Better than the Seauto Seal! Smonet CR6 Review
Vložit
- čas přidán 2. 07. 2024
- The Smonet CR6 is a new cleaner for the year 2024. It's a cleaner that looks very similar to the Seauto Crab or Seal of 2024. They are however, two different cleaners.
The difference here, is that this Smonet CR6 INCLUDES the physical option of changing cleaning modes on the cleaner itself. You can select between three different cleaning modes: Floors, Walls, or All Cover Mode. The CR6 will clean the floors, walls and waterline of your pool. One of the best valued cleaners on the market right now!
You can pick one up on my link below!

I love the way it floats back down from the waterline, I bet that saves a lot of battery. Can't wait for mine to come on Friday.
While it doesn’t have an ultra-fine filter, I’d bet the same “hack” (I hate saying that) would work here as it does for other vacuums… stick a bunch of cotton balls in the basket and they latch onto algae really well.
Love your videos!! Do you think this will work with a pool with “hopper” deep end? If not what would be the best option?
As long as the hopper isn't too deep it should. I've heard some people say for more deeper parts of their pool it struggles.
@@imdefinitelydavid thank you
Ok thanks
David
I have the chance to buy the smoker cr60 pro or the niya sonar 50 for similar price, niya is about 50 dollars more.
What would you do?
I am pretty sure the new smonet can't change settings without going into app.
Also niya looks like better way to open filter basket. Not sure if that's it?
Wanted older seauto seal but none around
I prefer the Niya/Seal over the Smonet. The less annoying debris basket alone is worth the extra 50 I'd say.
Thanks david
I find that these cleaners have difficulty navigating from the deep end to the shallow end due to issues with the ramps. They seem to mistake the upward slope for a wall and remain in the deep end.
I had this issue with AIPER seagul pro, so it is going back and ordered the Smonet. Hopefully it works better because the AIPER was awful in my pool. It's $100 cheaper too so worth trying.
Do you think it would be good for dog fur? Black lab in pool daily. We have pool serviced weekly but need something in between
For in between a service, I'd totally go with an automatic surface skimmer instead. It'll pick up the dog hair before it sinks down and would be easier to empty and put back in
I LUV my surface skimmer and I have pugs with tons of fur! We always put them in and the skimmer is awesome cleaning it up👏.
What would be a good plug-and-play for a 52 by 24 round vinyl pool
For vinyl lined pools I'd stay away from aggressive scrubbers. I'm assuming you want it cordless.
Some good plug and play cleaners that should be safe for vinyl pools are the Polaris Freedom or the Aiper Scuba S1.
@@imdefinitelydaviddo you think this pool cleaner will work well for a vinyl pool with a slope to a 7’ deep end??
I have the original seauto seal version but has no app connectivity and I can’t change the cleaning modes without the app. Probably going to return it because I don’t really need the sides cleaned as much as the floor. Honestly just I big disappointment especially for this price point.
Yes, the 2024 model Seal out of the box is a downgrade compared to last years model which they unfortunately discontinued.
If however, you do, like in general how that Seal moves and cleans, take a look at the Smonet CR6. Same cleaner, different brand but out of the box, YES you can change modes on the physical cleaner. I prefer then Smonet over the Seal.
@@imdefinitelydavid you are wrong. the CR6 requires the app to change modes.
The CR6 in this video?
Strange, as you can see, in the video I physically change the cleaner and modes. I've never downloaded their app or used it. Unless they released a new version and got rid of it...
Thanks for the info. I was about to pull the trigger on a seauto bc of the good reviews but have been so confused on the different models and names of identical cleaners with different branding
Yes, so many brands of the same cleaner. It gets very confusing.
Is there a difference between the blue and grey models? I ordered the grey since it would come faster and my pool is getting messy after my aquabot quit working.
The grey one they call the Seal/Crab. Some people have reported that out of the box the grey one doesn't have the option of multiple cleaning modes(myself included) while others reported that they do get the extra modes on their cleaners.
@@imdefinitelydavid There is so much confusion because there are apparently 2 different grey models. I am not sure but i noticed the blue version had a $100 off coupon so ordered it and will return the grey. Also the grey model listing suddenly is gone.
Yeah it's confusing. So many different listings and prices for the same cleaner but different names.
@@imdefinitelydavid They also keep adding and removing the coupons, and even the listings themselves. I sent them a message asking about the grey vs blue cr6. What a mess.
Well what seauto did was sell their cleaner to brands and those brands market the cleaner as their own and can set the prices. The cleaner itself is great, but all the brand stuff is confusing and annoying.
yoooo David me again, have you still gotten interest in the Cosmy?
