## Useworthy take

Independent testing is strong here: CHIP measured runtimes and cleaning performance; other in-pool reviewers raise value, weight and connectivity concerns.

## Purchase context

- Market: Europe / Global
- Price: Around €1,500–€1,800 street price in recent EU tests
- Work-saved potential: High
- Setup burden: Medium
- Smart premium: Broad cleaning coverage is attractive, but a 15 kg-class cordless cleaner still creates retrieval, charging and connectivity work.

## Manufacturer claims

- **Coverage:** Floor, walls, waterline and surface
- **Motors:** 9 motors manufacturer claim
- **Sensors:** 40-sensor suite manufacturer claim
- **Runtime:** Up to 5h floor / 10h surface claims
