So it's winter here but I've setup and tested this pool cleaner in the house and it is very impressive. It is heavier than expected but this can be explained by the build quality which is very very good.For me, this pool cleaner is replacing an older model with the two key improvements being the extended battery life and the ability to program/control the cleaner via an easy to use app. I know my plan - I'll program the cleaner to do it's cleaning thing a few times a day and charge it up either every, or every other night depending on how long I program it to run. I'm really pleased with the device and can't wait to open the pool.I'll cover a bit of the pros....- The rated cleaning ability (suction, filters, etc.) are all above average for the price point.- You can personalize and program a lot, not just the timing.... you can choose to clear the bottom of the pool, walls, even the water line in a single cleaning session - from there you can activate a "turbo" mode!- The run time is very good at 180 minutes with a 3-hour charge (I'll set mine up for three 50-minute sessions a day)- Cleaning is super easy, pop the top and wash out the filtersCons?- Well it is a bit busy and it would be nice to have a longer run time... but these are not really cons.Happy to recommend, this is an impressive device and is very good value compared to similar models.

The WYBOT C2 Robotic Pool Cleaner makes pool maintenance a whole lot easier. It’s cordless, so no messy cables, and it’s surprisingly lightweight for something that does so much. Setup is simple—just charge it, drop it in, and let it do its thing. The app is a nice bonus, letting you pick different cleaning modes and schedules so you don’t have to think about it. Just remember to select your mode while it’s still on land.Suction power is strong, and the dual filters handle everything from leaves to fine dirt. Cleaning the filters is quick—pop the top, pull them out, and rinse. It follows a smart path instead of bouncing around randomly, so it covers the pool efficiently. It also climbs walls and scrubs the waterline, which saves me from having to do it manually.The battery lasts about three hours, plenty for a full cleaning cycle. It has no trouble moving over drains or different surfaces like tile and PVC. The LED battery indicators are useful since they take the guesswork out of when it needs a charge.Overall, it does what I need without much effort on my part. If you want a pool cleaner that actually follows a plan and doesn’t require babysitting, this one does the job.

As a pool owner, I’m always on the lookout for ways to keep my pool clean with minimal effort. When I came across the WYBOT C2 Robotic Pool Cleaner, I was intrigued by its promise of powerful suction, smart navigation, and cordless convenience. After putting it through its paces, I can confidently say that this cleaner delivers on its promises.The WYBOT C2 arrived well-packaged, and I was immediately impressed by its sleek and modern design. The setup process was straightforward—charge it up, download the app, and place it in the pool. The app walks you through the pairing process, and within minutes, it was ready to go.Once in the water, the cleaner got to work right away. One of the standout features is its smart navigation system. Unlike random-pattern cleaners, this one follows an S-shaped path on the pool floor and an N-shaped path for wall climbing, ensuring full coverage. It seamlessly moves over drains and different pool surfaces, including tile and PVC, without getting stuck.The dual filtration system is another highlight. It effectively captures fine debris and larger particles like leaves, making a noticeable difference in my pool’s clarity. Emptying and rinsing the filter is incredibly easy—just pop open the top covers, remove the filter baskets, and rinse them off.Battery life is impressive at 180 minutes, covering my 1,500 sq. ft. pool in one go. The LED indicators provide a clear battery status, ensuring I never get caught off guard mid-clean.The ability to control the cleaner via an app is a great feature. I can schedule cleanings, choose from multiple modes (Floor Only, Wall Only, Waterline Only, etc.), and monitor progress remotely. One thing to note—modes must be set while the cleaner is out of the water, but once set, it runs flawlessly.Pros & ConsPros:+Cordless Design – No tangled cables or complicated setup.+Strong Suction Power – Picks up dirt, sand, leaves, and other debris efficiently.+Smart Navigation – Covers every inch of the pool methodically.+Long Battery Life – Cleans for up to 180 minutes on a single charge.+Easy Maintenance – The filter is simple to remove and clean.+App Integration – Allows scheduling and customization for a hands-free experience.Cons:-Charging Time – Takes around 4-5 hours to fully charge.-Wall Climbing Consistency – Sometimes struggles on extra smooth surfaces.-Heavy Lifting – At 15 lbs, it’s not the lightest cleaner to remove from the pool.-App Connectivity – Occasionally disconnects, though it reconnects quickly.The WYBOT C2 Robotic Pool Cleaner is a powerful, efficient, and convenient solution for pool maintenance.

