Aiper EcoSurfer M2 24/7 Solar-Powered Automatic Robotic Pool Skimmer with DebrisGuard™

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This pool skimmer is really nice. It was easy to download the app and set up. I turned it on and set it in the pool and let it run for about 2.5 hours. It skimmed everything off the top of the pool and was easy to remove the filter and wash It out. It is pretty quiet and didn’t get stuck once, it seemed to be able to reverse and back out of the wall. I did use the orange noodle provided to help it not get stuck in the hole for the pool filter. It is a bit pricey but if it can run and save your pool filter it’s a great buy!! Will keep using to test out the durability over time.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Got lucky it warmed up, I was worried about being able to get this in the pool! This one is SUPER nice and now I see why Aiper comes so highly recommended. This confirms we wasted our time trying to get by with midrange ones that quickly broke (hopefully this one lasts longer as well, I have hopes!), we do get a lot of small debris in our pool, so it can be tedious to clean and surface cleaning of the smaller stuff is definitely needed and I appreciate the fine filter basket. The trees aren’t too bad now, so we’ll see as summer continues to pick up. So far, the maintenance has been easy in terms of daily use, cleaning it out and making sure things stay cleared and clean takes a very minimal amount of time. This guy is QUIET too! I love that it’ll automatically recharge and while I didn’t think an app was a necessity before, I see why some people swear by them. No more thinking the pool is being cleaned for an hour, only to find the vacuum got stuck in the first few minutes! It seems to do pretty well with the wall climbing features, the obstacle avoidance is iffy, if we have our “hose vacuum” in there, it struggles to avoid it at all, even if it’s tucked into in one corner of the pool. While that’s easily fixable by not having the hose vacuum in while this is running, it’d be nice to do other pool maintenance real quick while this skims. Overall though, it’s a really nice little supplement to our usual pool routine, and so far has made it easier. As long as it continues to hold up (and I have high hopes based on what I’ve observed so far!) I would not hesitate to purchase one outright in the future, or recommend that someone I know gets one.
