If you’ve been waiting for a robotic pool cleaner that actually feels like an upgrade, this might be the one. The Aiper Scuba X1 just hit a new low price of $500 at Woot, which is a whopping $1,000 off its list price of $1,500. Even Amazon, Woot’s parent company, has it currently listed at $1,000. This is the first time we’ve seen this model dip so low, but this limited-time offer won’t last long.
Right now, you can grab the Scuba X1 for well under half price and get features like 6,600-GPH suction, dual roller brushes and WaveLine 2.0 waterline scrubbing. It’s designed for inground pools up to 2,150 square feet and comes with a wireless charging dock for easy storage. You’ll also get OmniSense sensors for obstacle detection and WavePath 3.0 navigation, which helps it clean more efficiently than older models. Aiper’s app lets you control and monitor the robot remotely, though underwater use requires HydroComm Pro or Pure.
The Scuba X1 also features an upgraded multilayer filtration system that captures debris as small as 3μm, making it ideal for fine sand and pebbles. It runs through 4+1 cleaning modes, and its smart navigation ensures it doesn’t waste time idling or doubling back. OTA updates keep the robot’s software fresh, so it gets smarter over time.
