WYBOT R1 Pool Vacuum for Above Ground Pool,Handheld Machine

This is my fourth robotic pool vacuum over the past 20 years. This product is the only one that I have found that will not get stuck at the bottom of my pool at the drain. I have a 25,000 gallon in ground pool and the bottom is very deep…It’s kind of shaped like a toilet bowl. Previous cleaners have always gotten stuck at the very bottom. This one will get stuck as well, but only for a couple of minutes, but then it detects that problem and floats up for a bit, and then comes back down to reposition itself. It will effortlessly go up and down the walls, but when I have it in this mode, it does get stuck on my stairs, so I don’t use this function. I have a strange configuration. If you keep it on the floor mode and just brush the sides of your pool and stairs this is exactly what you need. It will run for two hours. It takes three hours to charge. Picks up fine dirt/debris and leaves very well. It gets about 90% on the first try in my pool. I just grab my pool brush for any missed spots. Well, worth the money in my opinion. I’ve had it for about six months and no mechanical issues. Hopefully it will last another summer or more.

Amazing pool cleaner! My pool is pretty big and surrounded by trees, so I was worried it wouldn’t cover the whole area before the battery ran out—but it did! It picks up dirt and leaves really well. I run it every 3 days and it keeps the pool clean. I’ve used both modes—wall and floor—and switch between them depending on the day. It’s easy to use, not too heavy (I didn’t buy the carry handle and haven’t needed it), and the app works great. You can easily change the cleaning settings through it. It cleans the walls surprisingly well—not with the same pressure as a manual scrub, but it still gets the job done. Full charge takes around 3 hours. Highly recommend if you’re looking for something reliable and easy to manage.

non operational WYBOT that we purchased less than 3 months ago. After at least 5 full cleanings of our pool it now is not taking a charge as per the instruction manual and when powered (solid blue indicator on) then dropped into the pool it spurts some bubbles twice the starts flashing yellow. This has occurred 3 times over several days and needs resolution. Please note the WYBOT performed flawlessly in our 9 to 10K gallon irregular pool that is fully covered and screened in. After several customer service emails with the order ref info I get the following response: We are sorry that we cannot find the relevant information about the order based on the order number you provided, nor can we open the files or links you sent. Could you please provide your order invoice for our reference? Another submission got zero response. It’s now almost 2 weeks and hopefully they’ll accept my Amazon Prime credit card statement and the original invoice since the product appears to be dead in the water & requires replacement.

The product cleans fairly well but there's no pattern or program that allows it to be programed for specific area needs. Because of the size of my pool (2500 sq ft) entire pool never gets cleaned before the battery runs out. Find it necessary to charge/replace to cover other areas but never cleans the whole pool. It appears to be built fairly solid and easy to manage in/out of pool with included hook that attaches to the pool pole. Doesn't take long to charge and has variable cleaning options within the app. Does a good job cleaning up fine dirt and brushes sides. Don't recommend this for larger pools but think it's a good value for those that have smaller pools. Gave this item 4 stars because it works well but just didn't work for our pool size.

I would put this robot in pool every morning. Drink my coffee and watch it work. Does a good job on keeping the bottom clean. I also have used it to clean the bottom of pool with the pool cover on. Access to one corner and wait for it come back to that corner before battery runs out. And put a bag of shock in basket to disperse shock. Works great.

Love this cleaner , only had it 2 weeks and it fully cleans our 7700 gal Freeform pool fast, charge lasts about 90-120 min. One of the things I was worried about is if it picks lip small particles and dust , hell yes it does ! We have a pebble tech pool and we always feel the pebbles when we r in it and this thing picks up them all . I totally got rid of my Hayward pressure sweep and only drop this in when the pool is dirty like after a storm , I’m thinking I will only need it once a week in the summer as we have literally no debris at that time just dust and pebbles from the plaster . I was able to take my pool pump rpm from 3400 to 2800 now since I’m not powering the full time cleaner . Easier on the equipment and electricity bill. It climbs several levels of our stairs in the pool and all the way up the wall to the water line . So far so good - def recommend .

This is a great little robot. It does a great jod of scrubbing the sides of pool and water line...and it scrubs it hard. While it does a freat job picking up most things, its' basket IS NOT a micro filter. Fine particulates will simply blow out of the top. To pick this up you will need a robot with a micro filter or vacuum the pool manually. However, it will pick up a lot and definitelybkeep the sides of your pool clean saving you time scrubbing. I use this in addition to a Dolphin Premier because while the Dolphin is great it picking up micro particulates, it is not good at scrubbing the walls and waterline...its brush is just too slow and weak.

I have a kidney shaped 20,000 gallon pool with multiple long steps, benches and your standard shallow and bowl shaped deep end. This robot does an adequate job of removing leaves and fine dirt and debris from the bottom of the pool for the most part but it clearly struggles at doing a complete job. The photos show a nice crisp line between the missed dirty section and the cleaned section where it made a beeline from the shallow end where I dropped it in to the deep end, never bothering to return and finish the section it started from. I find myself switching cleaning patterns in the app and dropping it in from random locations around the pool trying to trick it into reaching all the dead spots. Also steps and benches will never be cleaned by this robot. If you can get a good deal it's a good cheap robot to do minimal cleaning. Otherwise spend a bit more and upgrade to something better. The biggest pro is that it's very easy to clean. It's also very good at sucking up both large leaves and fine debris when it can get to them.
