This vacuum head is great! The spring action helps keep the head firm against the wall of the pool as well as at the bottom. The hose fits snug to the head. I highly recommend.

Needed a better vacuum head to replace the one that came with our 18' x 42" above ground pool. This vacuum is really nice!! I love how it is heavier than the one we got with the pool. It glides along the bottom much better,... making it not as much work to vacuum the pool on a daily basis if you need to. The drawback is that with an above ground, if you have any wrinkles in the bottom of the liner, you may have some problems getting between the wrinkles. To fix this, I just swept the bottom of the pool really well, and focused on the wrinkled areas especially.

Great material, we got tired of changing pool maintenance companies. We bought everything and my pool looks better than ever

Simple. Arrived undamaged. Just like the ones at the big brand pool stores but half the price. Literally no difference.

It works fairly well. It’s not as weighted as my last one, tends to float off the bottom at times.

I’ve been using the SWIMLINE HYDROTOOLS Manual Vacuum Head for a few weeks now, and I have to say it’s been a game-changer for cleaning my pool. It attaches easily to my vacuum hose and does a great job of picking up all kinds of debris—whether it's small dirt or larger leaves. The brushes on the bottom really help scrub the floor, making it look spotless. It’s lightweight, so I don’t feel like I’m struggling to move it around, and it glides over the pool floor smoothly. Sure, it’s a manual vacuum, so you have to put in a little elbow grease, but it’s super effective and gets the job done quickly. If you want a reliable tool to help keep your pool clean without spending a fortune, this one is definitely worth it!

See my 06/01/17 update below. See my most recent update!! My "2 cents" review and the facts. Nothing makes me more angry than misinformation so here's the truth. First off, I bought this directly from Amazon, so there is no third party to blame or commend. At just under $15 and free shipping, at time of this writing, it's not a bad deal. The actual outermost dimensions not including the handle, of the unit I received are exactly 13.25" x 7", this includes the wheels. Anybody that tells you differently, can't read a tape measure. Second, weighted? should weigh more, I weighed the unit and it comes in at about 2 lbs. 6 oz. and I am being generous, my older one was heavier which kept it down, the heavier the better. The unit is flexible, but not as flexible as I expected, or compared to my previously all (mostly) blue unit from a national pool retail chain. Now, this isn't all bad as I found out. The more rigid body seems to be a benefit to function, as it appears to prevent "vacuum lock" where my old one would "stick" to the bottom of the pool floor in some locations. This allows me to run more negative pressure to the vacuum head, and seems to clean more thoroughly. The wheels appear to be urethane, they are not, they are hard like PVC pipe. They aren't any harder than most cleaners I've seen, but softer would have been nice. The hose attachment is nice as it accommodates both 1.25" and 1.5", there is also "swivel action" at the hose connector, which should help keep the hose untangled. Not sure if hardware is stainless, time will tell. I kept all the hardware from my old unit should any need replacing. Now, my last comment is regarding the spring???? At first, I thought that it was a good idea since when I clean the vertical walls, the old cleaner would float away from the surface sometimes, and this spring might keep the head parallel to the handle when going up and down. Well, that might or might not be the case, as I didn't get that far in testing as when I first tried it on the floor of the pool, the spring kept popping the head up from the floor. Removing the spring seemed to be much better, at least for cleaning the floor. all in all, and depending on how long it lasts, I think it's a fair price for what you get, I'll keep it. Update 06/01/2017 RUST! All the metal fasteners of this product have rusted severely and now I have to replace them or face stains in my pool. Update 06/02/2017 RUST! I went to my local hardware store and purchased all new SS metal fasteners for this pool vac. Upon disassembly, it becomes obvious that the rust I suspected on the fasteners, is in fact coming from the internal weights! The manufacturer installed steel weights within the product. They aren't rust proofed , so they rust. My old one had lead, which fortunately I held onto in case I needed them in the future for such a repair. I get that lead has all that bad stigma and such, but this manufacturer could have encapsulated the weights into plastic, etc., to prevent rust. My advice is this, buy something better if you care about your pool finish and your filter element, as this will mess you up for sure!

I attached my tube to this product and unfortunately, it broke my tube. Which made it useless and now I need a new tube.

Super easy and efficient vacuum. Wheels are far superior to the old brush type system and suction is great..... Very effective and easy to maneuver.

Embout d'aspiration très efficace. Je possédais le même genre d'embout auparavant, mais sans le lestage. Or ici, la différence est notable : cette brosse d'aspiration reste bien plaquée dans le fond de la piscine, ce qui réduit les efforts et assure une meilleure aspiration.

Excelente calidad

Thanks to it having wheels, it is far easier to use when compared to a cheap vinyl brissle Vacuum Head. Spring was tricky to install as there are no instructions but luckily other reviewers have added photos of how it's meant to be installed. You need to apply a bit of pressure to make the holes and spring line up for the pin to be inserted fully. Make sure that your tele-pole has two holes on the end to slip over and lock into this attatchment.
