Verdict
Pros & cons
Der Aiper Scuba SE ist ein kabelloser Bodenroboter auf Rollen für kleine Aufstellpools. Auf festem, ebenem Grund saugt er Sand und Steinchen zuverlässig vom Boden und ist mit einem Knopfdruck gestartet. Der Haken: Auf weicher Folie über unebenem Grund fährt er sich regelmäßig fest, und sein grobes 180-µm-Sieb lässt feinen Sand durch. Wände, Wasserlinie und Laub bleiben Handarbeit.
Pros
- Saugt Sand und kleine Steinchen auf ebenem Boden zuverlässig auf
- Kabellos und per Knopfdruck gestartet, ohne App-Einrichtung
- Mit 3,4 kg und großem Griff einhändig herauszuheben
- Filter in wenigen Handgriffen geöffnet und mit dem Schlauch ausgespült
- Parkt bei schwachem Akku an der Beckenwand
- Bürsten und Räder lassen sich selbst tauschen
Cons
- Fährt sich auf welliger Folie und an Gefälle regelmäßig fest
- Fahrmuster ohne Plan, einzelne Flächen bleiben ungereinigt
- 180-µm-Sieb lässt feinen Sand, Kalk und Algenreste durch
- Laub und schwere Brocken bleiben liegen
- Volle Ladung dauert 3 h 45 min bis 5 h, Ladebuchse ohne Kappe
WYBOT A171
Der WYBOT A1 ist ein günstiger Akku-Bodenroboter für flache Aufstellpools und ebene Becken. Sand, Insekten und feinen Schmutz holt er dank Sieb und Filterschwamm zuverlässig vom Boden, bedient wird er ohne App über eine Taste. Der Haken: An Stufen, Folienfalten und Schrägen über 15° bleibt er hängen, Wände und Wasserlinie reinigt er nicht, und der Akku hält teils nur eine Stunde.
Pros
- Nimmt Sand, Insekten und feinen Schmutz auf ebenem Boden zuverlässig auf
- Zusätzlicher Filterschwamm hält feine Schwebeteilchen und Pollen zurück
- Saugt an der Wand einige Sekunden mit voller Kraft nach
- Bedienung ohne App über eine Taste, Zyklus-Timer mit vier Stufen
- Kabellos und mit 3,5 kg leicht, Wasserauslass beim Herausheben
- Parkt am Ende des Laufs selbst an der Beckenwand
Cons
- Bleibt an Stufen, Folienfalten und Schrägen über 15° hängen
- Akku hält im Alltag teils nur rund eine Stunde statt 120 min
- Keine Bürsten, schwerer Sand und grobes Laub bleiben teils liegen
- Kleiner Filterkorb, bei starker Verschmutzung Leeren zwischendurch nötig
- Anleitung erklärt den Zyklus-Timer nur knapp
