Standout Features of the Aiper Seagull Pro
The Aiper Seagull Pro Cordless Robotic Pool Cleaner is the brand’s most advanced pool cleaner yet. Featuring a world-first quad-motor system, the WavePath Navigation Technology, and a 4-wheel drive system, this device can clean your entire pool including the walls and waterline with maximum efficiency.
Its powerful motor filters up to 130 gallons of pool water per minute, allowing it to trap more debris, from leaves to dirt, pebbles, and sticks. The Seagull Pro offers 10x more cleaning for less energy as it works under a fixed pattern instead of randomly.
It can clean up pools up to 3200 Sq. Ft. and comes equipped with three modes of cleaning which allows you greater control and target trouble spots in your pool. For example, you can select floor-only, wall-only or automatic cleaning modes directly from the top of the robot. This mode control also glows green/yellow/red to indicate battery charge.
The built-in 9000mAh battery provides the Seagull Pro with a longer battery life of up to 180 minutes, which is 60% more battery life compared to other robotic pool cleaners, and a shorter charging time of just 90 minutes (although some customers indicate that charge time seems to vary).
The cordless design means that there are no tangled cords or complicated accessories, simply drop the pool vacuum in the pool and let the Aiper Seagull Pro Cordless Robotic Pool Cleaner handle the cleaning.
