5000mAh Cordless Pool Cleaner

I gotta say, I'm impressed with this little monster. I've had it just over a week now and used it several times to clean my 16' x 32' rectangular pool. The pool is 3' deep at both ends and 5' deep in the middle, making the slope well within the specified 15 degree limit. My wife named the little guy Herbie, because he looks like the Love Bug from the movie.About the performance: my pool litter is mainly comprised of ash tree leaves, pine needles and fine desert dust. This robot picks it all up, no problem. I've always owned pressure-side cleaners from Ray Vac to Polaris 360. This robot cleans at least as well as they did within its 90 minute cycle. It helps if I use the pole brush to push the silt out of the corners of the pool before it runs, as when the Paxcess gets to the radius at the base of the walls its suction gates are sometimes raised too far from the plaster to pick up everything. But I can't say for sure that it wouldn't eventually scatter the dust and pick it up. I need to try without the brushing to know for sure. But as for leaves and pine needles on the floor of the pool, they're all gone within 90 minutes.What Paxcess doesn't do: It doesn't climb walls, more than just the radius at the base. It also won't get onto steps or ledges. It doesn't brush the surface. It has a single, stationary, brush that's used to help it pick up debris, not to scrub the surface. It doesn't have intelligence to map the pool, its movements are guided by the directional settings you set on its two jets, and it will take some experimentation to get them set right to cover the entire pool. Mine was spending 90% of its time in one half of my pool until I spent an hour or so watching it and fiddling with settings on the jets.. not unlike the pressure-side cleaners I've owned. But once dialed in, it covers every part of the pool. It doesn't stay in the pool and run in the background or on a timer. When you need the pool cleaned, you turn it on, drop it in and let it run, then pull it out after 90 minutes (it stops near the side of the pool where you can grab its string/handle, but sometimes I need to use a pole to reach it, no big issue). Then hose it out and put it back on the charger. It will be ready to go again in about 4 hours.At about half the price of a pressure-side cleaner and about a third the cost of a plug-in robotic cleaner, I think this performs at least as well as the former, and probably nearly as good as the latter, if you don't mind starting and stopping it each time. And cleaning it out is easy. Other reviewers have included photos of the screen and holding area. Both are the size of the entire chassis of the unit, so there is plenty of screen and capacity.As with all rechargeable things, I'm sure the battery will degrade over time, and I'm hopeful that replacement batteries will be available (maybe they already are, I haven't looked). But overall for the price, and if you don't mind manually brushing the walls and steps once in a while, this is a great cleaner. I'm very satisfied with my purchase.

Update : 6/25Incredible failure in the Customer Service area . The robot needs a simple filter frame . There is no way to contact this company. Even the parent company ignores service requests. I’d pay a little more and get another brand .Update : 5/05/25 : still haven’t found a seller for the filter screen . I’ve tried to fabricate my own filter by cutting and gluing fabric over the frame . The frame is now breaking . I’ve also noticed that the price has dropped by over $200.00 ! I feel ripped off by the price drop and the unavailability of a common replacement part . I’m going to try the parent company , Apier , to see if I can order a filter before the season starts . Very disappointed and frustrated!Update : 7/11/24 :The unit is still working well accept for the filtering screen which has started to disintegrate. I’ve attempted to contact the seller to order a replacement filter screen . They don’t have a customer service dept. from what I can tell . I did make contact with a company associated with the seller . They stated that the “ hook” I needed was out of stock but were expected to be back I stock in two weeks . More than two weeks have passed and there hasn’t been any contact from that company . I’ve resorted to wrapping the filter in a cloth pool skimmer sock . That works for now . Just buyer beware that there is no parts or customer support after the sale .Update 9/17/22:Just finished another season and it’s still working fine. My pool is near trees that shed Pine Needles constantly. This unit handles them and any leaves easily . Opening in the Spring means running 2-3 times to get what ever got under the cover , but the end of season to close only needs one pass to prepare it for the cover etc…Easy to set up right out of the box . The price value of this unit was the main attraction. I do see that the price has gone up about $20.00 since I bought a few weeks ago .It runs a long time ( 90 minutes at least ) on a full charge . Does an excellent job of cleaning .I have a 15’x33’ Oval Above Ground Pool. I set one nozzle to 0 degrees and the other at 20 degrees. That setting seems to hit all the areas . Easy to lift out , and clean the tray . I really like the ease of use . I can’t speak long term life as it’s brand new , but I’m very happy so far .
