This updated model allows you to control the robot from anywhere at any time with the MyDolphin Plus app. All you have to do before popping this model into your pool is ensure that it's completely charged and connect the two small cleaning brushes to the bottom of the unit. This is the first home we have had that has a swimming pool, and unless you have always had one they are a lot of work! Depending on factors such as pool usage and debris levels, running it 2-3 times per week is generally sufficient to keep your pool sparkling clean. And sure, you could spend a few hours scrubbing your pool every weekend, but that requires a lot of effort (and time).

Every time I throw it in the pool I'm so thankful for all the time I now get to spend swimming instead of cleaning the pool. The Aiper’s limited battery life constricts it to smaller pools of 40 feet x 20 feet or 30 feet in diameter.

Your bot will scan your pool to determine the most efficient cleaning path, no matter the shape or surface type.

I decided to test out the new, high-end robotic cleaner to see if it could blow my old one out of the water. Couldn't believe it when I saw this machine climb the wall and move along the top in a sideways fashion. Trying to hold it in one hand while trying to get the filters out is a little hard work, but I am sure with time this is something I will maser. The reason is simple: TFPC (Trouble Free Pool Care) is a methodology, not a product that you must purchase.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. This cleaner-bot really gets the pool sparkling clean, even after a big crowd of swimmers, and I don’t need to run it as often as I did with my previous one to maintain that level of freshness.

However, our editor found that the Nautilus did just fine filtering out lots of leaves and particulates with its two filters. The belt that runs under the unit turns at the same speed it travels so it's not scrubbing, it just runs over it. We especially appreciate that this pool cleaner can navigate a variety of pool shapes and finishes, including round, rectangular, kidney, and custom designs. It has a transformer box that plugs into the wall and then has a low voltage waterproof line running to the robot.

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. We are based in San Antonio, TX and can land most products to your door (within the 48 contiguous states) in less than a week.
