  1. Carter Jameson

    This skimmer has transformed our pool maintenance routine. It’s incredibly efficient and truly set-and-forget

  2. P*****a (store manager)

    I absolutely adore my Betta, and I rarely write reviews, but this product truly deserves the praise. It excels in various aspects that are crucial to me. Firstly, it’s lightweight, sparing my back from the strain caused by my robotic pool cleaner, which focuses on the pool floor. Cleaning and emptying the filter are a breeze. As the leaves began falling into the pool, the Betta has proven itself, maintaining a pristine appearance effortlessly.

    While it might not always have the most robust suction, it effectively captures nearly everything in its path. Even if it misses something on the first pass, it tends to pick it up on subsequent rounds. I leave it in for hours, and it quietly and efficiently does its job. Retrieving it from the pool is an easy task. The solar charging feature is a game-changer; no more dealing with the hassle of charging and coordinating with my pool robot cleaner.

    And, let me tell you, there’s a serene quality to watching it quietly navigate the pool that pleasantly surprised me. Clearly, I’m a devoted fan. It adeptly handles all the unsightly debris floating on the surface. The investment was well worth it, considering the clear improvement in my pool’s cleanliness. Take a look at the attached picture—that was in the filter basket. Betta truly delivers. While I haven’t needed to use the remote much, I can confidently say, thanks to Betta, I now enjoy swimming in pristine waters!

  3. B****k (store manager)

    Surrounded by numerous trees near my pool, the skimmers and an aging auto pool cover struggled to clear debris effectively. Faced with a long wait for cover repairs, I opted for this solar-powered solution, and it’s been fantastic! Its autonomous nature is a major plus. Occasionally, it gets stuck on steps due to low water levels, but the adjustable legs prevent that. Weekly maintenance involves cleaning the bin and giving it a thorough scrub.

    With abundant trees, the filter bin may need more frequent cleaning during windy periods. The skimmer adeptly removes oils from sunscreen and body products, and we often use a scum ball in the filter bin for added efficiency. Even during long summer days, the solar-powered battery lasts well into the night. After 4 months, it’s proven to be a worthwhile investment.

    I also purchased a corded pool vacuum for the pool’s bottom and sides, while this skimmer handles the top. Together, they maintain a beautifully clean pool with crystal-clear water. However, it’s advisable to remove the skimmer during swimming, as the filter basket contents can easily spill if the water gets splashed around.

    Highly recommended for those without an auto cover or those who leave it off frequently, but perhaps less essential for those consistently using a pool cover.

  4. O****h (store manager)

    This compact machine is truly a workhorse! It has completely transformed the appearance and cleanliness of our pool. Surrounded by oak and palm trees, we used to contend with a constant layer of debris on the pool’s surface, be it pollen from palms or leaves from oaks. Skimming before a swim was routine.

    Since acquiring this little marvel, I no longer have to manually skim the pool, and it consistently looks pristine. Honestly, it might just be the best purchase I’ve made. Our pool stays clean, and I wish I had discovered this product years ago. It has made a significant difference in our pool’s appearance, and this tireless worker never stops! As a business owner for over 20 years, I humorously compare it to the best employee I’ve ever had – no payroll, taxes, sick days, or complaints.

    Being solar-operated, it occasionally takes a break on cloudy days, but those are rare in Southern California. Even in less than ideal weather, it still operates efficiently, not requiring full sun for charging. The durability is impressive; since August 2023, it continues to run flawlessly.

    If you have a pool, this product is a must-have! It effortlessly keeps the pool’s surface free from leaves, dust, dirt, and pollen. Jumping into a pool with a perfectly spotless surface is a much more enjoyable experience than having to manually skim it. For a consistently clean pool, investing in this remarkable machine is highly recommended.

  5. K***l (store manager)

    Betta, where have you been all my life? This is hands down one of the best purchases I’ve made on Amazon. It has spared me from the tedious task of skimming my pool multiple times a day, and my pool has never been this clean. Betta excels in capturing even the smallest debris that typically slips through my skimmer net. Its continuous day and night operation prevents much from sinking to the pool bottom, reducing the need for daily vacuuming.

