Reliable, simple, and works super well!
The media could not be loaded. Fantastic robot vacuum! It is beating a lot of the major brands out there!Honestly, I did not buy it believing it is the best out there. I am just getting tired of those major brands charging a arm and leg for some basic functions. I decided to get this a try. I am so surprised by it! Here are highlights,1. It works well! Picking up leaves, getting the water flow up in the pool, and removing some debris from the waterline are everything that I am asking for, and it does that very well!2. Scheduling function works well! I like to get it to work super early in the morning, and that works! 4AM every morning, floor cleaning for 2 hour, wall and waterline for 2 hours, everyday. It is basic, simple and reliable.3. leaf collection tank is huge. It is bigger than the major brand I have (Poloris).4. App privacy -- no login needed, no wifi needed, just bluetooth and the machine saves all the setting you have, including scheduling. What's better is that you can still update this thing! I love that the company does not force you to create an account and share all personal information with them, and they still provide all updates, functions, and features!Control unit is small and pretty. I am not sure how long it will last underneath the direct sun, so I am going to find a shed box for it. I will report here for any issues down the road.This thing is such a fantastic product from a small company. I am now loving this much more than the three poloris monsters that I have without any scheduling feature!

Cleaning Game - Changer!
The media could not be loaded. just unboxed the Chasing Poolmate Hydro 4 Pool Robot Cleaner, and I'm already stoked to share my thoughts. Right out of the box, it looks sleek and well - built.First, let's talk about its cleaning capabilities. It's a champ at tackling both inground and above - ground pools. Whether it's the floor, walls, or waterline, this little robot gets to work and leaves everything sparkling clean. The 50ft cord gives it a good range, so even in larger pools, it can reach all the spots that need cleaning. And that 4.1L top - load filter basket? It's a beast at holding all the debris, so you don't have to empty it constantly.The smart app control with WiFi and Bluetooth is a huge plus. I can start, stop, or schedule cleanings right from my phone, which is super convenient. No more having to be physically near the pool to get the robot going.Now, for the minor thing that could be better. The initial setup for the app connection took a bit of fiddling. Maybe the instructions could be a bit more detailed to make that process smoother for first - time users.All in all, this pool robot cleaner is a game - changer for pool maintenance. It saves so much time and effort, and the cleaning results are top - notch. Even with the small app setup hiccup, I'd highly recommend it to anyone with a pool who wants to make their life easier.

Climbs walls in floor only mode
The media could not be loaded. This order arrived to my house on Monday, June 23. I unpacked it and installed it into the waterproof electrical box I used for my previous cleaner in pretty short order. Downloaded the app, and configured the Wi-Fi and Bluetooth with no issues as other people have previously mentioned; I guess they are just idiots. It took me 10 minutes, tops. This included a firmware upgrade. Everything worked as it’s supposed to.My pool is 20 x 40 with an 8 foot deep end. Two jets, two ladders, two sets of steps in the shallow corners. my biggest issue with the pool is tree debris from neighboring trees. Bark, twigs, leaves. After it sits in the pool, it decomposes and breaks down and turns into fine particulate matter.I played around with the manual setting on the floor for a while. Very cool to be able to go exactly where you want to go and get large piles of debris, dirt, leaves, pool, funk. I then created a custom setting. My parameters were floor only, S-shaped pattern, four hours. This video shows that it loves to hit the walls. In spite of the fact I selected floor only.The walls on my pool stay fairly clean. If this thing would stick to the program, it would probably do a pretty good job. However, if this first run is any indicator, I’m going to be returning this unit to Amazon in very short order. In the five minutes, it took for me to draft this review, it has climbed the walls and additional five times. In fact, I dare say it has spent more time on the walls than on the floor, even though it is supposedly on floor only mode. I will give it a few more days and see if it possibly needs to map my pool in order to perform better. If not, thank goodness it’s on prime, and I will just send it back and try another unit. If the situation improves, I will update my review and my stars.June 24 update:So, I will say it did a superb job of cleaning. I had a very heavy amount of debris since my old cleaner has been dead a month.It does not follow an S-pattern even when using one of the canned floor only formats. It just randomly scoots along, covering a solid 95% of my total floor space. I got the remaining 5% with the manual setting. It did not scrub the walls with this format either. As it approached the vertical surface, it would stop, pivot, and proceed. I think this is where the lack of S-pattern comes in. It does not do a precise 180 degree turn every time, causing it to go off in angles all over the place.My initial review was a 3, I will bump it up to 4, with considerations to a 5. I was skeptical with its initial performance out of the box. I have a large pool and would like the ability to manually program it to do what I want, as advertised. As long as it is durable and maintains this level of cleaning performance, I might forego the advertised features and give it 5 stars.July 17 update. Unit has lost connection and says it is not in the water. Neither is the case. I still have a 6 day window to send it back to Amazon for a full refund, so off it goes. Shame because it has potential. Cleaned well but programming bugs could not be overcome.

Great Cleaner
I was hesitant on buying this but I sure am glad I did , the pool is the cleanest its ever been with this unit, its so quiet and effective, the basket is huge and even with the standard filter basket it still picks up sand and dirt, great cleaner and you will not be disappointed at all. I went from a Polaris 3900 sport and this now allows those pumps to not run at full speed to get it going, this will save money and those pumps from burning out also...

Bought for my rental property, works great
I bought this one for our rental property and honestly, I'm going to buy another for our main home. Setup was super easy and the app allows you to schedule it to run which is great just before parties. It climbs the walls and scrubs the waterline (which is important because we get that white buildup that requires a sand blast every few years). I went with the corded version because I doubt my renters would charge it. It parks itself at the edge when it’s done which in a weird way is actually cute.
