## What reviewers found

### Aiper Scuba X1 Pro

- Cybershack (8.7/10): Scored 8.7/10. Removed all debris from the test pool including tile line dirt, ran about 134 min on Auto with 28% battery left, took 5 h to charge, and the 3 µm sock was very dirty after one clean. Adaptive mode added about 20 min to cover curved fillets. [Source](https://cybershack.com.au/cleaning/aiper-scuba-x1-pro-adds-smarts-to-the-essential-poolbot-review)
- The Pool Nerd: Labeled Pool Nerd Disapproved. Saw leaves swirl around the 7.75 in intake, larger debris missed and fine silt needing several cycles; 180 min runtime only in Eco mode and 3 to 4 h recharges. The site prefers corded robots.

### Beatbot AquaSense 2

- Bob Vila (4.5/5): Over three months in a debris heavy Florida pool it climbed walls, scrubbed a couple of inches above the waterline and cut manual cleaning to almost zero; it cannot clean stairs and misses upper tile. [Source](https://www.bobvila.com/reviews/beatbot-aquasense-2-review.md)
- The Pool Nerd: Labeled Pool Nerd Disapproved: barely finished one full cycle, suction felt weak, missed corners and steps, and debris fell back out when lifted. Affiliate site that favors corded robots. [Source](https://www.thepoolnerd.com/beatbot-aquasense-2-review)
