corners as pictured in the manual.. sorry guys it won't climb at all on any setting..Fortunately I do not require this function. So, if climbing is what you need.. try another unit.All in all seems a good average vac, just hope it lasts now!
