Anyone know of a cordless robot vacuum that can go up and down inclined pool floors but does not climb the pool walls?

My pool walls stay clean and I only need the floor to be vacuumed but a lot of the ones out there that don't climb walls are meant only for flat floors. I'm looking for one that can handle the slope of my pool floor.
 
22,

Why do you care if it climbs the walls??

Maybe I just don't understand the issue??

Thanks,

Jim R.
It's not so much that I care if it climbs the walls... my walls just don't need the cleaning. Rather it spend the time cleaning the pool floor. I feel like I've found robots that will only work on flat floors OR robots that work on sloped floors but also have to climb the walls too.

I was just curious if there was such a vacuum that can handle sloped floors but doesn't climb walls.

I have been using a Smonet CR6 Pro I purchased off Amazon. After downloading the "app", you can set it to wall only, floor only or wall and floor by simplying pressing the on/off button multiple times to select which mode you want before dropping it in the pool. I don't really need it to scrub the walls either. My pool has a 6' to 3' deep slope and it handles it just fine. The first unit I had was spectacular. It stopped working and the company replaced it with a new one, no charge since it was still within the 1 year warrenty. Then the second one quit, replaced again. Now the third one has been having issues with one side's track not turning. They are sending yet another replacement. Great customer service. I am hoping the latest replacement is as good as the first one was. Not sure how many more I will continue with if they continue to have issues. But I would think most robotic cleaners have the option to set to floor only.
