Description

Equipped with patented SmartDrive® technology, the Wanda the Whale Cleaner from Hayward is designed to automatically clean the bottom of all sizes and shapes of above-ground and on-ground pools quickly and completely—making sure no debris is left behind. It operates separately from your pool’s filtration system and connects directly to your skimmer, installing in less than 10 minutes without tools. A unique turbine system helps Wanda the Whale move gently across the bottom of your pool, providing exceptionally quiet performance while improving circulation by pulling water up from the bottom of the pool as it moves. A deluxe bumper ring reduces friction, guiding it away from walls, steps and ladders to continue the cleaning cycle until the job is done. This model comes with a 32 ft. hose

  • Love her! Don't know why I didn't do this earlier.
Style: Wanda The Whale
She may not look like a serious pool tool but this vac is excellent for keeping the floor of my pool clean! It's so easy to set up and works pretty much on her own (with an occasion unclog when the pine needles get in the pool.) I had a pool party and the pool started turning cloudy the next day, then a little green forming on the floor. We connected her and let her do her thing and she got the job done. At this point, I leave her on a couple days each week to make sure that everything gets picked up and to keep algae under control during this hot summer! I think we have finally figured out how to keep the water clean. I have been struggling each year that I've owned this pool to keep it clean and stabilized. The pool is situated next to a tree line with pine trees and mimosa (lots of little tiny leaves that drop all the time) and she is the perfect addition to the pool tools. ... show more

  • Our new best friend during the summer
Style: Wanda The Whale
This little guy is a godsend for a pool that was placed next to a dang pine tree. Needles, acorns, bugs in the pool all the time. This helps us keep it clean. Our water has never been so clear - we’ve lived here for 3 summers now. We bought this one to replace the one the previous owners left, looked to have been well loved and it was just time for a replacement. Great value, heavy and durable. It does its job and does it well. I joke it earns its keep around here. We have an above ground, round pool. This does not climb, it is solely powered by the filtering system to move around the bottom and vacuum up debris that falls down, which really helps with avoiding algae issues. ... show more

  • Works well, instruction incomplete
Style: Wanda The Whale
Was easier to set up, than the instructions indicate. There were no instructions regarding the black ring. I watched a u-tube to determine how to install. The tail also doesn’t fit in the body, but it’s not a needed part, so just didn’t use it. The vacuum does do a nice job cleaning the bottom of the pool. ... show more

  • Avoid this seller - useless/nonfunctional item and will not accept return
Style: Wanda The Whale
This item didn't work at all--it just tipped over constantly and I did hours of troubleshooting with online resources/manuals. I attempted to receive product support then return the item a few days after purchasing it, but the 'return product' process forced me into a funnel with an Amazon agent where I was told that the store was contacted. Three weeks later I reached out again because I hadn't heard back from BackyardPoolSuperstore, and an Amazon agent said I would hear from the company in 24h. I reached out a third time because I never heard back and a new Amazon agent told me that the 2nd agent never contacted the company, but that the issue would be sorted out. Backyard Pool Superstore LLC said they will not accept a return because it has been over 30 days. If you check the Better Business Bureau complaints against Backyard Pool Superstore LLC, it appears I’m not alone in being turned away for returns on faulty products. Save yourself the headache and avoid. ... show more

Works great and delivery was fast. Will recommend to all my friends.

  • Wanda is Wonderful
Style: Wanda The Whale
She does exactly as stated and moves around the pool to clean up the bottom. We had the ladybug years ago and finally needed a replacement. This is easy to set up, saves us time from vacuuming the pool by hand. Worth every penny and the price is very reasonable! So far it appears to be as durable as the lady bug we had forever! ... show more

  • Disappointed
Style: Wanda The Whale
Very disappointed in this vacuum. We have used the his brand previously and it worked great for many years. This one is worthless, stays in the same location going around in circles.

  • It has no problem with small wrinkles
Style: Wanda The Whale
It actually did pretty well. It made it over the wrinkles fine. It did get stuck a couple of times, but it freed itself every time but one. It got every leaf out except for a really big one. Other than than, it gets out all of the dirt and other stuff that gets tracked in. It's not fast, but you get to leave your filter running. ... show more
