Scuba S1

I bought the Aiper Seagull Pro ( 2023 Upgrade ) in July 2023 and loved it. However, it was recalled because the battery could catch fire and the replacement was the Scuba S1 which is awful. That is why I am on here searching and it seems I am not the only one having this problem.

I have a new Aiper Scuba S1 I’m comparing head to head with a dolphin nautilus cc plus (2023) in a 27’x15’ fiberglass pool. I like that the Aiper is cordless so it doesn’t get the Betta tangled, and there’s no blue cord tripping hazard snaking down the patio steps. The fine mesh filters seem to be b

I I recently tested an Aiper cordless pool robot after using our Medtronic dolphin for several years. I don’t know if the Aiper was defective, but the cleaning performance was abysmal compared to the dolphin. The runtime on the batteries was also weak. Again, I’m not sure if it is defective, but I’m

Buyer Beware – My Experience with the Aiper Scuba 1 Warranty I purchased an Aiper Scuba 1 robotic pool cleaner in May 2025 after researching cordless pool cleaners. The cleaner performed well during its first season, and I was reassured by the advertised two-year warranty. Almost exactly one year la

I am on my 2nd season with the Scuba S1 Pro. I loved it at first. But this season has made me hate it. It gets stuck constantly in one section of the pool and never cleans everything. I thought it was because cordless robots just stuck. But recently it stopped charging. I put the details into my Gem

Highly recommend the Beatbot Sora 30 (or 70 if you want skimming). Just got it to replace my Aiper Scuba S1. Budget oriented robot with mid to high-end features. I've ran it 3 times so far and it does way better on my sport bottom pool than the Aiper did.

Hey, I have an Aiper Scuba S1. Although I thought I liked it, I realize that manually vacuuming is better all the time… So I’d invest in a cordless vacuum that accepts a telescoping pole since it’s cheaper, faster, and more effective.

New pool owner and I loved my robots -- (skimmer and S1), problem was not how they worked but after two warranty claims and 1 recall the replacement unit died and got zero support. Would recommend something other than aiper.

I have found Aiper pool products to be unreliable. In September (2025) I purchased 3 of their devices; the Aiper Surfer S2 solar skimmer ($370), the HydroComm Series ($280) solar thermometer/water testerWiFi device and the Scuba X1 Pro Max ($1,600). The HydroComm failed after a couple of months. Eve

My first robot was the Maytronics Nautilus CC plus. Lasted two years and would have been fairly easy to fix. It worked great, picked up loads of debris and climbed walls like nobody's business. I decided to "upgrade" to the Nautilus CC Supreme. Didn't climb walls well at all and died after a year. I
