Waldo

Waldo is the human-friendly name we gave our Polaris. "Oh, my god" you may think - "these curmudgeons are really out of  control."

With pride, I agree. Regrettably, I can't afford a real Polaris nor the submarine it comes with.  Waldo is a pool cleaner.  Now, don't get your hopes up - he isn't the guy with the 6-pack abs that I would happily shoot if it didn't mean going to  jail.

Waldo wanders about on his own, sucking up stuff you never, ever wanted to know were in your pool. Sadly, he puts them in his storage bag. The very bag I have to empty.  So there is a real downside to his efficiency. And a rather stinky one.

But, boy, is our pool clean. And a million people didn't have to die to make it happen!
