For wall and waterline work, look for explicit floor-wall-waterline coverage, active brushing, finish compatibility and navigation that varies climb locations. Strong traction is essential, but the cleaner also needs a controlled way to release and descend. Steps, ledges and sharp transitions remain separate challenges and may still require hand brushing.
Choose floor-only for simple debris pickup when manual wall brushing is acceptable. Choose wall-climbing for regular vertical coverage, and require explicit waterline capability when the scum line is a priority. Verify compatibility with the pool surface and transitions.
A waterline-capable robot climbs to the surface and uses programmed movement, brush contact, and water flow to spend time along the pool perimeter. Some designs move sideways or make repeated passes before descending. Results vary with tile or finish, residue type, pool shape, water level, and maintenance. Hardened scale and chemistry-related staining usually require treatment beyond ordinary robotic brushing.
