All the debris will be collected in the unique collection basket with a top handle and fine mesh filter, this design allows for easy removal and clean up. Debris that is caught in the basket, will not filter back out, it will easily move around in the water with its underwater brush-less motor system. The underwater brush-less motor directly drives the thruster, eliminating shortcomings from traditional reduction gears.
