AIPER Scuba S1 Cordless Robotic Cleaner, Smart Navigation for Inground Pools up to 1,600 Sq.ft, Wall and Waterline Cleaning Vacuum

I didn’t know pool cleaning could be this easy until I got the AIPER Scuba S1. This cordless robotic cleaner is a total win—it works great, is super intuitive to use, and has completely changed how we maintain our pool. Setup was a breeze. Just drop it in, press a button, and let it do its thing. It navigates the pool like it has a mind of its own, scrubbing the floor and walls with impressive precision. No cords to tangle, no complicated programming—just clean water and peace of mind. It’s surprisingly quiet, and watching it glide around is oddly satisfying. Plus, the battery life is solid, and it recharges quickly. I love that I don’t have to babysit it or wrestle with hoses anymore. Pros: Truly cordless—no hassle with cables Easy to operate right out of the box Cleans thoroughly and efficiently Saves time and effort Sleek design and quiet operation Cons: You may start bragging about your pool robot to guests 😄 If you’re tired of manual cleaning or unreliable pool vacuums, the Scuba S1 is absolutely worth it. It’s like having a tiny underwater butler who never complains!

I really debated with this machine, I have a concave 4 foot to 8 foot pool. It does kind of well. I thought about returning it. I just got rid of my screened in area, and now have fences up around my pool.( my cage broke and was in my pool!) this does kind of pick up the debris well, it’s kind of random where it goes. I’m getting more sand in my pool without the Screening. So, I decided to keep it so that some of the sand is not filtering through my system. I think it does a good enough job for the price paid, to keep it. It does run about four hours on one charge, which is phenomenal. But as I said, it’s random where it goes. I know my pool looks green but it’s not. I get the reflection off my neighbors trees. Update…. This stopped charging!!!! Complete waste of money!!!

Great little unit. It works very well to clean the bottom and sides of the pool. We're very happy with the battery life - about 3 hours - and how quickly it re-charges. It is very simple to put in and take out of the pool. The catch basket holds a good deal of leaves and debris and is very easy to empty. Small issues with the cleaning patterns not covering the entire bottom so we can see the clean vs dirty areas - but daily vacuum sessions eventually get all the areas. When it is in bottom only mode (not walls) it doesnt have the clinging power to get itself out of our steep-sided deep end. But it does an excellent job for the price.

I've been through a a few corded pool robots over the last 6 years. The never seen to last longer than ~2 years. I've tried a cordless before and it wasn't adequate for my pool (40,000 gallon, up to 8 feet deep). I decided to try again. Overall, I'm happy with the choice, but it leaves me wanting more and excited for the next generation of wireless pool cleaners. It is good value for the money relative to other products though. It does work well. Auction is good.It picks up all the dirt, leaves, algae, tiny pebbles that is passed over. It climbs walls effortlessly, but does not climb my stairs. When I use the full cycle (no wall) it does clean my entire pool bottom in one run, most of the time. Occasionally, it would miss a leave or two. In wall and floor setting, it usually misses a little more. The 3 45-minute cleaning setting in a week is a nice feature, but each cycle is never enough to actually clean thoroughly. This leaves me pining for more settings. How about an 1:15, twice a week? EEtc. It cleans the attached hot tub (waterfalls to pool) easily.. I usually just use the 45 minute mode, drop it in, then use the rest of the battery on a full mode in the main pool. The filter basket is very easy to clean. Zero complaints there. Now where it loses a star and maybe should be two: getting it out of the pool. It's a major pain when it decides to stop or does in the far end of the deep side. I have a wall ledge on one side of my pool, it's not easy to walk to that side and use a 10 foot stick to fish it out while standing on a ledge. I opt for the 16 or 24 foot stick from across the entire pool... And to make it more challenging, the hole on the robot where the fish stick must attach in order to succeed: it's black, just like the rest of the robot. Why could the hole that you are trying to target from 20 feet away not be a more contrasting color? It's hard. To make matter worse: the pool robot is a very easily scratched gloss plastic. So every time you miss the hole with the stick, you put a new scratch on it. See my attached picture, the robot is covered in scratches. Other small complaints: It doesn't climb my stairs at all. I need to brush my three pool width stairs to to the bottom of the pool prior to vacuuming if I want that stuff vacuumed. The rubber plug that sticks into the charging port routinely comes unplugged while it's vacuuming. It's attached the unit, so no worries if it getting lost. Just hopefully, there is not water entering through the port that would cause the unit to prematurely fail. I may update if and when the unit eventually fails. I suspect it will last longer than one year and less than two years. I suggest considering purchasing an additional warranty if you are into those kind of things. Conclusion: Good for the money. Cleans well. Has some minor quarks. Fishing it out of the pool may be a deal breaker to some (but that applies to all wireless units - minus the poor choice of colors here).

In the 22 years since we built our in-ground pool we've gone through four pool cleaners. This one's our fifth and our first cordless cleaner and so far it's my favorite. It weighs just 26 pounds, so it's a breeze to pull it out of the water. Our last two cleaners were corded Dolphins and weighed about 33 pounds. Because of the hassle with the cord and the weight of the units I ended up just leaving them in the water most of the time which I'm sure shortened their lives. I'll admit I was underwhelmed at first with the new Aiper cleaner. It took three full cycles to completely clean the bottom of our 12,000 gallon pool, which didn't have much debris to begin with. I reached out to support and they suggested I update the firmware. I thought it was strange to need to update firmware on a brand new device, but it solved my problem. Bottom line: The Aiper cleaner runs all the way up past the waterline on the sides of the pool, it wanders onto the steps and swim benches, and by the time it shuts down the pool looks great!
