AIPER Cordless Robotic Pool Vacuum, Self-Parking Technology, Portable, Ideal for Above-Ground Flat Pool up to 40 Feet

This pool cleaner is a great tool to have. It saves time while slowly keeping the bottom of your pool clean. It’s completely cordless which is very convenient. It moves around on its own and parks itself neatly by a pool wall when the battery runs low. It even comes with a hook attachment for your pool pole to make retrieval easier. Cleaning-wise, it does a pretty good job on flat surfaces. It sucks up dirt, small debris, and leaves without issues. Keep in mind that this is designed to work on flat bottom pools only so if your pool isn’t perfectly flat, the robot will struggle to climb up any slopes. The cleaning path is a bit random so I've noticed that it will miss spots occasionally but overall, it keeps the pool floor tidy. The filter basket also fills up fast if there’s a lot of debris. You'll need to pull it out and empty it mid-cleaning if that's the case. Thankfully the filter is quite easy to remove and rinse. Runtime is pretty good and right around the advertised 90 minutes and it operates quietly. Build-wise, it feels well-designed. It’s lightweight, easy to carry, and even looks pretty cool. It also comes with spare parts and the instructions are clear. Overall, If you have a flat bottom pool, I would recommend this robot vacuum.

I purchased this in late March. Ive had nothing but trouble from this pool vacuum. I'm so fed up with it, I want to throw it against a wall and shatter it into 1000 pieces! Its constantly losing charge and not working for the entire time it claims it will. At most, I get 45 mins out of it. It doesn't pick up sand nor dead algae, just pushes it all around the pool. It barely picks up small leaves half the time. You can't reuse it in a very timely manner after using it because you have to wait for it to completely dry out b4 hooking it back up to its charger and waiting for it to recharge. Its difficult to open, clean out, then reassemble for the next use. I have a 24 foot round above ground pool and this thing is honestly absolutely useless! I rarely if ever leave a bad review, but this product deserves it. Do yourself a favor and purchase a pool vac at a higher price point that will do what it says it will. *EDIT; after posting my review, the seller (Aiper) reached out to me to make things right. They sent me a replacement vacuum the Scuba E1 for free. I'm delayed in updating my review because we wanted to use it for awhile and see how well it does. We have a 24 ft round above ground pool and this Scuba E1 is phenomenal! Pics in my review are for this machine (b4 it cleaned, during, and after). It is much stronger than the vacuum originally purchased, has a nice basket with a tight mesh so things don't escape. It absolutely runs its full 90 min time unlike the version we first purchased. It picks up the sand that is constantly in the bottom of the pool (we live in Florida) and any and all leaves from our many nearby trees, too. It works fast and complete. We are 100% more than satisfied with the Scuba E1. More than anything, we are blown away by the more than excellent communication from Aiper's customer service as well as their dedication to making sure we have a product we can be happy with. Thank you so much, Aiper! When we need to purchase again in the future, we will absolutely buy another Aiper.

While it may not suit larger or more complex pools, its convenience, portability, and quiet operation make it a valuable addition to pool maintenance routines.

UPDATE: The customer service reached out to me and resolved the issue very quickly. I would definitely buy from them again the new vacuum works amazing and we are completely satisfied. We purchased this in May in hopes of opening our pool but we had set backs. We opened our pool right after July 4th and I was so excited to finally not have to Manuel vacuum our pool this season but this thing hardly moves, hardly picks up anything, and dies very quickly. I’m so disappointed. I first thought I was doing something wrong so I have tried everyday doing things and nothing works.

So with spring finally beginning, our pool has thawed and there is no more ice, leaving a dirty floor to be seen within our pool. Figured this would be a great test for this little new cleaner, since my old one died at the end of the last summer. Quite the looker, this little vacuum comes with spare wheels and inserts as well as a set of brushes that you need to slot underneath it. The charger is included and of course, different from my older one. Entry holes to pick up trash, are quite smaller than my older model and I am worried some maple leaves for example, which can get quite big, may end up clogging it. Time will tell. So charged it up to 100% and dumped it in the pool to see what it could do. So everyone knows, my pool is an above ground 21 feet pool (round) with a slight incline as most pools have from the middle of it towards the edges. The description does not mention it, but the included instructions do mention, that this is not made for a pool with slopes, for example a inground pool with a deep end. You unit will get stuck at the bottom. I noticed that issue, with the little incline of my pool where going down towards the deeper end, unit will be fast. But going back up, it can hardly make it so ever slowly. Thus draining the battery quicker and not getting a full run i fear. The brushes, helped a little. But being again an above ground pool, with vinyl padded flooring, it is not perfectly even and thus not scraping evenly. I pulled it out twice within the run, to empty it out and was happy to find it had picked up quite a bit. So yes, a bit slow for my liking. But I can dump it in, do something else while it does its thing, and repeat the process when it is recharged.
