Degrii Zima Pro Hybrid Cordless Robotic Pool Cleaner Review - Great Concept!
Description
The Degrii Zima Pro is a hybrid cordless robotic pool cleaner that will give you more options than your standard cordless robotic pool cleaner. The battery is in a floating tethered control box, giving it a longer run time of -3 hours and allowing the cleaner to be app-controlled. One thing wifi cannot do is work underwater.
Another benefit of having app control is that the Firmware of the cleaner can easily be updated. After testing the cleaner for a month, I received a new Firmware update that corrected a few things in the cleaning pattern. With each software update, this will make the Zima Pro even better.
Let's get the negative points out of the way. The cable from the robot to the controller is 11.5 ft. This should be good for most pools with standard deep ends of 6 ft to 10 ft. It is a rather heavy robot weighing over 20 lbs, and then, of course, you are transporting both the cleaner and the controller back and forth to the pool. Last, the current filters only filters down to 180 microns. So, this cleaner will not pick up the finer dirt.
The app control is very good, and you will find that the manual mode works great as well. You can select only floors and walls (Overall) or walls only.
The battery comes with a 2-year warranty, and they offer lifetime support.
The good news is that this cleaner works very well. The cleaning pattern is innovative, and it does not get stuck on the main drain or step areas of a pool. The floating battery gives it a very long 3-hour run time, a nice bonus. A Lift button will allow the cleaner to come to the side of the pool and climb the wall for easy retrieval.
