This Creepy does the job as good as the name brands costing 200% more. It was a challenge to install as the way the instructions and parts furnished tell you do does not work. With a little ingenuity it works fine. Makes you wonder why the big name brands cost about $250 more for the same function that this Creepy provides.

It works very well and quietly, but the plastic parts especially the pipes are falling apart. My first unit got broken about 2 years in service which with today's quality is OK I guess, but the second one started disintegrating after only 3 months in service. I will not buy this brand again.

This is really impressive. I live in a very dusty area with windstorms and lots of debris blowing into the pool probably a couple of times a week. Over the last year I had been skimming the pool 3 times a day, brushing (algae) every day and doing a full vacuum about every week (lots of labor). This takes care of the vacuuming and the brushing! Easy to assemble (10 minutes). The hoses seem really well made, maybe a siliconized plastic, but definitely not rigid as others commented. Using on a 1.5 HP motor with DE filter. Of course I used it full suction at first (adjustable at the intake) and it had been working a regular pattern over and over. I tried removing some hose, adding the included weight which did not help. It would also walk right up the side of the pool and start sucking air at the surface. Turn the suction WAY down and it will work nearly an entire pool in a couple of hours. Also happy to say it is picking up nearly all the leaves (about 2 inches) and leaving a clean pool, even the sides. No more algae brushing either.

I have purchased several pool sweeps over the years, even more expensive units from reputable pool stores, but this unit has proven to work the best of all of them. It is quiet, sticks to the pool's walls well, decent speed, and unlike some of the others I have had, has lasted over a year without the need for any replacement parts.I had doubts at first before purchasing since I had bought less expensive units in the past that broke after 6 months, so I am glad to have given this unit a try. Has been a pleasant surprise!

It is easy to install and does a great job cleaning my pool. Every once in a while it goes above the water line and you can hear it, but it’s doing what it is supposed to do, so I don’t mind.

First this is a great price point. It does the job and have had no issues with it, it’s been cleaning daily for over a week now.Assembly was simple, note it’s best to get the tubes wet or connecting them in the pool to seat end to end tight.I am using my skimmer for the pump side connection and it would be great if they supplied a flat plate adapter. The adapter they provided is a softer plastic meant to fit different size plumbing, it works, but was sucked down into the plumbing a bit more than I would like. Had to pry it out and use it backwards which has worked perfectly.For the price, this is an outstanding in ground pool cleaner, it goes up the sides and all around.

Previous Zodiac Barracuda G3 owner. Bought this brand to save a few bucks. Heres the most notable differences I found upon install:1) Hoses are much more rigid & feel more plastic to the touch. Hoses need to be very flexible these are not. May become more flexible in time. We'll have to wait & see.2) I have a vac line on sidewall of my inground pool. Vac line is a 1.5 inch Hayward female. This cleaner comes with a few rubberized fittings & even a flow adjuster but it just falls out of my threaded vac line. Ive worked on this connection for the past 3 hours to no avail. I am now going to my local pool store to see if they have a male to male connection. THIS COULDVE BEEN SOLVED BY MANUFACTURER BY JUST INCLUDING 1x MALE TO MALE HOSE.3) Suction seems fine for the 30 secs i held hose into wall.4) Compared to a Barracuda its cheap quality but im selling my house anyway so idc.5) I predict 1 or 2 years of usage before needing replacement.*******UPDATE******** I WAS RIGHT! NEEDS REPLACED. HEAD SHEARED OFF. NO FIXING IT. PLASTIC WAAAAY TO BRITTLE. WILL BUY BARACUDA AGAIN. HORRIBLE PRODUCT. BUYER BEWARE******Pics attached*******

I purchased this Octopus in March 2023. Mid July (4 months) the performance went from incredible to good. Late August I replaced the diaphragm hoping it would help, it did not. At the 6 month mark it started just circling and getting wrapped up in the same spot. I could not find an issue. I kept adjusting suction with no success.Today (10 months) I finally took it apart (again) carefully inspecting each part to figure out what was wrong as there was quite a bit of movement.Part B6 which diaphragm connects to on one end, and suction hose on the other has a molded ring to reduce movement up and down. It is basically worn off so there's way too much travel inside the unit.As others have said, there is zero support. This wear parts should be sold for repairs.Brand name units cost so much more up front, but last 10 years or more because parts are readily available.I'm not buying this one again.
