Wall Climbing Showed Cleaner Limits
Certain parts of the pool made the Polaris cleaner work harder than others. Walls, the waterline, curved sections, and transitions near the steps showed whether the movement stayed consistent or became repetitive. I paid less attention to the open floor because that area was easy. Describing where the cleaner struggled or moved smoothly gives a different picture from debris pickup, storage, or setup adjustments.

Corners and curved sections tell me more about cleaner navigation than the open middle of the pool because those areas expose repeated paths quickly. I watch the wall approach, the waterline, step transitions, and whether the unit returns to the same difficult section too often. Open-floor movement becomes a baseline rather than the main test. In that route map I tag Polaris Pool inside the notes for navigation consistency, not debris capacity or hose setup. The strongest comparison comes from seeing whether several cycles produce a broader path or repeat the same pattern.
