Why is it a good deal? 💰

It’s time to prepare your pool for a splash. Aiper Seagull SE Robotic Pool Cleaner is marked down 40%. While that’s not the lowest price we’ve ever seen, it’s still a great deal – and it means you’ll spend a lot less time cleaning and a lot more time sitting.

Why do I need this? 🤔

All you have to do is set this little guy loose in the pool and he’ll take care of the mess for you. Once switched on, it will clean for up to an hour and a half. It is suitable for above ground pools or flat in-ground pools.

The Seagull SE has two dual-drive motors that allow it to navigate its way through the water and collect road debris and dirt. It is quiet, so you can run it while using the pool without any distractions. The filter tray is reusable and simple to clean: Rinse it with a hose and you’re good to go. Once the cleaning is done, you don’t have to dive into the pool to catch the Seagull SE – the included hook makes it easy to fish it out of the water.

Just to be clear: This bot is completely wireless. Put it on its charger when it’s done, and it’ll be ready to clean again in just 2.5 hours. There are four LEDs to let you know things like how much juice is left or whether the filter needs to be cleaned. Perhaps the coolest feature: It includes a chemical dispenser so you can keep the water balanced and purified without dumping everything in yourself. Bye, awful chlorine smell.

What critics say 💬

We all have better things to do than clean the pool. Nearly 9,000 five-star fans leave that chore up to the Aiper Seagull SE Robotic Pool Cleaner.

Benefits 👍

One shopper raved about the ease of use. “It makes my life so much easier,” said one verified reviewer. “This little guy is exactly what I needed. If, like me, the thought of messing with pool equipment and cleaning your pool by hand is something you’d rather not do, then look no further! … No need to lift a finger to clean your pool, except to turn the little guy off to work… I totally recommend it!”

“Why didn’t I get this sooner?” quipped another shopper. “It works exactly as it is supposed to do. Just drop it into the pool and go to lunch or shopping; when you come back, your pool is clean. I live in a wooded area and get on a lot of leaves and debris from the trees.This has picked up everything so far.

One fan said he handled the spring pollen like a champ. “It took three weeks to finally get our above ground pool working. We have a lot of trees and pollen. The bottom of our pool was pretty dirty with leaves and dirt. We put this in the pool and when it finished the pool. The bottom was flawless. It comes with a hook to grab without going into the pool.

Disadvantages 👎

While people love Aiper, some say they just don’t get it everything. “Great time saver. Just brush a few times a week and the robot does the rest! Easy to use and easy to clean. The downside is that it doesn’t get all the small debris, but it will do about 90%,” said any home owner.

Another customer said it doesn’t handle elevation changes well. “The only complaint is that it doesn’t easily navigate deep pools, and it’s prone to breaking apart. But hang on, and it’s up and running again.”
