Kokido K905CBX Butterfly Deluxe Automatic Vac Swimming Pool Spa Vacuum Cleaner

This thing works fabulous and is cheap. I did find it on-line elsewhere for $89.00 and free shipping which would have saved me about $40.00. I had to spend some time getting it to work on my equipment (I had the Navigator by Hayward) and a side port that refused to come out. I bought an extender for the side port, another weight as it came with only one and I have an eight foot deep end, and I bought the Twister, love the Twister! The Butterfly is doing great. Oh, I had to change the direction of the pool jets too because the current kept pushing the hose so that it wouldn't clean a couple of areas. Check out, mrdgvb1 videoes on u-tube. He's helped me a lot! I just ask questions in his comments and he has always responded that night. I highly recommend this product and I think it works for above ground pools too, just check the specs.

Easy to assemble and works well. Had to cut a fun noodle and duck tape to the hose to help float it a little better.

Garbage, garbage, garbage! We had a Hayward creepycrawler for over 10 years. Had to replace shoes and flaps etc. The best. It finally broke beyond repair. Watched videos, researched, asked opinions for days. Finally purchased Kokido Butterfly. It "Flops" around on bottom randomly possibly cleaning where it lands. Looks like just "splotches" of clean vs not. Then, crawls up side and just stops and sucks. Has adjustment. Tried all settings. No difference. Told to try altering length of hose. No change. Uses a "Diaphragm" that looks like an adult sex toy insert. No problem if it actually worked. Tears after about 3 months and then what little Butterfly did is lost. Each replacement "Diaphragm" costs from $8 to $20 depending on where you get it. Not Amazon's fault. Just a horrid design and piece-of-junk-product. We paid $170 for better model. No difference. You get what you pay for. Now we have to wait until we can afford another creepcrawler. In the mean time, I have to vacuum manually AFTER I brush entire pool to loosen dirt.

None of these things last long. I was satisfied enough to buy another suction cleaner to replace my robotic cleaner that lasted 2 months.

Doesnt work well. Our pool is fairly large and the hose only reaches about half way. Then we have to go move it to the other end. It doesn't climb the walls at all, doesn't ever get to steps. When the hose gets tight it just stays in the same place for hours instead if traveling around that half of the pool. Would not buy this again

I ordered this because I just moved into a new house with a pool and there was no easy way to keep it clean. I had been using a hand vac (attached to a pole) for a while, but it took forever and I was getting sick of having to spend an hour every other day cleaning up leaves. So I went out on a limb and decided to try the Kokido Butterfly before I spent $500 on a different model. Boy am I happy with my decision. My pool is around 18 x 32 and 25,000 gallons and this cleaner makes it spotless in about 2 hours.It came with a few pressure valves and attachments that I ultimately didn't need to use. The instructions call for it to be attached where the debris goes directly into the pump/filter, but I really didn't want to send stuff straight to there so I used the old skimmer plate I had and attached the hose directly to it. So basically everything goes into my skimmer basket, which I can easily empty out when it's finished. My pool pump is 2 hp (so that might be why it works so well) and the cleaner covers the whole pool and does a very very good job. I'd highly recommend this if you are looking for a cheaper route to clean your pool!

I just cleaned my 18 x 33’ pool for the first time with this. Overall it was pretty easy to assemble and get going. It cleaned the entire pool except for the far end and a couple of small spots. After I added 2 hose sections from my old manual cleaner, it cleaned the far end, too. Fortunately, the hose ends were compatable.I’m very pleased overall. I would recommend this at the price. It comes with an extra diaphragm part so I’m thinking that is because it is the most likely part to fail. It is the only moving part and it pulses thousands of times each use.I used the old manual pole and head (with no vacuum) to wipe the few small missed spots.

Worked well for a couple of months. Then, weight tabs broke, bladder gave out, seals wore down, or split. After patching togeher this and that, eventually, the whole thing won't work
