The AquaSense Pro sits on the charging dock when not in use.Lifewire / Jerri Ledford
That’s whereBeatbot’s AquaSense Procomes in.
The area I live in is hot, hot.
And there are beaches nearby, but during the summer beaches mean sharks and tourists.
The AquaSense Pro has suction to vacuum, but also brushes to clean the pool, too.Lifewire / Jerri Ledford
I do, however, love to spend time in the pool.
So anything that makes maintaining that pool easier is always of interest.
And the AI that’s integrated into the unit is designed to make it smarter.
The companion app for the AquaSense Pro gives you controls for an information about your robot.Lifewire / Jerri Ledford
Let’s see how that worked out.
Setting Up the AquaSense Pro
So, first of all, this isn’t a tiny robot.
In fact, if you’ve ever seen a robot lawn mower, it’s about that size.
The AquaSense Pro will clean the walls and the waterline as well as the bottom and skimming the pool.Lifewire / Jerri Ledford
Overall, about two feet long and about a foot and a half wide.
However, for its size, the box wasn’t as big as you might expect.
It was well-packaged, and the charging stand comes in 3 pieces that you have to put together.
There’s no assembly required on the robot other than popping a clarifying cartridge into the appropriate spot.
I ended up having to use my iPad, because it failed when I tried with my iPhone.
It has a clarifying agent cartridge that it’s possible for you to choose to use or not.
I used it, and my pool water was sparkling when it was done.
My pool guy seemed pretty impressed with how well the robot maintained the cleanliness of the pool, too.
He’s had to spend less time working on the pool since I started using this.
Here’s where I was disillusioned, though.
That’s not the case.
Not a big deal, but you know how assumptions are.
Despite my grousing, I really don’t mind dropping the robot into the pool and pulling it out.
I just let my imagination get away from me.
AquaSense handles it all without so much as a hiccup.
But AI means it needs a Wi-Fi connection.
That’s also how you’re able to monitor and control it with your phone or iPad.
The problem that I ran into is that my pool is pretty far away from my Wi-Fi signal.
Fortunately, the robot works just fine.
I still get a cleaning log on my iPad, and I can still adjust the cleaning cycles.
There’s a little bit of a lag, but I can work with that.
But Is the Beatbot AquaSense Pro Worth It?
It probably goes without saying that the AquaSense Pro isn’t an inexpensive rig.
At around $2200 it’s an investment.
But I believe it’s worth it.
