[edit]This picture doesn't really actually show the robot. Could someone get a better one? 209.74.4.2 15:10, 2 June 2006 (UTC)

I added a video demonstration of the robot. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.51.144.55 (talk) 21:53, 26 May 2011 (UTC)

[edit]This bit: """ The first suction-side pool cleaner was invented by Roy B. Everson of Chicago in 1937, which he entitled "Swimming Pool Cleaner".[4]
Nineteen years later, the first suction-side pool cleaner was the work of Joseph Eistrup of San Mateo, California, who called his invention simply "Pool Cleaner" """ Does not make sense. How can the first suction-side be invented 19 years after the (original) first? Upon reading the patent of Eistrup for "pool cleaner", it is not evident that it was in fact a suction side cleaner? I might be wrong on this though --Chris Swart (talk) 11:00, 22 August 2014 (UTC)

- bizarre attempts to claim an independent South African invention - more than 60 years late. Is this some residual apartheid propaganda? 196.24.216.2 (talk) 11:28, 22 January 2025 (UTC)
