Pool cleaning companies should be worried for a surprisingly affordable -and efficient- robotic alternative is making quite an impression on pool owners, worldwide.
Say hello to iRobot’s selection of pool cleaning robots: the Verro 300 and 600. Both use the same fine filter bag to pick up and trap dirt and debris plus algae, bacteria and debris as small as 2 microns. These devices make it possible for pool owners to clean their whole pool, from floor to waterline, in roughly an hour… with the touch of a button.
The Verro is basically a “drop in the water and forget” device. You plug it in a standard (outdoors) electrical outlet and gently drop it into your pool. Then, you let it go to work against whatever shouldn’t be in your pool, wether you see it or not.
Technically speaking, roller brushes scrub pool surfaces while a powerful vacuum and self-contained filtration system assist in the cleanup process. It works so well that it’ll even reduce the run times of your pool’s filtration system -and- improve the distribution of chemicals and temperature. Needless to say you’ll love bathing in this much cleaner water.
Compared to other pool cleaners, this one really hits the bullseye. The fact you can let it do the dirty work for you is amazing enough but the quality of the cleanup it provides set it in a class all by itself. Even in the deeper end of you pool, this robotic marvel easily climbs up walls (yep, it’s a lot of fun to watch) and therefore cleans the pool floor -and- all sides.
When you empty the fine filter bag from all the debris the Verro gathered, hose it down a bit and then, make sure to throw it in your washing machine to make it even cleaner (read: like new). Ideally, you should get yourself a second fine filter bag, for about 50$.

Considering how much it costs to have the “pool boy” come and clean things up, the Verro 300 at 699$ and the Verro 600 (which scrubs surfaces) at 1,099$ mean that your investment will likely pay for itself in about 6 to 10 weeks.
If you’re used to cleaning your pool by yourself, consider that using the iRobot Verro will help you reclaim at least two hours a week which you can spend doing all the other “interesting” things you want to do.
Overall, it’s a wonderful new way to cut back on the pool-related chores while still diving into pristine pool water.
