Our Robot Pool Vacuum Tests Show Why Suction Power Matters Less Than You Think
If you use a robotic pool cleaner every day as I do, you know what matters. Getting as much debris out of the pool as possible is the goal, but pure suction power — quantified as gallons of pool water sucked through the machine per hour — takes a back seat to efficiency.
An efficient robot pool vacuum doesn’t just pick up debris with stronger suction; it does so strategically, so your pool is cleaned faster and you use less battery. When you’re ready to cool off in the pool — like, now — you want the fastest possible cleaning.
This is the first year we’ve tested robots with high-functioning AI, giving them the ability to detect debris using cameras and sensors, change course and suck it up into the basket. These advanced features have upended the traditional formula for robot pool cleaner proficiency (suction power plus battery life).
