Came well packaged and has easy to follow instructions. Inserting the Twister into the vacuum line was easy, even with a leaf collector in the line. The pool cleaner was getting caught on the steps and in the corners of a free-form shaped pool, but as soon as the Twister was put in-line, the cleaner would free itself within 10 minutes and resume moving around the pool. The pool has three oak trees looming over it, so leaves are a problem -- however, the leaves routinely pass through with no problems. Small berries and chunks do have a tendency to get alongside the paddlewheel in the Twister and will stop the action, so it pays to check it daily to make sure it's clear and turning. Other than that, pool cleaning is no longer the constant struggle to keep the automatic pool cleaner functioning. Highly recommend this product to anyone with a diaphragm type pool cleaner.Read full review

This device works for keeping your crawler from getting stuck in the corners of the poo. However, it has to be set up exactly as the instructions say and even then may require some tinkering. The weighting is critical as is the orientation of it. If it floats, it takes on air and will ruin your pump. If it's too heavy and sinks to the bottom of the pool, the friction will wear a hole in the plastic case. The internal parts are plastic and will eventually fail because of the chlorine in the pool water. Still, I've had two that lasted two years each - pretty good for anything that has to work in chlorinated water. What is disappointing is that there have been no upgrades or improvements in the product that I can see over several years. The problems are not new and have been mentioned in several reviews. Yet, it works and it's the only device available for this problem.Read full review

It's genius. This well engineered all-plastic accessory to your pool's cleaning system will do the trick, for maybe two years. If your cleaning system gets stuck in a corner, on the steps, or at the main drain, then this baby will stop all that nonsense. Its warranty is for one year but its plastic gearing in the harsh environment of highly "chlorinized" pool water will eventually give way in the form of chunks settling inside its plastic casing. Your indicator will be the cleaning system back to its old stuck-in-the-corner/steps/drain self. Not bad though for alleviating two years of unsticking frustrations. I wish they sold an overhaul kit that would extend Twister's usefulness awhile longer....js

Really pleased with this item. Finally my baracuda reaches all directions. I was so fed up with the pool cleaner staying on the same path no matter how often I rotated the line. Now this is automated for me! Baracuda finds its way up every wall. Reduces my brushing time, too! Do yourself a favor and spend the extra ten bucks for the three year warranty. Parts feel a bit cheap, so I could be replacing it If it doesn't last the three years. According to the reviews, that could be a strong possibility. But I am currently very happy with this item's performance. No more frustration and the pool looks great!

My pool cleaner has been doing a poor job. It gets stuck for hours in one spot. For the first 2 days, after I connected the twister, it would go to the same spot & stop. I had to place a small bucket in that spot & now the twister helps a lot. My pool cleaner goes around the whole pool. It is a nice little gadget.
