OWR Pool · Coverage
“Cleans the pool” is not a precise specification.
Floor, walls, waterline, steps, ledges and surface are different jobs. Decide which zones you actually want automated before comparing brands.
Which missed zone still leaves you working?
If the walls stay clean, a simpler requirement can widen your choices.
Make wall cleaning mandatory rather than treating it as a feature bonus.
Require explicit waterline coverage if that ring is one of the chores you want gone.
General “wall cleaning” language may not tell you enough. Look for explicit geometry claims and verify them.
Geometry is where generic rankings become weak
Two robots can both publish wall and waterline cleaning while behaving differently around shelves, slopes, steps and shallow platforms. That is why OWR HOME keeps explicit platform or shallow-water claims separate from general full-coverage claims.
Coverage still has to fit the pool itself
A full-coverage feature list is irrelevant if the product does not support your pool type or published size/dimension limits. Compatibility comes first; feature comparison comes second.
