How to choose
Match runtime to pool size
Start from the coverage each maker gives: 861 sq.ft for the BRINBO, 860 sq.ft for the AIPER, 1,100 sq.ft for the WYBOT, 1000 Sq.ft for the GAMPLAE, and 850 sq.ft for the BUBLUE. Compare those figures with the pool in question, then check runtime: 90 minutes, 100 minutes, 130 minutes, over 120 minutes, and over 90 minutes in the same order. A larger pool needs a larger coverage figure to finish on one charge.
Suction, filters and self-parking
Suction figures differ: 1320GPH for the AIPER and 2280 GPH for the WYBOT, while the BRINBO, GAMPLAE, and BUBLUE describe dual motors or dual-layer filtration. Self-parking matters for retrieval: the AIPER, WYBOT, GAMPLAE, and BUBLUE park near the wall or edge when the battery runs low. Compare the stated suction, filter, and parking features against the pool before choosing.
Flat-bottom pools and retrieval
All five picks are cordless, so no cord trails through the water, and all five are made for above-ground pools. The BRINBO is made for above-ground and flat-bottom pools, and the AIPER is designed for flat above-ground pools. For retrieval, look for self-parking plus a light body: the AIPER weighs 7.5 lbs and the GAMPLAE weighs 6.9 lbs.
