nichro Cordless Pool Vacuum 18 GPM — 60min Runtime, 3-Head Handheld Cleaner (Above-Ground & Inground)

The nichro 2026 upgraded cordless pool vacuum is a handheld cleaner that delivers up to 18 GPM suction with three interchangeable heads and a 60-minute runtime for quick, tool-free pool, spa, and hot tub maintenance.

Designed to replace bulky, tethered cleaners for routine maintenance, this lightweight rechargeable unit combines strong suction, a larger debris chamber, and dual mesh filters to capture both coarse leaves and fine sand. It works for above-ground pools, inground pools, spas, and hot tubs and ships with a 1.45 m extension pole so you can clean without bending or wading.

How powerful is the suction and what debris can it handle?

The 2026 model produces up to 18 GPM (about 3800 L/H) and peak suction around 36.8 kPa, giving it the pull needed to lift sand, silt, leaves, and small pebbles. The main nozzle clears larger items while the wide brush and corner head manage fine sediments and edges.

• Maximum flow: 18 GPM / 3800 L/hour
• Peak suction: ~36.8 kPa for stubborn dirt
• Handles sand, leaves, small twigs, acorns, pebbles, and silt
• Three heads let you switch between wide brushing, tight corners, and standard suction

How long does the battery last and how do you charge it?

This vacuum packs a 5000 mAh rechargeable battery that supports up to 60 minutes of cleaning on a full charge, suitable for most routine sessions. It uses a slow 3-hour charging routine intended to preserve long-term battery health.

• Battery: 5000 mAh lithium cell
• Runtime: up to 60 minutes at normal suction settings
• Charging: 3-hour slow-charge cycle for extended battery life
• Battery protection circuitry prevents overcharge and prolongs lifespan

What cleaning heads and filters are included, and how do they help?

The package includes a wide brush head, a mini corner head for steps and tight spots, and the built-in standard suction nozzle on the main unit. The upgraded, larger debris chamber reduces emptying frequency and two reusable mesh bags (300 and 500 mesh) capture coarse and fine particles for clearer water.

• Larger debris chamber holds more leaves and dirt between empties
• Included 300-mesh and 500-mesh reusable filters for varied particle sizes

How easy is it to use and store this vacuum?

The unit is cordless and lightweight, designed for one-handed operation and simple assembly with the supplied 1.45 m extension pole so you can reach the pool floor and walls without getting in. The handheld format and removable filters make rinsing and storage straightforward.

• Cordless handheld design for tangle-free cleaning
• Included 1.45 m extension pole for comfortable reach
• Tool-free head swaps and quick-release debris chamber
