yes you need to remove the robot's fine filter when it cleaning walls. all fine filter can only be used in floor mode
try Dolphin Nautilus CC Plus, Its comprehensive performance and price are very suitable, and it has a large sales volume and is very mature
The only thing to note is that cables and wheels may require maintenance and replacement within a few years
or any other dolphin model in your budget, try not use weekly timer.
If you want to try cordless robots, you can choose beatbot aquasense 2.
theoretically it has the best workmanship quality in cordless robot and comes with a genuine 3-year warranty.
But it doesn't have an ultra fine filter option and there may be wheelie issues.
There is no perfect robot, just choose the flaws you can tolerate and the strengths you like

Yes, I don't recommend Aquasense Pro/ultra. aiper s1 pro to anyone.
because I have actually used and charge them without a caddy
That's simply a disaster.
For those additional features that cannot offset the negative feedback of weight.
Thanks. Are there any robots that are only 12 inches wide for fountains and negative edge troughs? The handhelds I've tried don't work great
Thanks for the link. That values Aiper at about $400 Million on sales revenue of $200 Million. Plus Fluidra plans to take on a majority state in the future with additional investment. I sure wish Fluidra would change their position on selling only to “professionals”
Hi, I have a new pool and I'm in the market for a cordless robot. My pool is a rectangular fiberglass pool with autocover. It is the 41' version of the Thursday Goliath, which has a saftey ledge around the full perimeter of the pool. Right now I'm mostly considering the Aiper Scuba X1 and the AquaSense Beatbox 2. I like the ultrafine filter on the Aiper and the Surface parking feature on the Beatbox 2. However, my biggest concern is how each of each of the robots will handle the safety ledge. Will both robots be able to get past the safety ledge and scrub up to the waterline? Would the mapping system on the Beatbox 2 handle the pool shape better?

We're ready to replace our Aquabot Elite (AE) we've had for 7 short pool seasons. The pool is rectangular'ish, approx. 20' x 40'. It has with 3 squared-off steps in one corner. The incline is fairly steep and long, and we just got a new vinyl liner. Our major complaints about the AE is that it never seems to clean the whole pool, instead it consistenly misses large swaths of the pool, it fails to climb the incline, and the filter baskets are not fine enough, allowing way too much dirt through. (There's a very long gravel driveway on the other side of our fence that Amazon trucks love to speed up and down.) Due to the short pool season, it's hard to justify spending an arm and a leg for a new pool bot. If we can find a superior one, though, I think it will be worth it. Just so we don't spend what limited pool season we have with all the cleaning. Thanks for any suggestions. 
Hello Michael. Great information you've shared. Thank you.
I'm looking to replace my Polaris 9550 with a cordless robot because it has a problem with a wheel I need to try to fix and its cord has developed a twist and keeps fighting with my Betta skimmer. The 9550 was purchased 9/2021 so I'm hoping my next robot lasts longer than 3 seasons.
I don't need a remote control, I've never used the one that came with the 9550. I'm trying to keep the cost around $1,000 and take advantage of some of the sales going on this week.
My pool is a vinyl liner made in the mid 1980's. It's 36' long and 25' wide. The shallow end is 3' and the deep end is 9'. I'd describe the shape as eggplant or pear shaped. The picture of the pool is with the cover on but gives an idea of the shape.
I'm considering the Aiper S1 or Beatbox Aquasense. I'd like something that used some logic to clean the pool rather than random patterns. Thanks

Nine foot deep end!? Very nice. Envious. My 7.5' is fine, but I like it down there!! 
Thanks for the offer, Michael. Our Aiper Seagull 1500 is well into it's third year, and no longer climbs the walls. Aiper says they can replace the battery, and we'll be back in business, but I believe you can recommend something better for us. First, this Aiper has done well for us. It may not have fine filtration, but I have a
Thanks for your offer to help, Michael, and we need your expertise. Our Aiper Seagull 1500 is into it's third season and no longer climbs the walls. Aiper says they can replace the battery (or send a refurbished machine) and get us back in business, but I think 'twould be a good time to upgrade. This machine has done well for us. We have a 60x10 lap pool (4-8 feet deep) with a niche to the side of one end for a spa and a 6-foot deep 10x15 play pool, so about 750sf floor and 1000sf walls. Walls (exposed aggregate) and tile line, until the last few weeks, have never needed additional brushing except over the stairs and ledge. This Aiper may not capture fine dirt, but it gets it out into the water and our glass-media filter takes it from there. We'd upgrade for a couple of reasons: 1) From the beginning, it gets hung up one of the other of the floor drains, using up it's 90 minutes of run time without cleaning the pool. We added the foam pads Aiper suggested, but it still gets high-centered. I'd thought a track machine might be better? 2) Much less important, this does not clean the ledge or steps. It climbs the ledge and step walls, but doesn't get up onto the flat. I can start it on the ledge and manipulate it with the hook to keep on it for a bit, but it's easier to just brush it and the steps--and the walls above them. Are there machines that will include the ledge and maybe the steps?
And a limitation: Some of the flagship cleaners I've looked at are not only very expensive, but also heavy. Twenty pounds coming out the pool is fine (which means the water has stay in the pool), 25 pounds is probably OK (not 20 plus 10 pounds of water)--I really can't do 30 pounds, and I don't think I need the weight of a three-hour battery. I understand this isn't a buffet, and one has to make compromises in these things, but would do you recommend, please? Thanks again for your help.
