    Just got my flipper in the mail yesterday. OMG Matt I just want to say thank you for the review. I have tried 4 different magnets and nothing worked this thing is great, especially for me. I have an in wall build so this makes cleaning a breeze. I had ring of algae that I just could not get to around the trim this does the trick Thanks again Matt

    One side has a standard velcro scrubby from the looks of it, the other is the blade.

    Cleans glass, cleans coralline, cleans diatoms, cleans stubborn green algae. This thing works great. I have three other more expensive magnet cleaners and they're all now overpriced algae clips. The Flipper is the only way to go... No, I don't work for the company :)
