MOVA
Up to three
All robot pool cleaners. Every figure below is placed against the whole class, so a gap can be read against how much the class itself varies.
The conditions each robot was assessed against, side by side. Rows marked in gold are where these machines genuinely differ.
| Condition | AquaSense 2 Pro | MOVA Rover X10 |
|---|---|---|
| Pool type | ||
| In-ground | GoodDesigned for in-ground pools with standard plumbing and return configurations. | GoodAll four tests ran in in-ground pools, including one review's 8 x 4 m pool, with strong floor results. |
| Above-ground | DependsCable length and depth sensor calibration optimized for in-ground; aboveground use possible but less reliable. | DependsMOVA lists all pool types, but no test covered an above-ground pool, and it weighs 15.8 kg. |
| Mixed setupthey differ | GoodWorks in both in-ground and aboveground pools with appropriate cable management. | DependsA mixed setup needs both pool types confirmed, and above-ground use has not been independently tested. |
| Pool size | ||
| Small (< 400 sqft) | GoodUnder 15,000 gallons: single run completes coverage quickly but leaves idle capacity in battery. | GoodIt cleans small pools easily, though a hands-on review judged its size and price oversized for a garden pool. |
| Medium (400 – 800) | Good25,000-40,000 gallons is sweet spot: runtime covers full coverage in single autonomous session. | GoodOne review's 8 x 4 m pool was cleaned systematically, with leaves, sand and soil reliably picked up. |
| Large (> 800)they differ | PoorOver 50,000 gallons requires multiple cycles or partial coverage per session. | GoodMOVA rates it for 500 m², and independent testing found runtime only slightly below the six-hour claim. |
| Debris load | ||
| Fine (sand / silt) | GoodSand, fine silt handled well by dual brushes and filter cartridge replacement every 4 weeks. | GoodAn included 3 micron filter caught pollen and fine dirt in independent testing, though it clogs faster. |
| Leaves / large debristhey differ | DependsDual brushes prevent wrapping better than single designs; however, high leaf load requires weekly rinsing. | GoodIts 5 L basket and surface skimming collected leaves reliably in two independent tests. |
| Algae / heavy fouling | DependsLiDAR turbidity tolerance: algae blooms above moderate levels degrade navigation accuracy significantly. | DependsIndependent testing found light waterline deposits cleaned but old, stuck rims not removed; no algae test was run. |
| Coverage you want | ||
| Floor only | GoodPrimary focus: floor cleaning via dual brushes and autonomous path planning. | GoodOne review found little left on the floor, and another saw systematic, thorough floor cleaning. |
| Floor + wallsthey differ | DependsClimbs walls with variable brush pressure but does not reach beyond 5-6 feet height reliably. | GoodHands-on reviews found it climbs walls reliably with good adhesion. |
| Floor + walls + waterlinethey differ | DependsWaterline follower handles cleaning but may miss tight corner crevices requiring manual attention. | GoodHands-on reviews found waterline cleaning powerful, with the robot staying active at the top. |
A robot being poor for a condition is a fact about fit, not a fault. “Depends” means the record names a limit worth reading, not that the answer is unknown.
Nine inputs across three pillars, each weighted as shown and each scored so more is better. A robot can lead on one and trail on another, which is the point of showing them apart.
A number only means something next to the spread it sits in. Each track is the real range across every classified robot in the class, with the median marked.
Not compared, because fewer than two of these robots carry a published figure: Noise.
Written on each record, and the only thing here every robot on the site carries.
What each design gives up to be good at what it is good at.
You gain unattended autonomous cleaning across five functions, but scheduling and remote control depend on smartphone WiFi connectivity; app stability concerns appear in owner forums.
The quad brush system covers floor, wall and waterline in the same run, and those brushes are consumables that need rinsing after runs and replacing as the bristles wear.
Obstacle detection protects pool furniture, not people or animals: the pool must be clear before an unsupervised run.
Laser mapping drives systematic lanes, while a hands-on review found mapping less accurate in cloudy water.
The AquaSonar buoy adds underwater app control, and it needs its own charging, with a hands-on review finding the link unstable.
Stated by the record itself. A robot being wrong for a household is a fact about fit, not a fault.
The upkeep ownership hands back to you, whatever the autonomy level says.
Classifications rest on different depths of evidence. A pre-release assessment and a verified one are not the same kind of claim.

Evidence status counts the sources behind a classification, not their kind. A high count can be maker documentation and price coverage, so read it as how much was reviewed rather than as independent testing. How we weigh evidence.
