Cordless flagship with a dock that rinses its filter for you

- Our score: 6.4 out of 10
- Price: $3,799 (checked Nov 4, 2026)
- Status: on sale
- Best for: owners who never want to clean a filter
- Skip if: you are on a budget or short on deck space
- HTML version: https://robotsforthat.com/robot/beatbot-aquasense-x/

## Verdict

The most hands off pool robot you can buy: it cleans every surface and its station rinses the filter, so you rarely touch debris. Three testers found the cleaning excellent, but the price is close to $4,000, the robot weighs about 29 lb, and the station needs its own outlet and hose. Most owners would get most of the cleaning from a cheaper Beatbot like the Sora 70.

## Pros

- Cleans floor, walls, waterline and surface
- Station rinses the filter and holds 22 L of debris
- Strong waterline results in testing
- 3 year full replacement warranty

## Cons

- About $3,800 even on sale
- Heavy robot that you lift onto the station
- Station needs a hose line, outlet and space
- No app control while underwater
