Review: Works great - This is a good product. We have a large in ground hot tub that doesn’t include a built in skimmer. This product is the only reasonable way we’ve found to skim the surface. We just connect it to the vacuum pipe and let it do its thing. Those who say it is loud or sucks air just aren’t using it right. As long as you balance the suction, it works perfectly. Review: Cheaply made and no customer service - The idea is good, bit it is made with cheap low quality parts. for starters, the hose gets brittle within a few months. I think it is made out of nylon which doesn't do good under a lot of direct sunlight (try leaving a grocery store plastic bag in the sun and see how long it takes for it to start de coloring) . The floats break off eventually. The company tries to nickle and dime you buying low quality replacement parts. I contacted customer service one time and was ignored, so I started 3d printing my own floats. A friend of mine gave some hose that works perfect with it, and with the parts I built I have kept it running for a while. I still use it because It does a pretty good job at keeping my pool's surface clean, but the only part I still use is the acrylic base. Everything else I've made my own, otherwise by now I would've spent three times its original cost in replacement parts. ## Features - Not for large leaves - Removes all particles & debris & smaller than 1” from pool surface without the use of chemicals - Clarifies your pool - Automatically moves in parallel with your bottom vacuum cleaner reaching where no other device can, covering your entire pool surface - Whirlpool suction power removes all particles and debris BEFORE they mix or reach the bottom of the pool - Compatibility – this add-on device adapts to COMPATIBLE bottom vacuum cleaner in any pool on the market such as: Barracuda G3, Zodiac MX8, X7, T3, TR2D, and T5, as well as Polaris ATLAS, ATLAS XT, and MAXX.

Can you attach this directly to the skimmer?** A: This should work with most any vacuum as well. As long as it is a standard hose it will connect to any vac and to the skimmer as well. To be clear, any suction powered vac. Not electric vacs **Q: Does it work with The PoolCleaner?** A: Yes we do have many SkimmerMotion attached to The PoolCleaner.\Latest model does have a rubber T-Joint so it connecte easy to the Pool cleaners **Q: Does it work with Hayward 500 Aqua Bug** A: It should work. The skimmer has a T that connects to the Hayward device and so you slip the intake hose over the T. The Aquabug is similar to the Hayward Poolvac XL. **Q: Does this work with dolphin cleaner?** A: Dolphin cleaner is an electric pool cleaner.SkimmerMotion will not work with any Electric pool Cleaner.SkimmerMotion is designed for vacum pool cleaner.Thanks for asking. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works great *by C***R on March 27, 2026* This is a good product. We have a large in ground hot tub that doesn’t include a built in skimmer. This product is the only reasonable way we’ve found to skim the surface. We just connect it to the vacuum pipe and let it do its thing. Those who say it is loud or sucks air just aren’t using it right. As long as you balance the suction, it works perfectly. ### ⭐ Cheaply made and no customer service *by M***D on June 11, 2023* The idea is good, bit it is made with cheap low quality parts. for starters, the hose gets brittle within a few months. I think it is made out of nylon which doesn't do good under a lot of direct sunlight (try leaving a grocery store plastic bag in the sun and see how long it takes for it to start de coloring) . The floats break off eventually. The company tries to nickle and dime you buying low quality replacement parts. I contacted customer service one time and was ignored, so I started 3d printing my own floats. A friend of mine gave some hose that works perfect with it, and with the parts I built I have kept it running for a while. I still use it because It does a pretty good job at keeping my pool's surface clean, but the only part I still use is the acrylic base. Everything else I've made my own, otherwise by now I would've spent three times its original cost in replacement parts. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Awesome product! *by J***B on June 26, 2015* Its a very simple and basic product but works so well. In combination with my barracuda vacuum my pool has never been cleaner. Other than heavy winds or right after mowing the yard I don't need to skim the pool by hand anymore! It is so nice to be able to just jump in for a few minutes after work rather than spend 10-15 min skimming first. Update 5yrs later June 2020 After 5 yrs I finally need to replace this item. The plastic T broke and the hose gave out, I’ve trimmed the hose multiple times over the last 5 yrs due to tears in the hose. I also had problems like others with the blue triangle things coming off, nothing a little superglue won’t solve. IMO nothing in fl sitting in water and direct sunlight for 12+hrs a day is going to last much more than a year without issues, it just is what it is. I still think this item is worth the money as it works pretty well for me but it is not going to last forever and will need some fixes to keep it going. I would like to see a replacement hose and the plastic T available for purchase separately. FYI my local pinch a penny sells this item for $70! ## Frequently Bought Together - SkimmerMotion Original - The Automatic Pool Surface Cleaner - Clarifier Pool Skimmer - Suction Skimmer for Pools - SkimmerMotion Cap Plug for Direct Connection to The Suction Port - The Automatic Pool Skimmer - Connect Direct in Your Pool Vacuum line --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ph/products/2359145-original-the-automatic-pool-surface-cleaner-clarifier-pool-skimmer-suction](https://www.desertcart.ph/products/2359145-original-the-automatic-pool-surface-cleaner-clarifier-pool-skimmer-suction) --- *Product available on Desertcart Philippines* *Store origin: PH* *Last updated: 2026-05-26*
