A low cost way to keep a flat above-ground pool floor clean without a booster pump or charging. It does not climb walls, has no timer, and its short cycle means big jobs need restarts. Buy it for floor debris in a small above-ground pool, not for walls or silt.

The lowest priced robot here, with a camera based dirt hunting mode and a finer filter than most budget cordless models. Testing was mixed: EFTM liked the cleaning but found most modes run until the battery is nearly flat, and The Pool Nerd disliked the standard C2's suction and limited timer. Note that WYBOT had a 2026 battery recall on two older models.

What reviewers found
Dolphin E10
- Poolbots (retailer review): In their test it cleaned floors reasonably well with an easy basket, but it does not clean walls or the waterline, has no scheduler, tangles easily, and let silt and sand cloud the water. Source
WYBOT C2 Vision
- EFTM (86%): Dirt hunting mode found a placed dirt pile within 20 minutes and the pool looked very clean, but most modes ran until the battery was nearly flat, shallow steps stopped it, and the app had account and translation quirks. Source
- The Pool Nerd: Tested the standard C2, not the Vision: weaker suction than a corded Dolphin, a weekly timer capped at 180 minutes total in floor mode, and an Android login error. Rated Pool Nerd Disapproved. Source
