It does not make zero turns, so it doest pick all debris - Also the suction is just okay- and the app is not easy to setup. Going back to the coded dolphin natius. Same price better results.

I have a freeform concrete Pebbletech pool with a lot of rounded edges and I have spent the last month and a half trying out various cordless pool vacuum robots. After my corded Polaris Robot bit the dust after 4 years, I wanted to try something without a cord since the layout of my pool makes a corded option cumbersome. I started out with the Dreame Z1, which I actually really liked. The remote control was a cool way to be able to operate it while under water since WiFi doesn’t’ work underwater (for any robot). Unfortunately, it kept getting stuck on my raised intakes in the deep end. It was unable to work itself free and just was not going to be an option for my style of pool. The pattern and cleaning power worked great and with some design tweaks along the bottom of this robot, I think it would be a strong contender! After returning the Dreame, I purchased the Beatbot Aquasense 2. After the first run I knew that I was not going to keep it. It left a lot of debris behind, missed a lot of spots, and just did not perform well in my pool. I then purchased the Aiper Scuba N1 from Best Buy. I ran it the first time with the high density filter attachment and couldn’t believe the sand and debris that it sucked up! It didn’t get hung up on the pool drains for more than a few seconds and, though doesn’t follow any clear pattern while cleaning, seemed to do a GREAT job cleaning my pool. I’ve seen several positive reviews online and was pleased with this purchase. So I thought, if the N1 (sister to the S1) is this good, the X1 must be even better! So, I ordered the Aiper Scuba X1 directly from Aiper’s website since it was the best deal. It is significantly heavier than the S1, but with the dual brushes and more technology this didn’t bother me. I dropped it in the pool and off it went climbing the wall and seemingly doing a good job. It also has the fine filter option and I ran it on that. After observing the inaugural run of the X1, my excitement turned to disappointment as I watched it get stuck on the pool light, the pool drains and the edges of my curved steps and other curved edges. I was pleased to see that it would eventually work itself free from all of these, it would take a long time. It took almost 3 minutes to work its way loose from the drains and never was able to conquer climbing over the pool light. It last right at 2 hours, which is actually less than the N1 does in my pool. I could see this causing unnecessary wear and tear on the robot AND the edges of my pool and drains. In the first run of the X1, I did it in “S-shaped” cleaning path and it would get stuck in a “loop” going over the same spots over and over and then when it finally got out of it it would miss wide swaths of ground. It the second run I did the “Adaptive Path” which is more of a random cleaning, which did better, but still got stuck on drains and ledges for extended amounts of time. Also, the basket is way to porous without the fine filter on it. I reached out to Aiper and they were very responsive. I gave them all of the information that they requested and at the end of the day I decided that this robot was not ideal for my pool, though for a rectangle shaped pool, I think that it would be a great option! I have landed on keeping the N1 (aka S1) as it does a great job and doesn’t get stuck on the drains and does a great job for my pool shape. In a couple of years, I will be anxious to see how they continue to progress, but for now, I highly recommend the Scuba N1 or S1, especially at their price point!

This robotic vacuum has performed very well. It requires minimal review to understand its operation. It is also v ery efficient!

Best pool vacuum on the market! Long battery life and cleans efficiently

The main goal when buying it was to clean all the dust and small debris at the bottom of the pool. It does so brilliantly. I truly recommend it.

So disappointed. Wouldn't climb my walls at all. Bought the Mova pool robot and it was 10 times better.

Trees and bushes drop small leaves in the pool all summer. Would never vacuum everyday until now. Pool looks beautiful everyday.

Excellent product at a great value. I love not dealing with cords.

One of the best pool cleaners in the market. Buy it!

Just got it and it picked up everything at the bottom of my pool

Best pool vacuum ever would definitely recommend this

It’s a wonderful equipment to have and wifi system.

Very happy with this little pool robot!! Picks up all debris. Does a good job climbing the walls and we have pebble. Love it! Keeping our pool clean...

It doesn’t do a very good job of getting the leafs off the bottom of the pool. Also, when it dies, it doesn’t die in the spot you put it in. So if you don’t have the hook handy and it goes into the deep end you’re going for a swim. I don’t think this is a great product and I would not recommend.

This pool cleaner was a disappointment. It failed to clean the pool properly, even after multiple attempts. It spent most of its time loitering in the deep end without covering other areas, and then the battery would die before the job was done. For the price, the performance is simply not worth it. Therefore, I returned it.

Only 1 filter, not as effective on the floor as I would like. The walls freT

Hawaii buyers beware: Aiper will not ship warranty replacements to Hawaii, and Best Buy has not assisted. Purchased October 2025 and it stopped working in March 2026.
