I see lots of reviews from people who have their favorite bots. This one will be on many of those lists. The app is a bit quirky and could use some tweaking to keep it stable (don't try to use it while the bot is running - it popping in and out of BT range causes the app to crash a lot). Basic setup is pretty easy and the bot works great in my 9'x18'x54" pool. It climbs the walls well and cleans rather effectively. The fine filter also works well, but has to be used with a specific mode, just for the floor. That said, it does a great job picking up the finest of particles and the catch bin and fine filter are both easy to clean for reuse. The charge port cap twists on and off with a quarter turn, and feels weird, but stays snug and keeps the terminals dry. The tether keeping the cap on broke off in the first week of use, but it is not a big deal. The bot moves randomly, but in the 65-70 minutes it runs is typically able to get the entire floor. It also moves the water around quite well so it is a good time to add any chemicals that required circulation. Read more

I've had to opportunity to test a couple of different cordless pool cleaners recently. My existing pool cleaner was a corded 12-year-old Polaris P945 that generally worked well for me but I thought I could do without the cord. The Wybot C2 Vision AI was the most affordable option next to its kindred Wybot C1. I found the Wybot C1 to be a basic but effective pool cleaner. I was interested to see how the Wybot C2 Vision would improve on it. First off, this pool cleaner is so much smaller and (more importantly) lighter than the much bigger premium robots available today. At about 17lbs it's about half the weight of its bulkier competition. The Wybot C2 Vision should be no problem for most people to carry, move around, and lift out of the pool. These cordless robots are typically more heavy -- probably because of the batteries and all the fancy gadgetry the incorporate -- but I would say he Wybot C2 was comparable to my P945 in terms of weight. I found it very manageable and much more easy and comfortable to move around. The Wybot C2 doesn't come with its own stand. Charging is performed via a power block which plugs into a connector on the top of the cleaner. This is one of the major differences between this robot and the more premium alternatives that now feature wireless charging. You'll need to make sure that the charging port is tightly sealed before every use. Operation is very basic. I installed the app, and functionality is pretty basic as it is with all the other cordless cleaners I've tried. However, these apps do help get the most of your cleaner. You can more easily select your cleaning modes, including modes that cannot be accessed any other way. You can also choose from a number of different cleaning patterns that may work best in your pool. Being used to my corded cleaner, I threw the robot into the pool before selecting a clean mode. I had to fish it back out of the pool again to pre-select its cleaning mode. Once under water, WiFi won't work so there's no controlling the robot from the app when submerged. This is the same for all cordless cleaners that don't have an in-pool communication accessory (usually sold separately). My pool is a fairly small 12' x 24' rectangular inground. The walls of my pool leading to the deep end are sloped inwards. This seems to be a characteristic that seems to confuse many of the other cordless robots I've tried. The Wybot C2 did a good job of cleaning the floor of my pool. It mostly stuck to its patterns, although its behaviour on the slopes was inconsistent. Sometimes it simply climbed them with no troubles, while other times it seemed to treat them almost like a wall. However, by the time it completed it's cleaning run, there was nothing left visible on the floor of my pool. I have to say that the Wybot C2 cleaned the floor of my pool as well as any other cleaner I tested -- premium or otherwise. Wall cleaning was a mixed bag. For some reason, the robot would take its time climbing the wall and by the time it reached the water line it would scrub for about 1 second before blasting some exhaust water and stopping. Sometimes it would lower itself down the wall (as it should) to move the next spot, while other times it would just free-fall to the floor. There were a couple times where it spent a few seconds scrubbing the water line, but most of the time it was a quick scrub, followed by the exhaust, and a return to the bottom again. It spent way more time climbing the walls and navigating than actually cleaning. I included a video that demonstrates this behaviour. This robot also has very easy access to its basket through the door on the top of the robot. One surprising feature for a robot of this value is that it also includes an ultra-fine filter to capture really small debris. Like many other cleaners, the basket has a solid bottom with an inlet hole. This makes rinsing the bottom of the basket and getting the debris at the bottom of the basket a little harder because you can only spray down into the basket from the top. Not a big deal but it did take longer to clean out the basket. I can't speak for the reliability or longevity of the Wybot C2 as I have only used it for a little while. However, I have to say that, and the end of the day, the Wybot C2 did as good a job cleaning my pool as any of the other cleaners I've tried. The others may look fancier, and include some fancier features, but if you just want something to collect the debris on the floor of your pool and maybe scrub your waterline once-in-a-while, the Wybot C2 gets the job done. When you look at it that way, it becomes very hard to justify the price difference with some of the more premium cleaners. I have to say that so far the "intelligence" in these smart cleaners seem to be more of a hindrance than an aid. My "dumb" Polaris P945 powers through my pool and doesn't care about slopes -- it cleans the floor whether it's flat or a slope and keeps going until it hits a wall. It still gets the job done faster than any of these smart cordless cleaners. If you don't have a cleaner then you really should get something. Robot cleaners do a great job and can save you a ton of time better spent on other things. You don't have the break the bank to get a clean pool. Robots like the Wybot C2 can get the job done even without all the bells and whistles of the fancier robots. However, the Wybot C2 bring along some nice premium features too at a much lower cost point. Plus, you can actually lift it without straining your back. Read more

