The catch
WYBOT C1
The 180-micron basket here is coarser than the secondary 10-micron filter in the C2.
Side by side
WYBOT C1 vs C2: A bigger rating is no guarantee of coverage, and C2 adds fine-debris media
Quick verdict
The selected 2025 C1 is the one to choose for floor, wall and waterline cleaning inside its 1,615-square-foot area rating. Step up to the C2 for a larger rated area, a longer maximum runtime and a 10-micron secondary filter that handles finer debris. None of these specifications promises complete coverage in every pool shape.

My pool collects fine dust, sand or dead algae
A fine-filter option is documented for it. Confirm that this exact filter is included, and follow the instructions for coarse cleanup and filter care.

I would like to empty the filter less often

Both products are checked against the same needs. The first verified differences still standing are named here.

|---|---|---|---|
| Coverage | 1,615 sq ft | 2,152 sq ft | Treat this published coverage as a sizing limit under the stated conditions. It does not guarantee results in every layout. |

| Filtration | 180 micron | 180 + 10 micron | It shows what the treatment path is built to catch or reduce, and what upkeep that requires. |
