POOL BLASTER Centennial Cordless Pool Vacuum w/Pole Set - XL Debris Capacity & Advanced Filtration, Handheld Rechargeable Pool Cleaner for Sand, Silt & Leaves in Inground & Above Ground Pool

The POOL BLASTER Centennial model is excellent as a substitute for the traditional or more modern robotic pool vacuums. It is powerful enough to suck up sand and small gravel grains from the bottom of our pool-from both the 6 foot deep end as well as from the sitting area. A major wind storm that struck Las Vegas a few days ago blew up to an inch (in some areas) of fine and course sand and even some larger gravel pieces into our 16,000 gal inground pool. The pool was a disaster, to say the least . I decided to use the POOL BLASTER Water Tech Catfish Rechargeable, Battery-Powered, Swimming Pool Cleaner that we already own on this mess but it could not even begin to do the trick. So I ordered this centennial model and am very glad I did. I filled the debris cannister to the top 8 times and recharged the vacuum 6 times to completely clear all of the sand and gravel debris from the bottom of our pool! The vacuum battery when fully charged worked for approximately 40 minutes each time. Cleaning between use and charging the device was a breeze and took no more than 5 minutes each time. In this day of mediocrity (at best) in product performance, this vacuum stands out because it works exceptionally well and I highly recommend this vacuum to anyone who has a high maintenance inground pool.

Great addition to my pool equipment. We have a pool robot. But we have a lot of oak and pine trees on our property and large leaves get inside the pool regularly. This vacuum handles it all, whereas the robot gets clogged sometimes or simply can't pick them up. The charge lasts a long time.

This is a must have if you have a pool. I used to have to vacuum to waste to get the dirt out of my pool, came across this little vacuum and WOW, it does what it says it does. It vacuums up the dirt, sand, small Debrie like know bodies business. I wish I would of known about this little vac years ago, saves you alot of money in water bills, no reason to vacuum to waste anymore. It has about a 45 min charge usage, wish it was longer, but I can live with it. The price is right for this little vacuum, easy to use, easy to install, I also like that it can attach to your broom pole. Can't say enough about this little vacuum for $150. I bought a 5 pack of the filters, but you really don't need them for awhile, easy to clean and reuse.

I should have just bought this the first time. I initially saw it but decided to try and save $60 and go with a pool robot that had decent reviews. If you're on the edge like I was, just buy the dang thing. Being new to the pool world this season, we didn't want to purchase a vacuum that cost almost as much as the pool itself. Our pool is fairly close to a tree line and we kept getting a bunch of small seedlings in the pool along with pollen and leaves. Overall, this vacuum works very well. It got up all the decayed leaves that had accumulated while waiting on this to arrive. Not just the leaves, but the gross, slimy bits that had decayed and fallen to the pool floor. It got up the seedlings floating around and even smaller sticks. It has a pretty decent size canister but why I didn't give it a 5 star review is because the filter gets impacted with all the yuck before the canister itself fills. Fresh, larger leaves can also get stuck in the entry tube causing loss of suction. I had to empty the canister about 3 times (18ft round pool) to clear off the filter to allow for full suction to recommence. Granted, the pool was overdo for a cleaning as the other vacuum hadn't worked properly and we had to order and wait on this to arrive. Either way, the filter getting clogged does impact the suction power, and if you have quite a few leaves hanging around the pool floor, they'll likely get stuck trying to vacuum them all up. The pole, while plastic, worked just fine. It didn't bend or break while being used. Only down side, it doesn't reach to the center of the pool if standing outside it. Had to use our adjustable, aluminum pole for that. Charging was pretty quick, easy indication light to know when it's fully powered. If using regularly, 45 minutes should give plenty of time for cleaning an 18' or smaller pool. If a large storm comes through and blows a ton of leaves, pollen, and sticks into the bottom, you might need to recharge before getting your pool back to normal.

I needed something to get the sand and debris off the bottom of my inflatable spa. I wanted a quality product that would make the job quick, but also didn't want to spend a ton of money. This was exactly what I wanted! Easy to empty and clean the filter. Recharges quickly. Suction was better than I anticipated! The pole is made of plastic extensions and a bit flimsy. However, for my shallow depth and small area, it works adequately.

I purchased this pool blaster during Christmas time the previous year (2024) I was as able to use it one season (2025). We reopened our pool this month and it no longer functions. It was difficult to turn on last year and was intermittent… I should have returned it then. I have attempted online troubleshooting and left a message with the company. I am awaiting a reply. It should last longer than the six months I used it.

I'll start off by stating we have a robotic pool vac as our primary cleaner, so this was purchased to clean the attached spa, steps and corners the robo vac does not consistently reach. I've used this vac multiple times a week for almost three months and it has generally met my expectations. It is fairly easy to use and the battery lasts quite a while before a re-charge is needed. The suction is good and it pretty much picks up everything we need it to, even some large leaves. But there are a few small flaws. First, and most annoying, is that the canister does not always stay securely seated against the base. I find that when using the unit, if it contacts the side or step of the pool or if too much pressure is used when pushing it, the canister portion slips out from the small lip that holds it in place against the base. The problem this creates is the water in the canister, along with all the small debris, just flows right back out into the pool, negating a lot of the work just completed. It's most noticeable upon retrieval of the unit. So either you'll need to wait for the debris to settle back down and vacuum it again, or leave it for the next time. I've gotten into the habit of checking to make sure the canister and base are good before pulling it out and trying to force it back into place. But even so, some debris and water still flows out. I would say out of the ~20 times I've used it so far, I've NOT had this issue in about 5 of those. Some other reviews note a similar issue. Seems like Pool Blaster needs to re-engineer the unit with a larger lip in the base to keep the canister in place. . The second issue is the unit is too buoyant. I need to keep steady pressure on it to ensure the scrubber stays down. Couple that with the canister issue above and it is clear why that happens so often. The third issue is that some debris is easily stirred up by the shape of the vac head and forced away from it. So sometimes I need to move slowly or approach it at an odd angle. Using nets and the robo vac, I've never seen this before and I have no explanation for it. It's just annoying when some random leaf will blow away from the vac when the head is just about to go over it and suck it up. But in general it has no problem collecting most debris. From my experience, I cannot imagine using this as a primary unit to clean an entire pool unless it was quite small and circular. But as a supplementary cleaner, it works fairly well, but not perfect. If the canister seal issue were fixed it would be a solid 4 and if they addressed the buoyancy issue it would be a 5 star item.

Works well.

bueno

Pessima qualita’-il bastone si piega ed e’corto,l’apparecchio e’troppo leggero e si deve fare un enorme sforzo per tenerlo sott’acqua in fondo alla vasca perche’possa fare il suo lavoro.La plastica si piega!...soldi buttati via

Excellent product. Works really well. Easy to use, easy to clean. Holds a charge for a long time.

Arrived on time and it works well. Easy to clean
