## Verdict

A simple, light cordless robot for small above-ground and flat in-ground pools that cleaned in tidy lanes and reached corners in Popular Science testing. It is rated for only 1,150 sq ft, no reviewer measured its runtime, and WinFuture says the waterline still needs a hand. Pick it as a cheap first robot for a small pool; skip it for a big or sloped pool.

## Pros

- Low price
- Light at 13 lb dry
- Methodical lane cleaning with corner brushes
- Tool free filter and brush removal

## Cons

- Rated for small pools only
- Runtime claims vary from 100 to 120 min
- Waterline needs manual cleaning per WinFuture
- Charging port must be dried and opened
