context_page_description: An automated pool cleaner is a vacuum cleaner intended to collect debris and sediment from swimming pools with minimal human intervention. Popularly dubbed a "creepy-crawly", it is one of several types of swimming pool vacuum cleaners. Other major types are battery-powered or manually powered wands, which are generally used for smaller pools and hot tubs, and battery-powered, handheld/extended reach pool and spa vacuums. The latter is powered by rechargeable batteries and can be handheld attached to a telescopic pole used for extended reach. These are used for small to medium-sized pools, larger spas, and to spot clean larger pools.
