If only they lasted forever. You could say that about most things in life, but when it comes to pool cleaners, just like the other things in life, if you look after it, it’ll last a healthy while!
So, what is a reasonable lifespan for the pool vacuum or cleaner? Well, around five years, but that depends!
First, care for it. The lifespan of a cleaner, and its components, can be extended with proper maintenance. Every season, pull the cleaner out and replace those parts even if they don’t appear to be bad. Those components can be the feet, wings, paws, rollers, or tires.
Second, you get what you pay for. A longer-lasting pool cleaner will, inevitably, cost more, but it’ll probably end up saving you money, as you won’t have to replace it so often.
