Our verdict
The Sora 70 can replace a separate skimmer, which is why Bob Vila named it best all-in-one. It is a strong buy if surface debris is your main problem.
What we like
- Cleans surface, shallow platforms, waterline, walls and floor
- Large 6 L basket
- Bob Vila's best all-in-one pick (2026)
- Cleans the water surface as well as floor, walls and waterline
- Parks at the surface when done, so retrieval is easier
- 3-year warranty
What to know
- About 10.5 kg to lift
- Standard filter is coarse
- Standard filter is coarse (150 micron); finer filter sold separately
- Some independent reviewers still prefer corded robots at this price
