What is Diver Dave?

Why should you buy Diver Dave pool cleaner? First some background information. This summer pool season I was thinking that I had enough of killing myself trying to keep my large above ground pool clean. The main thing I was hoping to do was to be able to avoid sweeping or vacuuming the pool when the algae build up drops down to the bottom of the pool. The sweeping of the pool like this from all around the sides of the pool is the most physically demanding part for me of keeping the pool clean. I decided to try an automatic pool vacuum cleaner. After looking at several models and not wanting to spend too much on this device to make my life easier, I decided to buy a Diver Dave pool cleaner. Dive Dave has friends called Wanda the Whale and Aqua Bug that pretty much do the same thing. Both are featured above right. If you choose to click over on the Amazon ad from here you can rest assured that all normal purchasing rules will apply with them as normal. I will make a small commission from the sale for going to the trouble of writing this article for you to help you make an informed decision. You WILL NOT pay any more money for your item because of this.

Does it work?

The answer to that question is yes. Diver Dave pool cleaner does indeed work. There are some things you need to keep in my about making it work well. First, it works best if your above ground pool has no wrinkles on the bottom. Now, I know my pool bottom is far from wrinkle free. It also covers parts of my yard that are higher in some places than others. That being said, this device will "hang up" on bad wrinkles on the bottom. I found that works best for me in using this device for my pool is to hook Diver Dave up to the pool skimmer while me and my kids are in the pool playing and swimming together. By doing this I can keep and eye on this device and if it does get hung up anywhere, I am easily able to help it along the way and go back to playing with my kids. If your pool is wrinkle free, then you could surely hook up Diver Dave and let him go for a few hours without worrying about it. I used Diver Dave today as a matter of fact as I got in the pool and it did fine. **UPDATE* - After changing out my pool liner for this summer and having a friend help me to make the bottom wrinkle free, the Diver Dave works great. I left it hooked up all night while I slept and the next morning the bottom was completely clean and algae free. Having a smooth and near wrinkle free bottom to your pool makes a huge difference.

Other Pool Vaccum Options- Try the Kreepy Krauler

Robokleen Pool Vaccum

Now if the Diver Dave Poole Vaccum or the Kreepy Krauler are not what you are looking for them try the RoboKleen. It has some different design features that make it unique. First, and perhaps best, it needs no big and bulky hoses to be attached to it. The only thing hooked up to is is a power cord. The RoboKleen has a bag built into it that captures all the leaves and debris. This looks like it could be a good thing. I am also thinking that the big wheels on this device would enable it to easily roll over creases in the pool liner on the bottom. I am uncertain as to how this device would go all over the pool when the wheels roll up to the sides. There must be something that makes it just start rolling back the other way and more than likely this will not be the exact same path that it took to get there. Check out the video below on the RoboKleen pool vaccum. It may be the one for you.

Update: We changed out our pool liner a few weeks ago. A good friend helped me and we got the liner spread out wrinkle free on the bottom. I ran Diver Dave all night and it worked great. The pool was free of algae on the bottom that had accumulated in the pool for the first time with the new liner. This is going to make having the Diver Dave pool cleaner definitely worth it for me. Especially, as the temperature gets hotter and hotter this summer. Diver Dave Rocks!
