  • Here's my review on the Aiper Scuba S1 Pro.
    The Big Brother model to the Aiper Scuba series. It does not disappoint! Packed with more features than the normal Scuba S1.
    Main key features include being able to be used in bigger and more complex pools, an ultra-fine filter, enhanced waterline cleaning, and access to an online app.
    However, one main component to the online app has yet to be released, the Hydrocomm system. This means the app is basic and limited in use at the moment. There is no estimate on when this optional accessory will be released.
    But even without it, the S1 Pro is still a great cordless cleaner!

    This is my third robotic pool cleaner, my Seagull Pro the know stopped working, and I just returned the Beat Aqua Sense Pro, and bought this one after this review. So far I am super happy! It does a great job of cleaning my pool with out getting tangled in my Betta skimmer, that I need to have going all the time due to pollen. Great combination I hope it lasts.

    Solid review thanks. For anyone else out there wondering, I have a large (10ft deep) lima bean shaped pool and the S1 pro does seem to do a very good job on it. I also have gigantic drains and it handles those with no problem. Only issue I have seen is that I also have 2 large "drains" on the side wall of my pool which feeds some laminer jets and it cannot get over those

      Is your pool plaster or liner? I have a freeform curved plaster pool with a shallow side that gradually slopes to a 9ft deep bowl. I have the Scuba S1 and it seems to get stuck in the deep end when it starts doing its patterns. I used to have an old corded tiger shark that never had an issue with it, but love not having the cord.
      Is the scuba s1 pro any better pattern wise? Or should I go a different route I’m wondering. I definitely like the ultra fine filters on it.

    • @imdefinitelydavid
      @imdefinitelydavid  หลายเดือนก่อน

      Well both the Scuba S1 and Pro versions are rated for pool depths of 10 feet so strange it should do okay in 9 feet.
      However, the Pro is bigger and more powerful so I'd assume it'll do better in the same spot. And yes, the two part filter system with the ultra-fine filter is 👍
      Forgot to mention the pool is Pebble tec

      @@adlerhut4397 Hmm could just my unit maybe, it just doesn’t seem to agree with my pool shape. I’ve just been pulling it out about halfway through its cycle, cleaning it, then putting it back in the shallow end and it does an okay job, it still seems to miss a few spots though, and loses a bit of power after pulling through some sand or dead algae. I think in a perfect world, I’d love to have a corded unit for deep cleans, and something cordless like this for light stuff.

      There's actually going to be a new cleaner coming soon that works in a similar way, called the Aquamarvin AM6.
      It's a cordless robotic cleaner that's tethered to a cord in the pool with a separate floating skimmer attached to the other end. It also has the option to be converted from a cordless cleaner to a corded cleaner... all for about the 1100 dollar range.

    Like some others I was very persuaded by the Beatbot Aquasense Pro, and almost pulled the trigger on one. But I also noticed a lot of raving reviews were by people provided the product for free. Thanks to your review, and mainly by the fact you spent your own money on your robots, I just ordered the Aiper Scuba S1 Pro at the current discount PLUS the additional percentage off with the code mentioned below. Hope this works out well. Replacing my very old Dolphin Diagnostic RD-DC. Still runs great, but the cable drives me nuts.

      Honestly, I have set the Aquasense Pro on the side for weeks now. I switched to using the Scuba S1 and then more recently the S1 Pro and combine it with an automatic pool skimmer. The combo works great, better I'd say, than the Aquasense Pro, and it was way less expensive.
      Hope the Scuba S1 Pro works out for you!

    Its pretty good with wall cleaning compared to the Beatbot as it really covers the whole wall and waterline..The trouble is when it goes to the floor mode.It just goes circling around in one area and I have to turn it off and change the mode to floor manually to work.The other issue in floor mode is that it seems it has a number of cycle in one direction before it changes to other direction so once it reaches the end side,it would keep going to its pattern in the end are for how ever how long before it changes direction to the other side of the pool.

    Awesome video. I'm currently debating this one vs. the Dolphin Nautilus CC Plus. I do want an ultrafine filter (so I'd need to shell out $50 for the Dolphin for those), but otherwise am just looking for a quality clean that gets the entire pool. Stated another way, I'm fine having to retrieve and charge this one after every use IF it gets me better floor cleaning than the Nautilus CCP (and then the waterline cleaning would be a bonus). Since they are currently priced about the same, what do you recommend? I already returned a Dolphin Premier since it couldn't climb my walls, and the floor mapping seemed pretty awful.

    • @imdefinitelydavid
      @imdefinitelydavid  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I'm very impressed with the Pro model right now. The navigation system is better than the CC Plus and it also climbs walls and cleans the waterline.
      You can actually get it cheaper on the main Aiper site right now than amz has it and also add the coupon code "ASAP15" for a bigger discount. Making it less expensive than the CC Plus even

    Hey David, that you did your honest reviews. Question. What is your ultimate go to for a cordless robotic pool cleaner? I'm not ste I care much about the skimmer feature that cleans the surface of the water because it all ends up on the bottom for the most part anyway.
    Do you have a cordless favorite that you use?
    Thank you. Appreciate what you do....