Neat robot. I can see it working better on larger pools if you have two robots, it’s quite slow with just one.But it climbs and swims and traverses the pool easily, and doesn’t really leave anything behind so it IS effective, just slow.

Like all robotic pool cleaners, how good of a job it does for you depends nearly entirely the size of your pool, and how many obstacles and/or alcoves the cleaner has to contend with.And with that said, I think this cleaner will perform best in pools that are very basic shape-wise, and doesn’t have any strange obstacles or an area that might trap it. Also, I did find that this cleaner does climb the walls better than most robotic cleaners. However, you may still need to do a quick one-minute once-around with your pool brush to push the wall dirt/dust to the floor.The cleaner itself appears to be made well. There isn’t anything about it that stood out to me as problematic quality-wise. I didn’t see anything that I imagined would crack or easily break. So, I am happy with this cleaner’s overall quality. Also, though it’s not important, this robotic cleaner even looks like a cool little black tank too. It’s actually sorta entertaining to watch it make its way around your pool.Charging this cleaner takes a few hours, and it will run for two to three hours on a full charge. So, while I’m not impressed by the run time on a full charge, I’m not aggravated by it either. However, I do think there’s a bit of room for improvement there.Lastly, I think this is an excellent robotic cleaner overall. Consequently, I think that, like me, you will be pretty satisfied with this cleaner. It does an admirable job of keeping my pool clean, so I think there’s an excellent chance that it will do a satisfactory job of cleaning your pool too.If you have any questions about this WYBOT C2 robotic pool cleaner, please feel free to ask, and I'll try my best to answer. I hope you found this review helpful.

Having been a user for years of suction side pool cleaners, we decided to move on to robotic cleaners. What a difference!!This robotic cleaner really does a great job and it’s so easy to use. After fully charging it (about 3 hours or less) I set the mode to floor only, placed it in the pool, turned off our pool pump and watched it go! After about 2 hours, the bottom of our pool was completely clean! The only area it did not get were the steps.The robot never got stuck and the double filter picked up just about everything that was on the floor of the pool.Living in SC, our pool gets lots of debris including leaves and pine straw. All of it made its way into the filter basket.When the cleaner battery was depleted, the robot was at the side of the pool and easy to retrieve using my pool pole and the supplied hook.After removing the robot from the pool, it was easy to remove the basket and clean it and also rinse off the robot. Once I cleaned it, I recharged it and placed it in my outdoor waterproof storage chest so it’s ready for its next cleaning.Overall, I couldn’t be happier with the design and performance of this robot cleaner. I’ll never use a suction side cleaner again. This robot is a winner!

