Also I regret to inform the maker of this product that saying "uhm" 217 times in a 3 minute video about your product makes me lose confidence in it .

Check out the description and/or assembly video closely and you'll see that includes options to capture what you're 'mowing' as well as a tube to actually syphon waste water out if you wish.

Not sure I'd buy one before I had a closer look at it in person, but I think it's a great idea. With a bit of fine tuning of the design I'd consider getting one. With the motor/pump so close to the end, it will be tricky to get into some of the tight spots where algae tends to set up. I'd also want to have a really close look at the quality of the seal for wiring the AC adapter into the handle. While it is a low voltage item, I still don't like messing with something in the water that has wires attached. I would most probably use it with the 9 volt battery only.