    • @imdefinitelydavid
      @imdefinitelydavid  23 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      My current favorite cleaner is this Scuba S1 Pro. Mainly for two reasons.
      One, there is a weekly timer function so I can leave it for a week at a time before needing to charge.
      And two, it has an ultra-fine filter option. For those times I want a more deeper clean.
      However, if you don't need those 2 options there are other cordless cleaners that do well that are less in cost. Really depends on what features you want I'd say.

  • @karlsinki986
    @karlsinki986 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Great review David! I was impatiently waiting for this one and you delivered. I will say that I initially put in a pre-order for the S1 Pro but then 3 customer service reps (through chat) told me the hydrocomm was completely cancelled for now with no ETA in sight. Reason = Did not pass quality control. And by the way they gave me the same resonsing for the solar charger. Both hydrocomm and solar charger are a no-go according to 3 customer service reps. The main selling point for me with the hydrocomm was by far the water monitoring function and I am very disappointed about the fact that they cancelled it if indeed the case.
    One thing I do want to ask you David. I did end up cancelling my S1 Pro to then simply order the S1 and so far I love it. I did notice that it has a WIFI ship in it although the Aiper App does not detect it. In other words as soon as the clearner is ON, I detect a Aiper SSID. Did you notice that as wel when using the S1? And is this hardware option in the S1 that is there in case the Hydrocomm or Solar Charger ever does get released some day?
    As always your feedback is super valuable.
    Cheers,
    Karl

    • @imdefinitelydavid
      @imdefinitelydavid  หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thanks for sharing your experience with their customer service! I can't seem to ever get a straight answer.
      It's a real letdown if they do discontinue both features. Even without the Hydrocomm and solar panel though, it's still a great premium style cleaner for the price, especially right now with that sale price.
      I know the technology takes a while to develop. Even with the Beatbot Aquasense Pro, which boasts itself as the "smartest" cleaner on the market with all their tech, they're limited as well.
      I really do like the idea of separate accessories that can be attached to a cordless cleaner though. Like, now I'm expecting new cordless cleaners to follow this pattern as well.
      Also, I did not notice the app picking up a normal S1 signal. I'm also also curious why that would be. I mean, no way they would add that for free later on, but maybe you're right, could be for those extra accessories if they're ever released.

      Already working on a video comparing both!
      In short, the Scuba S1 works better as a simple plug and play cleaner, especially if you don't want the wifi/online app aspect.
      The S1 Pro is better if you have a larger/more complex pool, OR if you want an ultra-fine filter, OR if you actually do want wifi capability and an online app, OR you just like nice things and have the money lol.

    Hey David, awesome channel! Glad I found it. My Dolphin Premier Robotic Pool Cleaner died just after 3 years and I'm looking at this robot.

    • @imdefinitelydavid
      @imdefinitelydavid  17 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      The Premier is one of my all time favorite cleaners. I use the heck out of it during fall with the leaf bag and all my trees. That's the best part of the Premier for me. That with the constant power since it's a corded cleaner.
      The Aiper Scuba S1 Pro right now is my go to during the swim season where I get less debris. But it's very different than the Premier. Hands down, the Scubas are more convenient to use and move around and I love them. But I know that when the fall comes, the battery won't be able to keep up with all the debris unlike the Premier.
      But if you're not surrounded by trees like me, during the fall season, the Scubas will do great.
      With longevity it's tough to say since they're still new cleaners. But I have an older Seagull Pro from Aiper and that's been around for about 2 years now. And that's still up and running fine if it's worth anything.

      I don't think the waterline feature is necessary, but yes, it's totally cool to see, and it really does save time cleaning just the waterline. If you get an especially dirty waterline, for sure upgrade it.
      But if you're happy with how the normal S1 does at this moment, I'd save the money and stick to it. Unless you're really keen on using the app and the "potential" extra optional accessories LATER ON. Bummer that most of those cool online features are not yet available.

In auto mode the Scuba Pro gets stuck on my swim ledge going up and down in a never-ending repeating pattern. In floor mode the scuba Pro gets stuck on the deep end going back and forth in a never-ending repeating pattern. I was never able to connect the surfer to the app ( scuba connected fine ) and after 4 days the surfer kept spinning around in circles. Did many resets, to no avail.

    The one thing that suck about Aiper is their customer service. Placed my order in April as a "pre-order", after talking to an Aiper rep that said shipping will start in May. I was ok with waiting, but then my neighbor placed an order end of April, got his S1 Pro beginning of May. Then I see Aiper advertised the S1 Pro as in "stock" on Facebook, and several people received their S1 Pro right away, and there are those that placed their order before April haven't got their unit, some placed their order after April got theirs. I contacted Aiper, they reminded me that my order was a "pre-order", after several emails, it keeps going back to that it's a "pre-order". Talked to a rep, she said "end of June", it would be great to have a pool cleaner for swimming season and not half way through. They have no answer on the comm or solar charging, and I just found out, my neighbor's friend placed his order 2 weeks ago, got his S1 Pro last week.

      I totally agree with you. I do NOT like Aiper on a customer service level. They are very unclear on things and terrible at responding. It's totally unfair for you how they're treating you, considering the fact you pre-ordered. As much as I love their cleaners, I very much dislike their customer service.

