Aiper Seagull Pro Cordless Robotic Pool Cleaner Review

 

The Aiper Seagull Pro is a cordless robotic pool cleaner and they have improved it over the last generation that I tested. It still has a few quirks like getting stuck on raised flat main drains and a rather different pre-programmed cleaning pattern.

Aiper claims it is designed to clean a pool up to 3,200 sq ft but that doesn’t make sense when you are trying to figure out if it is right for your pool size. A 3,200 sq ft pool is an Olympic-sized pool (40’x80’) which to me is very bold. I would say it will excel at a standard 15’x30 ft medium to a small backyard pool. 15,000 gallons or less and nothing larger because of the unique cleaning pattern. 

More on the cleaning pattern. If you set it for floors and walls it will spend time on the pool floor going in a back-and-forth pattern and then pivot to move across the entire pool floor until it reaches a wall or sloping area. Then it will switch to cleaning the walls. With a run time of about 3 hours, this pattern is better suited for a small to medium pool. A lot of the negative reviews speak about it not cleaning the entire pool. I suspect those are larger 20,000-gallon plus pools. 

I must say the mode dial on top is a nice touch. You can set it to clean the floors only, the floors and walls and the walls only. 

The build quality is excellent. This has the true feel of a production cleaner. It’s a bit heavy at 20 lbs but that is due to the large lithium-ion battery. Which charges very fast within 90 minutes. The charging port could be a fail point so always make sure the runner plug is firmly in place and the charging port is closed. 

The only downside I see is that the filter canister only filters dirt down to 180 microns. This means that the finer dirt will not be picked up by the cleaner. A fine-filter canister would be nice maybe down to 60 microns 

I would say for the price it is a solid robotic pool cleaner and suitable for many pools but not all of them. It will leave your medium to small pool pretty spotless after cleaning.
