(2024 New) Seauto Crab Cordless Robotic Pool Vacuum, Wall-Climbing, Automatic Pool Cleaner, Suitable for Walls and Floors of 1614 Square Feet Pool

At our place not only am I the pool guy but also the auto mechanic, plumber, electrician, carpenter, painter etc...... The less time I spend on pool maintenance the more time I can enjoy the pool so I am always looking to make my life a little easier.I am constantly battling pine tree pollen, pine cone pods. pine needles, italian cypress debris, privet tree debris etc......Our pool is a 20,000 + gallon salt water pool with a "Water guru" pool chemical monitor, "Remington" solar chlorine generator, "Beta SE" solar pool skimmer, and just added "Seauto" cordless pool vacuum.I love this vac. It completes the closest thing I can come up with to have a fully automated pool. The Water Guru tells me when chemicals are required, the Remington boosts the coloring levels, but since I have salt water there is no heavy chlorine side effects. The Beta Se picks up debris and pollen before it gets to the filter. I added this little guy to eliminate the side suction Kreepy krawly that is just not up to standards.I unplug the seauto and drop it in and it goes nuts. The family freaks out because it crawls up the walls and cleans the water line so it looks like it is trying to get out of the pool. No more green pollen on the tile at the water line. When it is done I just pull it out of the pool and clean up is easyI get to enjoy the pool and spend less time maintaining it.Update. After reading a lot of reviews about how quickly this pool cleaner died, I felt pretty good until I didn't. A few months ago the Seauto started doing some odd things. It stopped cleaning after a few minutes, yet when I pulled it out of the pool it started up again and jumped back into the pool. Then, just under the year mark it completely died. Tried to charge the battery and no lights, to talking, just an anchor. I pulled the battery out and there was a bit of water and debris in the battery compartment.I dried everything out and let the bot dry out for a few days. Put everything back together again but still had a dead pool cleaner.I reached out to Seauto customer service about trouble shooting and never received any return communications.I did some diagnostics on the battery and the AC/DC adapter ,and, both tested as they are functioning properly. That leaves me to believe the control board failed. I will be pulling it apart and looking to see if the seal is inadequate for this product.For the price paid for this I, would expect a product that lasts longer than 40 charges in just under a year.

As recommended from a friend who had an earlier model, we got it for our pool and it’s great. After the hurricanes, our screen was torn and letting in all the tree debris. We dropped it in and after about 2-3 hours, it was literally spotless. It goes all the way up the wall to clean the tile edges and bumbles around on the bottom in somewhat of a pattern, but don’t concern yourself with that… just let it do its thing. After it’s done, it will park itself near a wall and you use the provided hook to scoop it out. Let it drain a bit because it’s heavy when full of water. We have an average size 20k gal backyard pool and the battery life is easily enough to do one twice the size. The app works, but doesn’t do a whole lot and not necessary once you do the basic setup. I haven’t needed to replace anything yet, but recommend storing it out of the sun while you charge it to prevent the plastic and rubber from rotting. I don’t notice charge time, only need to use it every couple of days so unless you have mulch surrounding your pool or an obnoxious amount of trees, once a day/night is plenty.

2nd Update and unfortunately 1 week after use 1 of 2 robots stopped working. No lights, no power, not charging. Attempted several calls to number listed for support and none were answered. Sent email and none was answered. This is turning out to be an expensive experiment and a hassle to return - just waiting for the second robot to stop. In addition, Amazon is taking forever to issue a refund - I now had to contact them 4 times and still have not refunded. My advice is stay away from this item altogether at this point.==============================================================================I am updating this review and actually purchased a second one while the price was discounted -Pros:-no assembly required - take off wraps, charge it, download app, and stick it in your pool-the app actually works very well and you'll get a much, much longer battery life when you do BOTTOM/FLOOR only - STANDARD work mode shortens life by about 40-50% by my estimates after using it for a week-it will take a few uses, but eventually it learns the dimensions and topography of your pool and it's amazing how it navigates it-handles stairs very well and doesn't get stuck ANYWHERE, or blow out water all over my deck unlike my previous POLARIS-the basket has a fine mesh and will trap a surprising amount of small particulates which is excellent-all the soft rubber components make me comfortable that it will not damage my liner if it brushes too hard as it sometimes does on some of the walls-will save you lots of energy/electricity during summer if you previously used a booster pump - mine finally burned out and when I did a price comparison to replace I decided this was the better deal both on the initial cost and electricity consumption even when I bought the second oneCons:- Hard to say how long this will last-Can't seem to find any replacement parts on Amazon therefore I bought a second one-The charging unit, although sturdy, is not WEATHER PROOF - that is bad engineering on a pool cleaner that's meant to stay outside - don't leave it uncovered in the rain or under sprinklers because you will have the unpleasant surprise that it will short - replacement parts (as I mentioned) don't appear to be readily available-Manufacturer/vendor not easy to communicate with and this particular unit comes under a few different names and branding
