Cleaning Robot advice on purchasing a pool cleaning robot for inground pool?
any suggestions or advice on buying a pool robot, it's a big purchase so we want to get the best one for the money. Our built in pool is about 20 x 40 and goes from 3' to 8' deep. Thanks
there are 3 types of cleaners (or "robots") and you should choose which one you are looking for first.
There is the "suction side" cleaner, which hooks up to you skimmer and slurps around the bottom of the pool. These are the cheapest and least efficient.
There is the "Pressure side" cleaners (like a Ray-Vac) these get a stream of water from the pump to push it around the pool. We have one of these and it is great, we got if free from a friend who said it did not work.. so go figure. The biggest problem with these is that you have to hard-install some piping from the pump to the cleaner... that may be expensive if you are trying to add this to an existing pool.
Then there is a "robot" that roams around the bottom and sides of the pool. There are some robots that are battery operated and some that are plug in (with a long extension cord). It seems to me that the good ones are $2K or so.
With our Ray vac running, we vacuum about once a month. It was well worth it.

Greg Pak directs Robot Stories, a feature film made up of four separate vignettes set in the near future. In "My Robot Baby," Maria (Tamlyn Tomita) and Roy (James Saito) must take care of a robot baby before they can adopt a real one. In "The Robot Fixer," a car accident puts Wilson in a coma. His mother, Bernice Chin (Wai Ching Ho), tries to connect with him by repairing his old collection of toy robots. Her obsessive quest to find missing robot parts is observed by her daughter Grace (Cindy Cheung). In "Machine Love," a Sprout G9 iPerson (Greg Pak) is introduced to an office environment. In "Clay," sculptor John Lee (Sab Shimono) refuses to get scanned, which would merge his memory with a collective consciousness. He struggles to maintain his humanity against the judgement of his son Tommy (Ron Domingo) and wife Helen (Eisa Davis). ~ Andrea LeVasseur, Rovi
A young boy named Johnny (Gregory Moffett) is on a picnic with his widowed mother (Selena Royle) and sister (Claudia Barrett), when he meets a pair of archeologists (John Mylong, George Nader) exploring a nearby cave. Later, while napping, he has a dream -- that the Earth has been attacked by an alien named Ro-Man (played by George Barrows in a gorilla suit with a diving helmet), using the "calcinator death ray," and that he and his family (with Mylong and his mother now married) and scientist Nader are the only survivors. They try to elude capture by Ro-Man, who turns out to have some very human failings despite his mechanized mentality, including a desire to experience human emotions, which greatly complicates his efforts to destroy the family. ~ Bruce Eder, Rovi

robotic vacuums which automatic pool vacuum is best?
I want to buy an automatic pool vacuum. I was told there are 3 kinds: suction side, pressure side and robotic. Which of these works best and which is easiest to use? Also, what is a good brand/model and good price?
In my experience the best type of vacuums are suction side. You should consider a Polaris ATV. It can climb walls and has a bag for the bigger debris so it won't clog up your pipes or filter.
There's a good article on the following website about the different types of automatic vacuums...
