This Intex above-ground pool cleaner is a steal at $75 — that's 65% off
With summer beating down our doors, many of us have already begun to think about what brand of sunscreen to buy for those glorious days spent poolside. If so, however, you may well be all too familiar with the less fun part of owning a pool? That's right: cleaning it. The good news is that this Intex Auto Pool Cleaner makes spontaneous splash time as easy as hitting a button — and it's on sale for 65% off — it's just $75 right now.
Note: This little guy is for above-ground pools. Why? It requires a filter pump with a relatively high flow rate, between 1,600 and 3,500 GPH. In-ground pools don't have that level of performance, but if you need something for an in-ground pool, we suggest the Aiper Pool Vac.
The Intex Auto Pool Cleaner works by sweeping the floor and capturing dirt and debris inside a net within the machine. It's easy to clean, too, so you can keep its performance tip-top. It comes with a 21-foot hose that attaches to your existing pool inlet. It also includes a skimmer basket, which will ensnare any floating nasties.
Don't just take our word for it — more than 6,600 fans have left it a perfect rating. "I have not even hooked up my vacuum yet this summer and my pool has been open a month. This 'robot,' as my kids like to call it, requires no assembly except for the outlet adapter for the hose. I have a 20-foot above-ground pool and now I can skim and vacuum from the bottom at the same time. My 'pool boy' time is so minimal now; I love it.... Very easy to clean also: Four quick latches, a few seconds with the garden hose, and its ready to go again," one of them raved.
Another said, "This cleaner works very well indeed! The quality of construction is solid and I foresee no issues with it lasting at least a few years. The case is made entirely of plastic with hard rubber wheels. The cleaner is easily able to pick up and retain sand particles, dirt and other debris, leaves, as well as hair. The filter screen is easy to clean, with just a garden hose. As with most above-ground swimming pools with vinyl liners, our pool has a few wrinkles in it on the bottom. The cleaner rolls right over them with no issues whatsoever."
