Aiper Scuba S1 cordless pool robot
Scuba S1 (listing labelled 2024), black
A cordless pool robot for floors and walls between services
Skimming and brushing the floor and walls is the repeat pool chore it reduces. You drop it in, start a cycle and lift it out afterwards.
Water chemistry, skimming the surface, filter work and opening/closing the pool all stay with you or your pool service. The cycle length is run time, not time saved.
