Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Bought last year so this review is a little late in coming, but here it is... About 3 months after using it only in our pool, the motors froze up and would not spin at all on a full charge. After removing the intake grate, I found you can pull the motor blade assembly off. When I got the blade assemblies off, I saw the internal magnetic structure and bearings completely rusted out. The blades spin using electromagnetic force. The inside of the blade assembly is metal and magnetized. Both magnetic surfaces are completely rusted over which causes the internal part of the blade to rub and eventually seizes against the main unit motors. Having spent so much money on this "toy" we always rinsed the unit with fresh water after use. Due to the close tolerances in the magnetic motor assembly however, there is no way to ensure all the moisture is eliminated. This caused the rusting. You can always remove the blade assemblies after each use, however this is not indicated anywhere and really shouldn't be considered a standard procedure. This design is bad and needs to be addressed. If you want to spend $100's of dollars on a device that will only last a few months, feel free. I would HIGHLY recommend going with some other brand/model.
