The addition of the fine filter floss inner basket makes it an even better cleaner for desert environments that are constantly dealing with fine silt. I think it\u2019s reasonably priced at $630 and if you don\u2019t need the fine filter basket you can still buy the 2024 model for $499, which is an even better deal.<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:50%\">\n<div style=\"height:15px\" aria-hidden=\"true\"

reason it didn\u2019t take the top spot from the Aiper S1 was that it struggled a bit with the sloped floor of my pool which caused it to have lower than average wall coverage, but for a flat bottom pool, I think the Hydro 3S would be hard to beat.<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:50%\">\n<div
