Review: Excellent Pool Cleaner - This Polaris Vac-Sweep 280 is the VERY BEST pool cleaner out there. It was recommended by the person who cleans our pool and she was spot on - this is amazing. It does the job daily, without hesitation. It moves throughout the pool easily, doesn't get tangled, and it's quiet. Love this!
Review: Works Well: A Polaris Vac-Sweep 280 F5 Pressure-Side Automatic In-Ground Pool Cleaner Review - We started with a Polaris pool cleaner before our pool guy conned us into trading it in for a Pentair. He told us the black Pentair would work as well and look good in our pool. Well, he was half right, the black did look good in the pool, but the Pentair never performed very well. When it started falling apart we opted to replace instead of repair. We decided to move back to Polaris, and researched the Black Max. However choosing a black option added significant cost. We also researched more expensive models, however the sales associates at Leslie's pools explained how the more expensive models were newer and less proven while being more costlier to maintain. Being frugal with our money, we decided on the Polaris 280. Installation started with removing the old Pentair from our in-ground pool, including the wall fitting. Then I reinserted the new one using the recommended water flow restrictor. Once in place I connected the hose and sized the line per the instructions. Lastly, I connected the Polaris 280 to the hose and placed it in the pool. I took my time and made sure I understood what I was doing, even so it only took about an hour to set up. There are fine tuning options available to correct over spinning and such, but all worked well for me with the factory settings. The Pentair would constantly get stuck, requiring us to go out and free it. We don't have this problem with the Polaris 280. Even when it hits the hose at the intake at the wall fitting, it manages to free itself. If you're looking for a pool sweep that actually works and is reasonable to maintain, the Polaris Vac-Sweep 280 F5 Pressure-Side Automatic In-Ground Pool Cleaner is a worthy option at a reasonable price when compared to the alternative. PROS: Better than our old Pentair Actually sweeps and cleans Problem free and lower maintenance costs CONS: A bit pricy (look for a warehouse deal)

## Questions & Answers

**Q: what comes with the F5 Polaris vac-Sweep 280 for $419.84**
A: A new attachment for pool wall, 30' of tubing with floats attached, check valve for movement reversal, and of course the 280 and debri trap.  Basically if you had one before you just plug this one in.  Great deal.

**Q: Does the 360 come with the fatter hose?**
A: Yes, the large hose is shipped in the package.

**Q: The line coming from the side of the pool to the Polaris 280 will shoot out water from the booster pump correct? Like a turned on water hose.**
A: Yes Correct

**Q: I have a 280, which is about to go into nether-nether land.  Will the 360 connection fit into the original 280 opening on the pool wall?**
A: The 360 will not work in your situation. If you have a 180, 280 or 380 then you have a booster pump and the 360 model is designed to be used is systems that do not have a booster pump. It will mount up the same but it will not work correctly and will be a nightmare to maintain. The plumbing on the pool would have to be changed and I don't see any reason anybody would do that to make an inferior cleaner work.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works great with my solar skimmer
*by D***A on September 2, 2025*

So much better than the pentair racer that came with our pool. That thing got stuck everywhere, and no adjustments could solve it. This one has lots of adjustments to help it turn instead of getting stuck. I put my swimsuit on and jumped in the pool with it. I would set it to the spot where the racer got stuck. Same problem with Polaris at first. But I adjusted the float and the jet, boom, it turns. There are a few times it still gets stuck somewhere, but the rescue valve opens every few minutes and drags it to another party of the pool. So it is never totally stuck. I recently added an Aiper Surfer S2 solar skimmer. They say that won't work with a pressure hose cleaner like the Polaris. But I got them to play nice. I removed 6 floats from the Polaris hose. So only a couple of floats holding it at the surface. It doesn't get tangled, and the skimmer can push right over the last couple of floats. Works great and the pool looks amazing. It stays so clean now. Skimmer gets most things that blow in, before they can sink. The Polaris gets anything that manages to sink. Very happy with the Polaris.
