You didn't mention your budget. If you're looking to spend 300 dollars or under, then from a service guy's point of view on effectiveness, cost, ease of repair, least things that go wrong with them, it's a Kreepy Krauly, hands down.
Sure Baracudda markets itself as having no moving parts, but the one part that does all the action also wears out on a yearly basis. If you ask me, it's also a moving part, so their literature is pretty misleading.
If you're budget allows spending over a grand, then the Polaris vac sweep 360 or 380 is most certainly the way to go. The only issue here is if your pool currently has a plumbing line going to the pool it can use. Without one, you'll have to go the over deck route, which then is a hose to trip over, lying on the deck. That's the only drawback.
These two cleaners are totally different in their collection and operation. The Kreepy uses suction side plumbing (debris to the pump basket and filter), the Polaris uses pressure side, with it's own booster pump and it's collection is a bag attached to the Polaris head.

I've seen several in action, personally I recommend the "Kreepy Krauly". It's a good, mid-priced ($400) pool cleaner that works off your pools pump. Keep in mind you will have to replace parts now and then so budget about $50+ yearly for that. Make sure your local pool supply shop carries parts for whatever model you decide on. You will need to brush the pool surface and perform some manual cleaning now and then but for the most part the cleaner will take care of everything. No difficult transition, 1. install cleaner, 2. fire pool guy. Here is a link comparing the major cleaners: http://www.poolcenter.com/cleaners_poolstor.htm
