Is it smart to buy a pool robot before swim season actually starts?
I have a similar size pool, about 16k gallons fiberglass. I picked up the aiper scuba s1 last season and honestly it handled the floor and walls better than I expected. I usually run it 2-3 times a week during peak summer and it keeps up with pollen and the fine sand we get after storms.

Pool season's here and my back hurts… pool robot worth it?
I'm based in Brisbane so we've been swimming for a month or so now. I bought an Aiper Scuba S1 Pro. Absolutely love it so far. I particularly like the eco mode so you put it in for a clean on a Monday evening, it then stays in the pool and also cleans wed and Fri nights. People on this sub will try

Pool robot that actually scrubs the walls and scum line?
I have an Aiper Scuba S1. I bought it on a big sale and had zero expectations of it working well. Pleasantly surprised. It has multi-mode cleaning capabilities, a whole pool and wall option or just walls or just floors option. It climbs and sticks on the water line for a few seconds while cleaning.

Are Aiper vacuums any good?
I have had the Aiper Scuba S1 for a a year and half now and absolutely love it. His name is Robbie and my 2 year old loves asking for Robbie. He takes an hour or so to fully charge and runs for about 4hrs. My pool is smallish, 12k gallons and cleans the bottom without leaving a speck of debris. You

Anyone use a robot pool cleaner that you like?
I have an Aiper Scuba S1 and Surfer S2. Been pretty happy with both. Scuba can do a pull pass of my 25000gal pool on one charge with walls and floors. Only problem I've had is that I have and odd pool that grades very suddenly to 10 ft in the deep end, and because of that, I can't put it into floor

What is this that collects at the bottom of my pool?
Aiper Scuba S1. It was about $400. Easy to use. Climbs the sides. Has a feature to leave it in the pool for a week and it'll vacuum the bottom 3 times in that week. We don't use that too much because it isn't necessary in our pool but it's handy over a busy weekend.

Automatic pool cleaners
i am on my third one of these. i pretty much run them every day in season so i don't mind a 2 year life. the prior 2 were $300-ish. i got an aiper scuba s1 for $600 this time. it definitely works better. i like that there is a program mode where you can toss it in and have it run every day or every

Just got some basic automation set up
Nice setup. I've had an aiper pool robot for almost a year now and overall it's been great for both automation and cleaning. The only real downside for me is charging, it's not difficult, just easy to forget. I've been experimenting with tying it into Home Assistant, even if it's just reminders inst

Aiper robots any good
I have the Surfer S1 and the Scuba S1, both about 1.5 years old. Scuba S1 has been great. The hinge pin on one side of the basket recently broke, but it still closes securely. It does a great job of cleaning our in ground pool, so no complaints so far. The Surfer S1 is a different story. One motor f

Robot vac and skimmer recs?
I run an aiper surfer s2 skimmer + scuba s1 setup. The skimmer is solar, so it just stays out there basically 24/7 and I rarely have to mess with charging it. The cleaner takes care of the walls and floor, and the silicone brushes are liner-safe, so no worries about scratching anything.
