This is the second Blaster that I've bought on eBay. The first one was refurbished and sold as a working Blaster, but the connections were corroded. This time I bought a new one and it is really a great little vacuum. I use it in an indoor pool which is 5' deep and it picks up all the debris on the bottom of the pool. We bought a lightweight aluminum pole at Walmart which fits it perfectly. It has quite a bit of power and does a very good job.

awesome selller with quick delivery.... but am highly disappointed with product. this would be perfect if you have a small kiddie pool I have the old pool blaster which was amazing.. so was expecting the same satisfaction... booboo. no where even close. its about the third of the size which is ok if you have all day to vac ... and then there is the extender pole situation... went on just fine but cant get off by myself to change out to longer one.. .. so then had to get into the pool to finish vacuuming with this lil bitty vac head.. grrrrrrrrrrrr.... so frustrated! I feel like I just wasted my money!

Purchased this vac for our inground pool. This is a good vac, with good suction, however, the filter bag is way too small. It doesn't hold much debris, so we need to empty it once or twice to complete our inground pool. We did have the larger Pool Blaster with larger filter bag a few of years ago ( now higher priced ) but only lasted two years, then I bought a battery type one, did the job but battery run time was short. This is a good vac, just wish bag was bigger. Oh, and does not fit a standard pole, having difficulty finding correct size one.

Used after charging overnight. Works straight from the box. Does not fit intex 1" telescopics, needs 1.2" (Walmart....$25), can be fiddly to get on and off pole. To empty, lift from water, invert, then turn off, allow water to drain while inverted, then nothing falls back in pool. Empty frequently, picks up verything until it starts to fill up. May seem tedious, but LOTS better than fooling around with hoses, skimmer, pipe connections etc. Fine bag is VERY fine, removes pollen, algae, everything, overkill for normal cleaning. Very satisfied with product, well made, new on/off button 100% improvement. Battery? Only time will tell, but used daily so far with no problems.
The good: The product vacuums well for about 5 minutes, then the battery died (not so good). The bad: Unfortunately there were 2 significant problems with this pool vacuum. 1st of all, the pole pieces aren't made to the right specs so they don't snap together. You can jam the pieces together after a fashion but that predictably led to the cracking of one of the pieces. Had the unit worked well, I would have overlooked the defective pole. Unfortunately that wasn't the big problem. Having assembled the unit I put it to the test and it worked quite well.....for about 5 minutes. Battery died. OK, maybe I just needed to recharge it. Four hours of recharging gave me six minutes of operation, and a subsequent 5 hour charge yielded the same result. I had great hopes for this purchase. Maybe just got a dud battery but this coupled with the bad pole design didn't inspire me to ask for a replacement. Had no choice but to return the item. Will go back to laborious suction hose method. Too bad!Read full review
