Arrived by estimated delivery date. Easy to set up. Did not have a handle as others had noted in reviews on other websites. Drilled holes in 1" pvc and had a working handle. We have koi pond and big trees have grown up around it. This spring the bottom was covered with a couple of inches of leaves. The Leaf Eater worked as advertised. It quickly picked up a lot of leaves. I pretty short order we had the majority of the leaves off the bottom. We also have a pond vacuum but it will not pick up the leaves very well because the tube is a much smaller diameter than the Leaf Eater inlet. I do wish I had gotten a finer mesh bag as the muck flowed through the bag and made the water cloudy but that has filtered out. It should be a great tool for maintenance throughout the summer.
