This robotic skimmer is a good concept but Aiper falls short with this product. I love their N1 pool vacuum but this guy has sensors that keep it from getting close to the walls, where most leaves are the surface gather. So it brushes past them and often has leaves trailing it in its wake. It also has so little power that you can't run it while your pool's built-in skimmer is on because it will get sucked into and block your skimmer. The solar power feature is cool but the unit turns on unexpectedly while it's charging in the sunshine on the pool deck thereby depleting its power. It's also relatively difficult to unlatch the top to dump the leaf basket, which also has a terrible upside-down design that makes it inconvenient to use. It also has a nearly worthless app. Aiper needs to go back to the drawing board on this one. Photo shows this one as I'm preparing it for return.

We live in a heavily wooded area and are having to get leaves of the pool frequently. We had heard people taking about skimmer robots and how they loved them. We decided to give this one a try. It took a little bit to learn how to navigate the robot to where you want it to go, but now that I have the hang of it I’m loving it. Just make sure to connect to Bluetooth before setting in the pool as it takes a bit to connect after it’s running. If you choose to not connect to Bluetooth and just let it run, the skimmer robot runs without any problem. I am glad to have this as a tool to keep the pool clean. Come fall when the leaves start falling we may be able to keep the pool open longer with the robot helping keep it clean.

Very nice product. Works perfectly for getting all the gas trimmings and bugs that like to float. Also runs very quietly so that’s a plus

This pool skimmer is exactly what I needed. I have leaves and tree debris that falls in my pool and this skimmer gets it all. My pool is finally clean. It does a great job and I love the solar charging! Also this design is very sleek and looks very modern. I highly recommend this product and my neighbor just bought one too.

Overall OK but could've been better. Need to wither add sensors underwater so it doesn't crash into infinity walls, or have it reverse once it's stuck for more than 5 seconds. Mine was just pushing against the infinity wall for like 30 minutes, so had to return it.

Battery life leaves a bit to be desired, but has made process of opening pool very easy, especially not having a lot of time to skim

This item is incredible! Works perfectly and so easy to use. Set it and forget it!

I've had this for 3 days. So far, there haven't been major problems I couldnt handle. First, I let it charge using the DC charger like the instructions said. However, I wanted to know how long it would take to fully charge the unit that way, but that information wasn't included in the instructions. I let it charge overnight, so it wasnt a big problem. Second, when I got it into the pool, I had difficulty getting it to turn on. What the instructions don't tell you is that you have to press the on/off button until it beeps, then you press the light button to get it to start. I was told by the Aiper rep that the lag time is so the user has time to put it into the pool after the on button is pushed, but that information was never included in the instructions. Also, it makes no sense to give a person time to put it into the pool, but the user still has to push the light button when it's in the water to get it to start. Another user said it will run when it isnt in the water, but the bottom line is, more precise instructions are needed. I think the way to keep it from turning on out of the water is to make sure the on/off button is fully depressed before leaving it outside the pool. I am very happy with the way it cleans. It took one hour to fully clean my 30X15 ft. oval pool. The basket was completely full of leaves. The only problem is that when you turn it off, you need to remove it from the pool. Leaves will float out of the basket if its not moving. I am also having to experiment with different ways to take it out of the pool, because I experience a bit of leaf backwash. But it's nothing compared to the amount of work this unit actually does in cleaning the leaves due to my neighbor's 70 foot pecan trees!

Purchased it in July of 2024 now October 2024 not charging any more.
