Aquabot Turbo T2 Review

I bought an Aquabot turbo T2 two years ago and it was one of the most poorly built pool cleaners I have ever seen.
It didn't make it through the first season without a complete failure.

When I got it back from Aquabot, it worked for another couple of runs but then a whole slew of parts wore out simultaniously. Both belts and virtually every bearing (calling them bearings is being a bit generous since they are just plastic on plastic bushings) on the robot was so worn that you could see that they were ovals rather than round holes. This wear took place in a brand new pool in less than 20 runs.

I didn't even bother to get it repaired after this because it seemed inevitable that the same thing would happen again. Before the turbo T2, I had an Aqua Queen. I used that for many years and never had to repair or replace anything.

I am very surprised that you have had such good luck with your Aquabot because mine seemed to have inherent design flaws rather than poor workmanship.
