What reviewers found
Beatbot Sora 10
- The Pool Nerd: Lists it as an entry option with better build than no name robots, but notes a slow random path, no weekly timer, and basic mesh filtration. Source
- PCWorld: Picked up dirt and leaves and scrubbed walls and waterline credibly, collecting over 95% of test debris in about two hours, but missed all debris on the steps and sinks a few minutes after parking if not retrieved. Source
Wybot C2
- The Pool Nerd: Labeled Pool Nerd Disapproved. In an 8 x 20 ft pool it ran 180 min floor only but about 60 min in Turbo, needed about 3 h to recharge after each cycle, and its weekly timer caps total runtime at 180 min. Suction of 3,592 GPH trailed corded Dolphin rivals. The site prefers corded robots. Source
- Bob Vila: Named Best for Fine Debris in a hands on roundup; about 2 h of battery life against a 185 min table figure, with ratings of 4.8 for ease of use, 4.5 for performance and 4 for value. Source
