During the Summertime, there’s no better way to enjoy the outdoors than relaxing on a pool lounger. There’s nothing like the feeling of laying back on a pool lounger and enjoying the tranquility of the water while sunbathing. When choosing a new pool lounger for your pool, you shouldn’t just pick the first pool lounger you come across. Since lower-end loungers are typically made of cheaper materials, they can easily become too hot to touch after sitting in the sun for a few hours, not to mention they can get permanently damaged after just some months of use. For a pool lounger that’s built with both comfort and durability in mind, it doesn’t get much better than the PoolCandy Splash Runner Pro 2.0.
The PoolCandy Splash Runner Pro 2.0 is a battery-powered motorized luxury pool lounger which features a wide-body inflatable raft that can hold up to 350 pounds while also coming equipped with dual 66-watt motors integrated with 3-blade propellers that deliver great torque and speed to propel it in any direction. It also integrates dual push-button 360º controls, along with a high backrest, a reinforced lower-back support and a headrest that offer you the utmost comfort. Plus, it also has a built-in cup holder that keeps your drink within arm’s reach, plus a phone holder for storing your smartphone and staying connected.
Designed to elevate your relaxation time in the pool, this motorized pool lounger gives you a comfy and stylish way to enjoy your pool days throughout the Summer.
Now, let’s have a more detailed look at the PoolCandy Splash Runner Pro 2.0 and see exactly how this motorized luxury pool lounger is designed to work.
DESIGN & SPECS
Starting with the lounger’s size, this motorized pool lounger comes at a fairly large size, as its body measures exactly 66 inches long by 43 inches wide, so even relatively tall people can lounge on it comfortably. Plus, the lounger is also noticeably lightweight, which makes it easy to get it in and out of the pool.

The PoolCandy Splash Runner Pro 2.0 also sports a cool pool-themed design that gives a sense of “Summer-vibes”. The lounger’s body comes in a Light Blue color with a White color accent for its top side.
More importantly, this motorized luxury pool lounger also packs a very durable construction, as its wide-body inflatable raft is built of a highly durable 0.35mm PVC thermoplastic material, making it capable of holding up to 350 lbs. (158.7 kg), all while still being capable of gliding at great speed across the pool.

What’s more is that its wide raft body also features a high backrest, a reinforced lower-back support and a headrest that allow you to lounge on it quite comfortably for a few hours, even if you happen to fall asleep in it!
For its movement while floating in the water, PoolCandy Splash Runner Pro 2.0 comes equipped with a set of powerful 66-watt motors integrated with 3-blade propellers that deliver great torque to propel it in any direction at a cruising speed of about 3 miles per hour.

The pool lounger’s dual 3-blade propellers are fully enclosed behind a protective safety grill, which ensures everyone’s safety in the pool, not only for its user, but particularly for anyone else that may be swimming around or under the lounger. That goes especially mainly for young kids and pets.
Then, for controlling the lounger’s floating direction, the Splash Runner Pro 2.0 comes integrated with a set built-in rotating push-button 360º handle controls (one on each arm rest) that allow you to effortlessly glide, twirl, and move it in any direction, whether that’s forward, backwards, or even left and right.

Best of all, this pool lounger also features a built-in cup holder integrated on its right arm rest in which you can keep your favorite drink of choice within arm’s reach, along with a built-in phone holder integrated on its left arm rest where you can safely store away your smartphone and have it close by if necessary while you’re relaxing in the pool.

SET UP / INSTALLATION
When it comes to the pool lounger’s assembly, know that its whole set-up process can be done within just a few minutes and no tools are required, as this lounger features improved screw type electrical connections for its battery and motor sections (in comparison to the original PoolCandy lounger model). This essentially makes it easy to assemble and disassemble at any time.
You simply have to inflate it by using either an electric pump or alternatively a manual pump. Once that’s done, all there’s left to do is to attach its electrical components to the lounger’s body, and then just get it into the pool.
BATTERY & BATTERY LIFE
For powering up its dual 66-watt motors, the PoolCandy Splash Runner Pro 2.0 requires a total of 16 D-cell batteries (eight for each of its motors), working with both alkaline and Ni-MH rechargeable batteries, so choose whichever you prefer.
Still, we’d obviously recommend that you’d go with rechargeable batteries to save some money.
FINAL THOUGHTS
All in all, this motorized luxury pool lounger gives you a nice, comfortable way to relax in the pool, whether that’s at home or even while you’re on vacations at a resort or a hotel with a pool.
