Started great but then......
I think it's been about a year since purchasing and it worked great last season. This season started with the hose adapter cracking, and the vacuum not working very well. (Also missing the brush so that doesn't help) I'm not sure if the cracked stem on the adapter is the cause of the suction not working and the vacuum getting"stuck" but it's certainly frustrating. Probably going with a wireless/hose-less vacuum for the future. Meanwhile I have to attempt to get this one to work.

Flow clear pool vacuum
Worked for a few days. Cleaned everything out I purchased a bigger pump to support it and it just doesn’t drive. Waste of money would not recommend.

Will not work with Heyward skimmer
We bought thinking it would work with our new Heyward skimmer that is bolted to the side of our 22ft above ground pol with out Intex sand pump. It does not work at all. Will not suck enough water through the hose to get it to move. We almost burnt up our pump. Do not buy this product. The instructions are the worse I have ever see as well.

Great
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It is so easy to assemble and it attached on great to out above ground pool. As a stay at home mom with three small kids and husband at work I really enjoyed that he can just put the pool cleaner in the morning and start the cleaning process and once and the boys want to get in the pools already cleaned out. That was the big pro for us and before we had to clean it the old way by hand. I also really like the bristle brush on the bottom to really help pick up and the dirt an debris. The compartment that collects all the trash is also easy to clean so I would definitely recommend the pool cleaner.

Ehhh…
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I wasn’t sure what to expect with this product. Opening it up, the instructions were not the best. It took me some time to figure out how to hook it up the proper way. I got frustrated for sure. It seems like it is cleaning debris off the bottom but it’s not very user friendly and I don’t have the patience to fiddle with this all day long.

Great cleaner for any size pool
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is such an easy set up to clean your pool. This will clean a very large pool as that is what we have. We set it up and let it go for about an hour and our entire pool was clean. It's affordable and a must have for any pool owner.

Nice pool vacuum
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Easy to set up and use. We were so excited to use this that we went ahead and used it on our pool on this last warm spell of Kentucky weather. It worked decently well with minimal effort on my part. Easily connects to my pool filter and the vacuum propels around the pool and does the work. The handles make it easy to pull out.

Works great!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So long pool net! This vacuum is awesome! Was easy to assemble and clear directions. Does a great job picking up small debris from the bottom of our pool. Its very easy to maneuver and use. Makes cleaning a breeze and faster than ever! Great quality and well made.

Well made
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This thing feels very well made and super easy to use. Unfortunately my pool is closed for the season so I can’t comment on how well it works yet. But based on everything I can touch and see I can’t see why I wouldn’t do it’s job well.

Love it!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have had a pool for many many years and I can’t believe I ever lived without this thing!! The automatic pool cleaner is a lifesaver. I used to dread cleaning the pool multiple times a week, and now I don’t have to! I let the Aquadrift do all the work for me. I like how there are handles on it so it’s easy to lift out of the pool. Now I get to spend more time lounging by the pool instead of cleaning it!

Easy to use
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Cannot wait for summer to really see how this turns out. Took out to assemble and make sure it would work. Easy set up. Easy to take apart to put away. Not overly bulky but not quite space saving either. Really hope this does the job when using in the pool.

Must have
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Flowclear AquaDrift Automatic Pool Vacuum Cleaner is the perfect addition to our pool. This makes it easy to clean our pool. Setup was a breeze, just connected it to the filter pump and it moves on it's own propelled by this across the bottom of the pool cleaning as it goes. This picks up dirt and sand from the bottom of the pool. It had no issue reaching all ends of my pool and cleaning the entirety. It has handles for easy carrying as well. This is an absolute necessity for pool owners and so much easy than using a handheld pool vacuum! Highly recommend

Time saver
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great time saver. We leave it on anytime we are not in the pool it does a great job for the price. We no longer néed to take time to vacuum before we swim. Love it to death. Would definitely recommend.

Confusing
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This vaccume does an okay job but I wouldn't recommend it. The instructions are confusing. It hits a wrinkle in the pool and stops or worse turns the spout and blows dirt the other direction. Might not be bad if you're constantly watching it...

It works and does a great cleaning job!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This does a great job sectioning up all the dirt and debri in my pool. We spend a lot of time in the pool so we needed something like this that has been easy to set up and use. It can be set to work automatically. It is very functional and well made! I would definitely by a product from this company in the future!!

Easy to use
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Flowclear Aquadrift pool vacuum seems to be pretty easy to set up and use. Not many moving parts and hooks right into the pool filter. We have an approximately 30' above ground pool and very sandy ground surrounding it. Hopefully this will help keep it clean.

Looks Like a Lawnmower
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Unfortunately, its winter here and our pool froze before I received it and I have not been able to use the item! I will say I think it is really cute as it looks like a lawnmower or little car. My husband uses an automatic cleaner, but it is smaller than this one so we are hoping it covers a larger area in a quicker amount of time.