    Since introducing Betta to my pool two months ago, it has performed flawlessly, becoming an indispensable part of my pool maintenance routine. I opted for the 3-year extended warranty, though I haven’t encountered any issues so far. I only take it out of the pool when swimming or for occasional basket cleaning. Cleaning the basket is a breeze – a quick spray with a garden hose does the trick. I usually do this daily but could easily stretch it to every 2 or 3 days.

    The solar-powered feature is a game-changer; no need to plug it in for charging. As the days shorten, I’ve noticed the green lights flashing red in the morning. During this time, it operates a bit slower until the sun charges it back to full power with green lights. While it may seem a bit pricey, the time and effort saved in cleaning my pool make it worth every penny. I couldn’t be happier with this purchase – only regret is not getting it sooner.

  6. R*****a (store manager)

    The skimmer arrived in perfect condition, and its delivery was surprisingly faster than anticipated. It’s a dream to use, especially considering our previous four attempts with an alternative product that lasted no more than two weeks each before failing. While those were replaced without issue, the downtime without a skimmer ranged from 8 to 12 weeks each time. So far, we are extremely pleased, and the unit operates remarkably quietly.

  7. J****b (store manager)

    Dealing with a leak in our underground pool lines right after the concrete was laid, I had to temporarily reroute the intake and return lines above ground. With the return line now leading to a waterfall, I needed an effective solution to skim the pool since the skimmer was detached. Although this skimmer was a bit more expensive than I initially intended to spend, it has proven to be a perfect solution. It saved me from the hassle of breaking up concrete and repairing the lines. Surprisingly, it performs even better than the built-in skimmer ever did.

    The solar charging feature works seamlessly, keeping the skimmer running well into the night, and I’ve never observed it losing power. It’s been a worthwhile investment in maintaining the cleanliness of the pool under unexpected circumstances.

  8. M******e (store manager)

    Our recent purchase of this item for our new pool has surpassed our expectations. Setting it up was a breeze, and it excels at skimming up all the little bugs and debris that accumulate on the pool’s surface. I highly recommend it. Since its arrival, I haven’t needed to use our manual skimmer at all!

  9. K***y (store manager)

    This product lives up to its advertising claims. It works exceptionally well, effectively covering the entire pool. The surface of my pool has never been this clean. With two large Great Pyrenees dogs that shed a substantial amount daily, my pool used to accumulate a considerable amount of floating hair. However, this little robot has completely transformed the situation. After just one day of use, it has eliminated every bit of debris. It performs impressively well.

  10. D****n (store manager)

    Living in Phoenix, AZ, where summer heat reigns supreme, our pool is a vital oasis. With its irregular shape, including coved seating, steps, and a tanning ledge, I prioritize keeping it clean. Our neighbors’ tall Silk Oak trees contribute to a constant influx of troublesome leaves due to the prevailing breeze.

    I received the Betta SE 2023 on July 7, 2023, placed it in the pool, and it began its cleaning journey. I absolutely LOVE THIS DEVICE! It effortlessly navigates the entire surface, addressing any trapped areas by backing up a few feet and executing a turn to avoid entanglements. Upon observation, it became apparent that this backward movement and turn are incorporated into its logic at regular intervals, serving as a preventive measure to avoid potential traps and potentially cover more pool surface. I appreciate this feature immensely.

    The skimmer boasts a large, easily cleanable basket, and its lightweight design with a user-friendly handle adds to its convenience.

  11. G****a (store manager)

    Dealing with a 50-year-old in-ground pool and an underperforming built-in skimmer, I’ve experimented with various add-ons, achieving moderate success but still battling small particles and bugs on the surface.

    Enter the robot skimmer, and it’s a game-changer. Operating at a slow, constant pace solely on solar power, it has enough battery life to endure through the night. The surface of my pool has never been cleaner.

    Even with maple leaves dropping helicopter seeds in recent weeks, the Betta skimmer manages to keep up, consistently surprising me with the amount it collects in the basket during each emptying. The true extent of debris it picks up becomes evident when you see the crystal-clear pool surface after emptying the basket.

    The build quality is more than satisfactory. Its lightweight design makes it easy to pull out of the pool, and the basket’s capacity is impressive, offering easy emptying and hosing off.

    Addressing some negative reviews, patience is key. Allowing the skimmer to work for 24 hours revealed remarkable results, showcasing the device’s effectiveness in maintaining a clear water surface.
