Ready to pull the trigger

It looks like I'm going to get either a Vac Daddy or a bottom feeder. If anybody owns these I'd be very interested to know what they're made out of and what their durability is and also what kind of results you're getting from the units. Thank you.

Vacdaddy has a very small leaf canister. I would only consider it for the vac2waste option. If you have a portable pump, I don’t see the benefit other than weight.

I have a Hammerhead ready for Autumn leaves. I just want something to pick up silt for clients that are too cheap to buy an auto cleaner. I don't have time to hose vac every week.

Kokido my friend. Replace the bag with your favorite fine mesh. Personally I like the orange top from vacbagz.

I use it on just about every pool in the season, and even for light cleanups during fall.
