This popular robot will clean your pool like a pro — and it's nearly 50% off with a double discount

What's the worst part of owning a pool? Easy: cleaning it. It's a shame no one has made a Roomba for pools yet. Wait, what? They have! It's the Aiper Seagull SE Robotic Pool Cleaner, and it will run around the bottom of your pool vacuuming up loose debris, leaves and other gunk that you don't want to swim with or step on (yuck). Amazon Prime members can snag it for almost 50% off now — a clever buy as we inch ever closer to swimmin' season.

This little robot will de-gunk your pool, and you can stay dry when it's done — just fish it out of the water using the included hook.

Why is it a good deal?

Spring is here, which means it's just about time to get your pool ready for a splash. The Aiper Seagull SE Robotic Pool Cleaner is just $145 thanks to a double-whammy discount from Amazon Prime and the on-page coupon. We don't expect the price to drop this low again until September — you know, when summer has faded and you're out of the pool again.

Why do I need this?

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

The Seagull SE has two dual-drive motors that let it power its way through the water and collect wayward trash and dirt. It's quiet, so you can run it while using the pool without distraction. The filter tray is reusable and simple to clean: Just rinse it with a hose and you're good to go. When cleaning is done, you don't have to dive into the pool to grab the Seagull SE — the included hook makes it easy to fish it out of the water.

Just to be clear: It's completely cordless. Place this bot on its charger when it's done, and it will 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. Maybe the coolest feature: It includes a chemical dispenser so you can keep the water balanced and purified without dumping everything in yourself. Goodbye, awful chlorine smell.

What reviewers say

We all have better things to do than clean the pool. More than 8,700 five-star fans leave that chore up to the Aiper Seagull SE Robotic Pool Cleaner.

"Makes my life 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 manually cleaning your pool is something you'd just rather not do, then look no further! ... Not a finger needs to be lifted to clean your pool, except to turn the little guy on and he's off to work. ... Completely recommend!"

"Why didn't I get this sooner?" quipped another shopper. "Works exactly as it is supposed to. Just drop it in the pool and go to lunch or shopping; when you get back, your pool is clean. I live in a wooded area and get a lot of leaves and debris from the trees. This has picked up everything so far. So long, messy hoses."

"Feeling a little cynical, I didn't have crazy good expectations," admitted a third buyer. "It took off, zipping around the pool. Picked up everything beautifully. I was so happy! A good purchase! Yes! The only thing I didn't like is that it stalled in the center of the pool, and I couldn't get it out unless I got in. My pool pole, with the provided hook, was too short to reach it. So after some taping of poles together, I was able to nudge it, it then moved to the edge and I was able to get it. ... Still, it deserves five stars."

"Great time-saver. Just brush a couple times a week and the robot does the rest! Easy to use and easy to clean. The downside is it doesn’t get all the small debris, but will do about 90%," said one homeowner.

Your pool technician looks just a little different this year.
