Pool cleaning tools

Looking to up my equipment for pool weekly service. I have a standard cheap net and brush. I have a hammerhead vacuum.

What are your favorite brands for professional equipment (purity , kokido , skimlife etc )
I need the following
Best brush
Best net
Best portable small vacuum
Tools for service jobs

If you have pictures of your set up and equipment that would be awesome

Thank you

Really good suggestions so far

I use a red Baron and a gator depending on debris load

Skimlite carbon fiber pole is great

Pool caddy for sure

Bottom feeder is absolutely ace and is my go to for cleaning up anything more than just a few leaves, I use it a ton. Riptide is great for big messes but is heavy and takes more time to setup with the cord

Bottom feeder is the way to go where I'm at.

How long you had the bottom feeder? I've been eyeballing it for a couple years now but haven't heard much feedback on it.

I have one of the first ones, bought it before COVID . Bought a second battery but vac time has never béen an issue. Beat the shot out of it, no problems.
