The main issue is that pollen and bugs accumulate at the surface. This skimmer completely solved my issues.Some Notes (My experience):1) Go at least 2 hose section minimum (about 7-8 ft) away from your existing skimmer... if not it will get dragged down or tilt.1) You might have to cut one of the hose section on your robot hose line since the male part of the hose (on mine) was not big enough to fit on the skimmer (my problem... maybe not yours)2) Use the little test "jig"/included, to calibrate the water flow (Works great)3) I had to adjust my filter valve to increase the flow since this device requires a little more suction because it taps on your vacuum line... Took me a couple days to find the "perfect" positioning on my pool filter valve. (Too much you will hear a suction air vortex... too little your robot might go too slow or else) ### ⭐⭐ 2.0 out of 5 stars No better! Would not buy again *by I***C on Reviewed in the United States on April 15, 2018* Difficult to set suction at effective level. Intermittent effectiveness. Debris spends a lot of time circling the vortex before heading out into the pool again! I have had my pool guy try to set it. No better! Would not buy again. ### ⭐ 1.0 out of 5 stars Not effective 99% of the time. *by G***H on Reviewed in the United States on October 10, 2017* I tried out this skimmer for an entire season with lots of tweaks and experimentation before I rated it. I am now very confident to say this product was a big disappointment. I have an older pool with no side port, so I wanted to use this in tandem with my automatic pool cleaner from my skimmer port. If the skimmer was sitting absolutely flat in the water, perfectly still, with the exact amount of flow rate, it might function somewhat...but as we all know, perfect conditions never occur in the real world. For example: if there was any torque in the line at all from the cleaner, the unit will tip slightly and no longer skim the surface. I am an engineer and good at troubleshooting, and I couldn't make it work effectively 99% of the time. I cannot recommend it. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/37421782-oai-gator-autoskim-automatic-pool-cleaner-skimmer-and-clarifier-suction](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/37421782-oai-gator-autoskim-automatic-pool-cleaner-skimmer-and-clarifier-suction) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-06-05*
