Smarttrac Steering System<\/h3>\n
Without a doubt, all cleaners available on the market have patented technology that helps run its operations. As for the Pentair GW9500 Pool Cleaner, I was pleased with its Smarttrac programmed steering system. The system offers an overly intricate and flawless functionality. It minimizes human interaction or help with pool cleaning while maximizing the pool cleaner\u2019s efficiency. This technology makes it possible for the cleaner to roll over tight corners, ladders, and obstacles in the pool.<\/p>\n
Efficient Bristle Brush Mechanism<\/h3>\n
Most pool cleaners available on the market use wheels or rollers to move across the pool. However, the Pentair GW9500 Pool Cleaner has a different moving mechanism. A bristle drive smoothly propels it. This unique moving mechanism, coupled with the unit\u2019s oscillating vortex design, allows for an effective and thorough pool cleaning at both the floor and sides.<\/p>\n
The Pentair GW9500 Pool Cleaner is designed to clean the entire pool floor, from the deep to the shallow end. However, you should adjust the pump\u2019s flow rate accordingly. If the flow rate is quite low or your pool filter is full, the cleaner becomes less mobile and might have trouble climbing the walls or getting stuck at the deep end.<\/p>\n
I also liked the handle telepole adapter that comes in handy in guiding the Pentair GW9500 Pool Cleaner. The adapter is very useful for those who want to speed up the pool cleaning process. With it, you can move the cleaner several times over stubborn spots or through areas where the cleaner missed some spots.<\/p>\n
Suits Every Pool Type<\/h3>\n
For various reasons, we all have different types of swimming pools. While yours could be free-form, mine could be kidney-shaped or angular. Despite its importance in choosing a basic pool cleaner, most people often ignore their pool type when looking for the best pool cleaner. Fortunately, you don\u2019t have to consider this anymore as the Pentair GW9500 Pool Cleaner can clean all pool shapes. The unit climbs all the walls, provided there is no round transition from the bottom of the pool to the sides.<\/p>\n
Another amazing feature is that it cleans all types of pool surfaces. Be it fiberglass, vinyl, or gunite, the unit is equally suitable for all surfaces.<\/p>\n
Perfect Shape<\/h3>\n
The Pentair GW9500 Pool Cleaner comes with a rectangular 15-inch cleaning path that cleans the pool surface in the quickest way possible. This brilliant design provides for a thorough cleaning with only one moving part that lasts for several years.<\/p>\n
How the Pentair GW9500 Pool Cleaner Works<\/h2>\n
As with other Pentair suction pool cleaners, the Pentair GW9500 Pool Cleaner requires minimal assembly. The following are included in the delivery package;<\/p>\n

Once fully assembled, the Pentair GW9500 Pool Cleaner scrubs and vacuums simultaneously. Worth noting is its impressive ability to scrub away algae from pool water. The unit\u2019s suction power is significant enough to swallow twigs and leaves while cleaning grit, sand, and debris effectively.<\/p>\n
Despite taking some time to get around the pool, the Pentair GW9500 Pool Cleaner travels across the slopes and shapes in your pool bottom, creating a 15-inch wide debris-free path. The cleaner took more time in the deep end than the shallow end, but the result was impressive.<\/p>\n
NOTE: To avoid frustrations after purchase, note that the pressure range at which the cleaner performs excellently is small. Unlike other units I had before, my Pentair GW9500 Pool Cleaner appeared very sensitive, even to slight pressure changes. A small disruption of pressure affected the speed of the oscillator. With this, the cleaner could not climb the walls well or rise above the waterline.<\/p>\n

What Other People Say About Pentair GW9500 Pool Cleaner<\/h2>\n
While it can\u2019t be compared to an automatic pool cleaner, the Pentair GW9500 Pool Cleaner does an exemplary job in cleaning a swimming pool. Most users liked the fact that the unit lasts long, simple to install and maintain. The cleaner also produced minimal noise, as its minimal noise comes from the oscillator\u2019s back and forth movements. The only slight issue with this unit is that it lacked a footpad.<\/p>\n
Final Thoughts<\/h2>\n
Having used the Pentair GW9500 Pool Cleaner for some cleaning sessions, I am convinced it is a well-designed and powerful suction cleaner that cleans and scrubs reliably. Despite its slow cleaning process, it is a simplistic design and an economical choice during purchase and undertaking maintenance.<\/p>\n
The bristle-drive, which cleans even the toughest dirt and debris, programmed steering for navigation, adjustable regulator valve, and ease of assembly, are among the few unbeatable features of this unit. Provided you adjust the water pressure correctly, you will find the Pentair GW9500 Pool Cleaner a worthwhile purchase.<\/p>\n\n
