Ensuring that your pool water always has the right balance of chemicals is important for hygiene and safety. Therefore, having a testing kit on hand is very useful. This one in particular tests for 6 parameters: pH, total and free chlorine, total alkalinity, cyanuric acid, and total hardness, all at the same time.

This pool cleaning kit from Migaven is perfect if you are looking for a complete set of tools to keep your water clear. It comes with a vacuum head, a skimmer net, a pole that can be attached to either the vacuum or net, a mesh bag to collect dirt, and several connectors. 

The vacuum is attached to your pool's system to filter impurities, which then collect in the mesh bag. Vacuuming should be done once a week, while the net is useful for fishing out floating debris. You can use this kit to clean not just swimming pools, but ponds, hot tubs, and spas too.

If you like to take a more hands-on approach, this all-in-one pool cleaning kit from Kungfu Mall comes with a net, brush, scrubber pad, and even a pair of gloves to keep your fingers wrinkle-free! Use the lightweight skimmer regularly to scoop out rubbish such as insects and leaves. 

When you notice dirt or algae building up on the pool walls, the brush and scrubber pad will get them off and return them to their former glory. Since it's short and doesn't come with a pole, it's best for cleaning small pools, paddling pools, hot tubs, or even fish tanks.

Bestway's AquaClean™ Pool Cleaning Kit by is made for easy pool cleaning and maintenance. The kit is convenient and versatile, with a vacuum head, mesh skimmer, and support tools, including an adjustable 9 ft pole that can be attached to both the skimmer and vacuum head.

Hook the vacuum up to your pool filter at least once a week. In between vacuum days, the skimmer is great for clearing out floating debris. This kit is compatible with above-ground pools with a maximum diameter of 6.10 m or 20 ft. It is, however, a little more expensive than most, which is something to consider for those on a budget.

Made of premium ABS plastic material and heavy-duty aluminum, you can count on this vacuum kit from FENRIR to stand the test of time. No pump or filter is necessary to run it as it attaches to your garden hose, sucking away dirt such as sludge or other unwanted sediments. 

As you sweep it across the floor, the vacuum bristles work to loosen up stubborn dirt so that it can be cleared away. On the downside, some users have claimed that the pole is too short. But if you have a longer, compatible alternative on-hand, this vacuum is a great choice.

For those who are on a budget and don't know where to begin, a pool skimmer is a good place to start. Made of aluminum, the pole is designed to not break under heavy loads while still being lightweight to handle.

As it has a fine mesh netting, the skimmer can scoop out even the most minuscule debris such as pollen, insects, or small leaves, which can be a problem if you have plants beside the pool. To help you reach around the pool, the skimmer comes with an adjustable telescopic handle for convenience. However, some users have pointed out that the pole can be rather flimsy. 

This powerful jet vacuum from Suds will leave your pool water as clear as day. No special equipment is required to operate it as you only need a garden hose. It also comes with a long pole to help you reach the bottom of the pool with ease.

Once connected, the water pressure creates a vacuum in the head which sucks up debris as you sweep it across the pool floor. Rubbish is collected in the mesh bag, while clean, filtered water goes back into the pool. However, according to several Amazon reviews, the hose can be difficult to connect.
