New Robotic Pool Cleaner Guarantees You're Better Than Your Neighbor's Algae Problem

This $1,200 electronic automaton is essentially an over-engineered, autonomous leaf-eater designed to scrub your Pescadero infinity pool while radiating the smug aura of sustainable domestic mastery. Every transient here thinks owning the Aiper means they have achieved a level of spiritual purity where they never have to manually scrape calcium deposits again. However, the precise, delicate infrared navigation sensors will guarantee a spectacular operational failure when faced with the omnipresent, slightly dusty debris of a Baja puddle-pool, likely resulting in a soggy, embarrassing electrical meltdown.