    Hi David, I bought the Aquasense Pro, based on your review. Just received it today and used it for the first time. Used pro mode and observed that it did not do a very good job of cleaning the floor or skimming. Pool was already fairly clean, but the Aquasense missed 50%+ of the leaves on the floor and surface. Was optimistic, but ended up pretty disappointed with it's performance. I guess all the sponsored and free product reviews (know your review was honest) were a red flag. Will maybe give it one more shot tomorrow then return (via Amazon), if performance not significantly better. That being said, I did really like that the app let me know when it was done and it parked on the surface and was easy to reach and remove from pool. Presuming performance will not be any better, what should I do? Should I get this pro and the Apier skimmer, or the regular S1 and Apier skimmer, or something else? Also, does the Scuba Pro have OTA updates? Thank you!

      @imdefinitelydavid  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I'm really liking the S1 Pro more every day as I use it. I think the combo of the S1 Pro with the skimmer would be great, even better than the Aquasense Pro because the skimmer would be on all the time(assuming it's charged enough) as opposed to the Aquasense Pro where you have to wait for it to transform itself basically.
      The navigation system on the S1 Pro is impressive too. I noticed it sensed my return jets and skimmer and went around them in the pool. The Aquasense didn't do that or at least I didn't notice it.
      Plus the potential for the Hydrocomm later on being added to the S1 Pro makes it a stable wifi connection so you get better controls from the app. Right now, there are more features on the app from Beatbot but if the Hydrocomm gets released soon, I think it'll be better. And yes, the S1 Pro supports firmware updates through the app.
      Hope this helps!

      The S1 Pro would be my choice. The Zima Pro won't climb up steep ledges on its own because of how long it physically is.
      Although it's totally cool to be connected to wifi all the time and great to control it like an rc car, it's kind of more work for me than the S1 Pro is, which does climb ledges well.

    David, What cordless pool cleaner do you use these days?

    • @imdefinitelydavid
      @imdefinitelydavid  หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      I swap out a few cordless cleaners because I have the luxury of having so many of them lol. I tend to have a fully charged one on the side ready to go on a weekly basis. I always prefer cleaners with weekly timers because I get so busy/forget to turn them on and off.
      I've been using the Scuba S1 with the weekly timer and swapping it every other week when it needs to charge with the Dolphin Liberty 300 with weekly timer.
      But now with this S1 Pro, I'll most likely use this one and swap it weekly with the normal S1.
      If I had to pick just one though, my current favorite is this S1 Pro, for sure.

    • @imdefinitelydavid
      @imdefinitelydavid  หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yes, I do.
      The new Seauto Seal/Crab is great for being a plug and play cleaner, super powerful, and aggressive for the price.
      But they removed the optional cleaning modes out of the box compared to last years model and I really do prefer cleaners with a weekly timer. If the Seal had a timer it'd be my choice. But that's just me, if you don't need a weekly timer it's still great!
      The Scubas are more expensive, but they have that weekly timer function I love.

    • @imdefinitelydavid
      @imdefinitelydavid  หลายเดือนก่อน

      I'm very impressed with the navigation system and obstacle avoidance with the S1 Pro. It was able to sense return jets, pool skimmer, main drains and shallow steps. It adjusted itself quite well. I'd say it's even better than the Aquasense Pro in this case.
      However, the downside is that Hydrocomm. Without it, the wifi app becomes very basic, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. I just wish these cleaners came with everything at once.
      This S1 Pro along with the skimmer is my go to cleaner right now. Honestly, I've set the Aquasense Pro aside for the time being.

    Really good in wall cleaning and waterline especially the coverage. The floor cleaning though is where im not happy.It seems it is programmed to do a number of s pattern that is why it doesn't go to the other way when it reaches one end.It will keep doing the pattern for how long it is programmed that is why at first you would think it is stucked in one end instead of starting to move other end.

      I'll have to test that out in floor mode. I usually drop it in the exact same spot in my pool and it ends up on the other side of the pool.
      I've been using the weekly timer in Eco mode and it's always in a different spot every other day so with no debris on the floor but I'll have to watch it when I get a chance on just floor mode.

      I really did love the Liberty 300 when it was first released. It was a big name brand cleaner and the only one on the market at that time with a weekly timer, so I was willing to pay the high price tag.
      But fast forward now, you've got these new cleaners like the S1 Pro that is less expensive with more features... Dolphin and Polaris really need to up their game. They're betting off of their reputation and brand name, but value wise, these smaller companies are offering way more for the price.

    I find your answers unacceptable. I filed a complaint with Amazon for breach of warranty. You have stretched the time so as not to respect the warranty on the product. All I asked was to return the unit for repair, nothing more. You have made many promises that you have never kept. This is unacceptable. Please note that I will file a legal complaint for a refund if, within 10 days, I do not obtain satisfaction. Additionally, I will endeavor to give you bad publicity on all networks and online platforms at my disposal. Your product is not good and your after-sales service is deplorable. I demand a full refund, replacement or repair free of charge from you within 10 days, failing which I will file a complaint against your company.
