AIPER Seagull Pro Review (2026)
Cordless power meets wall cleaning. A genuine upgrade.
The AIPER Seagull Pro is what the Seagull SE wishes it could do: cordless operation plus wall climbing. The 120-minute battery handles most above-ground and small in-ground pools in one charge. If you love the cord-free experience but need wall cleaning, this is the pick.

Full Review
The biggest limitation of the AIPER Seagull SE (the budget model) is that it cleans floors only. The Seagull Pro fixes that — it climbs walls while staying fully cordless. That combination is genuinely rare in the market.
In our testing, the Pro's wall climbing was effective on smooth above-ground pool walls and fiberglass in-ground surfaces. On rough plaster or textured gunite, it struggled slightly with traction on steep angles — a common limitation of cordless robots that lack the continuous power delivery of a corded unit.
The 120-minute runtime extends the usable pool size significantly compared to the SE's 90 minutes. We covered a 22,000-gallon rectangular pool (including walls) in a single charge with about 8 minutes remaining.
The 1-year warranty is the main concession compared to Dolphin's 2-year coverage. AIPER's customer service has improved notably in 2025-2026, but long-term reliability data on this specific model is thinner than the established brands.
Who It's For
Above-ground pool owners who want cord-free operation AND wall cleaning. Also works for smooth fiberglass in-ground pools up to 22,000 gal.
Large in-ground pool owners. Anyone with rough plaster surfaces. Those who need long-term reliability with deep service support.