Save your money and try a different model or even brand. My biggest regret is not sending it back sooner. This thing picks up dirt but when you pull it out of the water, all of the dirt falls right back in because the rubber seals don’t keep the dirt in the basket. It’s the most annoying thing. I have to constantly re insert the rubber seals because they don’t stay in place or fold I. A position where they don’t seal letting the debris from the basket come right back out. Read more

I rarely return items to Amazon, but this time it was Required. This is a piece of junk. Didn't clean pool. Flipped around in one spot. None of the programs worked. Look at their product videos -- they're Animations, not live video. That's because this product does NOT work. Waste of time and effort. Classic case of bait and switch. Caveat emptor. Read more

Robot easy to use but hard to put bag back in but it does clean great Read more

Love this sweeper. It is so easy to use and to get out of the pool. Love the fact that it has a camera to see the debris as my old unit did not and I would have a lot of debris in the middle of my pool that I would have to hand vacuum out. I clean it after each use and use it twice a day since I have a large pool once using the camera and once using the wall cleaning feature. Its great to have so many options, I do wish it could be reprogramed while it is under water but understand why it cant. So far I love everything about it. Read more

Having recently welcomed the Wybot C2 Vision into my pool maintenance routine for my 15x30 ft inground pool, I have to say, I'm genuinely delighted with its performance! Honestly, I think it holds its own remarkably well against the more expensive S2 Vision model. This little robot truly excels at its job. My go-to is the standard setting, which diligently scrubs the entire pool – floor, walls, and even the waterline – all on a single charge that lasts a good few hours. Once it's done, it takes just a couple of hours to power back up, ready for its next dip. I've experimented with the "dirt hunter" mode a few times, and it lives up to its name, efficiently targeting and cleaning those stubborn dirty spots on the pool floor. While it comes with an ultrafine filter, which does an excellent job, I've actually found the standard filter basket more than sufficient; it manages to snag everything from fine sand to larger debris. When it comes to connectivity, linking the Wybot to its app is straightforward. Just a quick tip: you'll need to make any adjustments or schedule cleanings before it gets wet, as the app won't connect once it's submerged. Simply hold the power button until the lights come on, and it syncs right up without a hitch. This machine is a cleaning powerhouse. I've even borrowed it for a larger 20x40 ft inground pool, and its battery life comfortably handles both the walls and floor. Running it daily keeps my pool pristine with minimal effort from me. Its navigation might seem a bit… whimsical at times – it definitely looks like it's just meandering or pondering its next move – but somehow, it still manages to cover every single spot. The app is handy for switching modes or setting schedules, even if it's not the most polished interface. Between the 2024 and 2025 models, I honestly haven't noticed any significant differences. Be prepared for a bit of a workout when pulling it out of the water, as it's not exactly light. And yes, it does come with a considerable price tag. However, despite these minor points, if you're aiming to simplify your pool maintenance and truly want something that tackles the walls, this robot delivers. I'm incredibly pleased with this pool cleaner and would wholeheartedly suggest it to anyone looking to make their pool chores a whole lot easier! Read more

This pool robot vac is actually really cool. It is in the high end price range but definitely more affordable than others, and it has some interesting differences to other ones. The biggest being that this has a built-in camera feature so it doesn't rely on algorithm mapping the way some others do (like the roomba style where it hits a wall, turns, then keeps going until it hits another wall, and maps the area that way). It uses the camera data to plan a route that makes sense, which allows it to be more efficient in cleaning and not miss spots. This works really well actually and has kept my backyard pool consistently clean without my having to pick up any slack. It also did a good job along the walls of my pool, though altogether my pool is small-ish and simple in design. The battery did last a good three hours, which was enough time to do a full clean. The charging is via brick that plugs in on top of the machine, so in this detail you need to make absolutely certain the cover for the charging point is tightly sealed before putting the robot to use in the pool, so that's an important factor to keep in mind versus other high end models (which mostly do wireless charging now). This does charge fast though, and it is a smaller unit than most so a lot lighter to lift and drop in, which may well be a major feature for those with less strength or mobility versus other ones. The app is super easy to use and getting this going once I installed the app took no time at all. One of the better UI I've tried. The catch basin is decently sized and easy to clean out, and it has a HEPA filter slot and Turbo feature to pick up fine particles and really get a deep clean. This is ultimately a really good robo vac at this price point and offers a nice balance between function and premium features. Read more
