I agree about the website, but I spent a bit of time on the phone with them and they seem quite good. It is a smaller version of the Blue Diamond and is new this year. They made it to sell at a lower price point. What they did was put in a smaller motor so they claim it will take 3 hrs rather than 1hr to clean. Also there is not automatic shut off, so they say most people just install a $15 timer on it. It comes with a full 2 year warrantee and a 14 no question money back guarantee. Also it uses a better approach to cleaning in that it will make random turns while moving rather than just moving in straight lines till it hits something or hits the waterline at the top of the wall.

As for Carl's problem mine is doing the same sort of stuff after only one week, so it is going back. To spend over $1,000 for a semi-automatic toy is a mistake.
