New Mega-Pool Vacuum Signals Your Superiority to Neighbors' Filtration Systems

This Aiper Scuba S1 Pro is basically a highly caffeinated robot that swims through your expensive resort pool, promising to scrub algae and live leaves out of existence. Every newly-minted expat in Pescadero is buying six because it’s the only way to prove they aren't like the poor souls who still vacuum by hand. It’s a status symbol that screams, 'Yes, my tropical retirement is so flawless, even my pool needs military-grade automation.' However, attempting to use its advanced infrared sensors to navigate the murky, salt-encrusted, and occasional goat-induced debris field of a true Baja pool is highly likely to end with a catastrophic, wet seizure of the motor.