I've tested a ton of these robots, here's my bottom line: For high end robots, Beatbot is my favorite. They have a wide range of models with a wide range of features, but even the basic one is great. For mid range robots, it's a tie between this Wybot C2 and the Aiper Scuba S1. For budget an entry level (like small flat pools, or above ground pools), I like the Aiper Seagull or the Aiper SE.The Beatbots literally offer a hundred features, it's the most advanced tech I've ever seen in a pool accessory. However, I'm going to make an argument that the midgrade units like this Wybot have distinct advantages. This Wybot, for example, has one sensor in front, whereas the Beatbot has 30 sensors. That's extremely impressive, but 30 sensors means 30 additional things that could go wrong. Sure, all these robots have warranties, but you have to live without them for several weeks as they get repaired. So I think an argument can be made for a simpler robot.That's not to say that this Wybot lacks features. Let me highlight some of my favorite features:First, this Wybot has an extremely useful feature that's mostly new for 2025. Very few robots have it, I first saw it on BeatBot. The feature is, you can leave the robot in the water for up to a week, on one charge, and it automatically breaks up the cleaning cycle to do a little bit of cleaning every day. This is great for vacation, but you can use this every day too, depending on how much debris your pool gets. So for example it can clean 45 minutes per day, every other day, for a week.It also has the dual filter. That may sound trivial, I know that most people are hyper focused on things like battery life and app. But the basket is one of the first things I look at, because without a double filter it's going to leave behind sand, silt, and small debris. That's really the most consistent complaint I see about pool robots - it leaves behind the small debris. Well, the dual filter is designed to catch most of it.It's fast charging as well - just 3 hours to charge, with a run time of 3 hours.This is built really well - sturdy, and more importantly, a solid and simple design. Battery is great, motor is great, and suction is great.I will say that I think the Aiper does a better job with navigation and mapping. The entry level robots are just bump and go - they will not cover the entire pool area. This has a pattern it follows, which is pretty efficient. But the Aiper actually maps out your pool, similar to a Roomba. The newer Beatbots, however, use AI cameras to scan for debris and go straight to it, which is the most efficient.This Wybot does floor cleaning, wall cleaning, and waterline cleaning (meaning, the waterline around the edges). It does not skim the surface. Some of the Beatbots are 2-in-1 skimmers, or my recommendation is to get a solar skimmer separately - and basically leave it in the pool, never take it out except to empty it. Also, to my knowledge, no robot will navigate steps, although several are working on it.

As a pool owner who values both convenience and efficiency, I was excited to try the WYBOT C2 Robotic Pool Cleaner. This cordless, app-controlled cleaner promises powerful suction, smart navigation, and a hassle-free cleaning experience. After weeks of use, here’s my detailed and balanced review of this high-tech pool companion.The WYBOT C2 arrived in a well-packaged box, and I was immediately impressed by its sleek, futuristic design. The cordless feature is a game-changer, eliminating the hassle of tangled cords. The included dual filtration system, app control, and smart navigation capabilities made it clear that this cleaner is designed for efficiency and ease of use.Setting up the WYBOT C2 was straightforward. Simply charge it, download the app, and place it in the pool. The app guides you through the initial setup and pairing process.Once in the water, the cleaner gets to work immediately. The smart navigation ensures it covers every inch of the pool, including walls and the waterline. The app allows me to monitor progress and adjust settings remotely.Emptying the debris canister is quick and easy. The dual filtration system captures both fine and large debris, reducing the frequency of cleaning.The cleaner is made from high-quality, UV-resistant materials that withstand prolonged exposure to sunlight and pool chemicals. After weeks of use, it shows no signs of wear, and the battery life remains consistent.Minor Drawbacks:1. The 4-5 hour charging time might be a bit long for some users.2. At 15 pounds, the cleaner is a bit heavy to lift in and out of the pool.3. While the features and performance justify the cost, it’s a significant investment for some pool owners.The WYBOT C2 Robotic Pool Cleaner is a fantastic choice for anyone looking to simplify pool maintenance. Its cordless design, powerful suction, and smart navigation make it a standout option for inground pools. While the charging time and weight are minor drawbacks, its performance and convenience more than make up for them.Perfect For:- Pool owners who want a hassle-free cleaning solution.- Those with inground pools up to 1614 sq. ft.- Tech enthusiasts who appreciate smart app control and automation.Pro Tip: Use the app to schedule regular cleanings, ensuring your pool stays spotless with minimal effort. Store the cleaner in a shaded area to prolong battery life.

Have used my new cleaner a half-dozen times. Here are my initial pros/cons...Pros: Decent cost, no tangled cords, easy setup, easy cleanup, easy placement/retrieval, good job at covering the pool in "bottom" priority mode on a single charge.Cons: Needs more than a single charge to do walls and floor (~16x40), charge time is kind of slow (~2.5 hours), logic for wall cleaning seems to be a bit flaky.Would I buy it again: Yes
