What reviewers found

Beatbot AquaSense 2 Ultra

The Pool Nerd: Named best cordless pick in its 2026 roundup but still labeled it Pool Nerd Disapproved, citing mesh filtration at flagship price and the daily charge and haul routine. The site prefers corded robots and earns affiliate commissions. Source
Reviewed: Did an excellent job on bottom and sides and left clear water, but could not clean the shallow tanning area or Baja shelf, lost Wi-Fi underwater, and its near 30 lb weight was hard to haul. Source

Clear UV

The Pool Nerd: Tested for a few weeks in a test pool used for 40+ robots. Rated it Pool Nerd Approved and named it Best Newcomer, but would not rank it number 1 because long term reliability is unproven. Source
ActuallyUsed: Measured 2.09 PSI at the intake with a manometer, second of 16 robots behind the Dolphin Premier at 2.2 PSI. Picked up leaves, sand and fine grit; filter rinsed in about a minute. Kill rate of the UV lamp was not verified. Source
