While this doesn’t seem to be a widespread problem, it’s worth considering if you heavily rely on remote control and scheduling features. The NanoFilter™ also has the benefit of being able to absorb oil, which is beneficial for keeping sunscreen and scum lines from forming on the pool’s surface. Setting up the Dolphin Nautilus CC Plus Robotic Pool Vacuum Cleaner is as easy as 1-2-3 (well, actually 1-2-3-4-5). Its advanced scanning system ensures thorough coverage, so you can trust that every inch of your pool will be cleaned.

Alternatively, if you want the cleaning freedom of a cordless pool vacuum with similar cleaning capabilities as the Dolphin Nautilus CC Plus, our Best for Leaves pick, the Aiper Seagull Pro, can handle larger pools and can clean walls and the waterline. Hi, I read in a previous question that the power cord is about 4’ long and you are not supposed to use an extension cord. We also compare the cleaner to the more expensive Dolphin Premier Robotic Pool Cleaner, so you can see the differences between the two products at a glance. The Aiper would get stuck on large piles of leaves, and we didn’t appreciate that we had to empty its filter during its cleaning cycle. Way better than a suction cleaner (frequent filter cleanings and parts use) or a Polaris type cleaner (parts, getting stuck, pressure problems) - this one is like a Roomba for your pool - drop it in, let it run, clean the filter inserts, and put away til next time - I wish they had these when I first bought my pool - easy way to clean, in 2 hours too!

The Dolphin on the other hand has a two hour cleaning cycle and does not run out of power, but its power bank is not waterproof, so we recommend keeping it away from the water’s edge. Cordless models are limited by their battery life, so they also may not be able to clean larger pools in one battery life. Not to be outdone, the Aiper Seagull SE has impressive cleaning capabilities as a smaller and more affordable robotic model.

The Dolphin Nautilus CC Plus is equipped with smart navigation technology, so it scans your pool to strategize the most efficient cleaning path. I keep the pool open and heated year round so even though its December my pool is operating and needs to be cleaned. I have a 40 x 20 pool and often times it will take the second two hour cycle to make the pool spotless. With the Dolphin's plug-and-play system, just plug your robot in, drop it into the pool, and turn on the power supply for a spotless pool in 2 hours.

Even though it is advertised as not being designed to clean the waterline of my pool, it does so consistently and very well. Two hours is sufficient for it to completely clean my 15′ x 30′ pool, including swim-outs, stairs, sidewalls and waterline. So I recommend gently pulling it out so the water drains out over the pool rather than over your feet (lesson learnt! If you are lucky enough to have your own swimming pool, I highly recommend you invest in a Dolphin pool cleaner. Manufacturer warranties and service options may not be valid or available outside of the United States.

With its Wi-Fi capabilities, smart navigation, and top-load fine filters, this robotic cleaner takes the hassle out of pool maintenance. It runs for 2 1/2 hour intervals, Just checked on mine, today it has been running for 2 hours so far and no tangles its doing great. Exceptionally Clean: The top load fine filters work tirelessly to remove even the smallest debris, leaving your pool water crystal clear.When I opened the filter hatch after the first use, I saw the impressive amount of grime (most of which is a fine, whitish silt) this Dolphin model had extracted. The unit is attached to a 60-foot-long, durable blue cable equipped with a swivel feature, which prevents tangling (we have never encountered an issue on that front) and lets the device easily navigate everywhere it needs to go within the pool. But i would recomend just running it after your done using the pool it only runs for a couple hours at a time then shuts itself off.
