Polaris or Paramount?--which keeps your pool cleaner with less hassle?

[induce]

One stupid question:

How does the in-floor system handle leaves?
we had a Polaris 280 last time (loved it) and we are building a new pool and the builder is now installing the Paramount in-floor as standard equipment. Decision time.
thanks for input.

No, it is not a bad question. Unfortunately I don't have a solid answer. I have a solid cover so most of my debris is smaller tree needles and particles. Most of my larger debris (which I would categorize the leave issue) would end up in my strainer basket. I know some Paramount systems come with an optional 'debris removal' canister but I do not have one and can't say how it works. Check out the below link, they have some graphics and details.
