Dolphin Premier Robotic Pool Cleaner (2026 Model) with Multimedia, Oversized Leaf Bag, Standard & Ultrafine Filters, Weekly Timer, Waterline Cleaning & More — for In-ground Swimming Pools up to 50ft

The cleaner works really well. My ultimate joy with this product is after 2 years the power supply had quit working. The company website was easy to navigate and I put in a warranty claim (3 years!) and within a couple days I had received my new power unit. That kind of customer support is priceless. I will be a customer for life! Great job Dolphin!!!

My old Omeron finally quit after 6 years of hard use. I have been so pleased with how well it cleans my gunite pool that I purchase this same model as the replacement. The fine mesh filter grabs all the dirt and leaves form the pool and is very easy to clean. The filter from my 6 year old unit are still in like new so I am keeping it to do quick swaps before rinsing with the hose. I am always amazed to watch it climb the sides of the pool and clean along the tiles at the water line. My good friend who also has a pool saw mine working and decided to buy one to replace his cleaner. He is also very happy with how well this Omeron works.

What an expensive piece of junk. The movement pattern is horrible--my unit seems to love a small area (maybe 100 square feet) of the pool near the shallow end, and almost never goes anywhere else. So there are accumulations of sand, etc. on the bottom that it simply NEVER reaches, so I actually brush the stuff into the thing's favorite places, where it MIGHT be picked up. After watching the thing work, there is simply no turning programmed into it, so it just goes back and forth for the most part, and after it comes down from the walls, it tends to come straight out, so it tends to bounce between parallel walls. I've even put a weight on the cord to try to force it to work in the deep end, and guess what it did? immediately headed for its favorite spot in the shallow end and stayed there with the cord pulled tight, like a dog straining at its leash! To be fair, it does seem to actually pick up a little dirt IF it goes directly over it. I got through to customer service once, and like their useless FAQ, it tells you to make sure your pool chemistry is in order. Are you kidding? There is simply no way pH or Chlorine level, etc., is going to fix this problem. And I only got through to them once, when the unit was fairly new. The last few times I tried, they won't answer or, like the one time I actually out-waited them on hold, I got semi-intelligible Habib in Calcutta. He said "Hello, Maytronics xxyatriffcffeethff." (joking--he was completely unintelligible after two or three words). I asked him to repeat that and HE HUNG UP after I waited on hold for about an hour. Oh yeah, somewhere along the line they got the idea that I wasn't happy, and the company sent me a code for $50 off if I wanted to buy anything else from them. There's zero chance of that. I recently saw at my pool store a simple, rechargeable vacuum-type device that fits on the end of your cleaning pole for about $69. I think I'm just going to get that and forget the stupid robots. But calling this thing a robot is an insult to robots the world over.

The first pool opening of the year usually consists of me spending the better part of an hour fishing out all of the fall and winter debris that has fallen into the pool around the cover (how that happens, I have no idea!). So when I read a review from a Dolphin product dealer, raving about the large capacity leaf bag on this model, I knew I had to give it a try. And boy am I glad I did! The initial clean was amazing but the bag did get full after vacuuming up about 90% of the leaf litter on the bottom of the pool. So I cleaned out the bag and ran it again. The pool was 100% clean from the floor, all the way up to the water line! The large capacity bag is made of a thick nylon material. So after the second pool sweep, I removed the bag, shook out the debris, and then ran it through a gentle cycle wash in my washing machine minus any fabric softener to maintain its absorbency. Worked like a charm! I also love that you can drop it in the water, leave it, and choose settings to have it run in its own everyday, every other day or every 3 days. I make sure the entire cord is in the water and just close the pool cover over it so that it can run whether I’m here or not. I choose to run it every day and just open it up and clean out the filters on the weekend. Couldn’t be happier with this purchase! Worth every penny!

Waited a year to leave a review so I can give a decent evaluation. The price is high, but with this product, you get what you pay for. Does a great job getting the tiles brushed and clean. I don’t have many curves so it gets roughly 98% of the pool clean with in 3 hours. The 90 degree corners are my only weak points it doesnt get that well. Wall climbing is no issue and works well on the pool bench steps. Just drop it in, plug it in, then power…that easy. I will say this, getting it out of the water requires some muscle and I’m starting to notice some dirt leaving the bottom and back into the pool while trying to lift it out, it’s not a lot, but definitely noticeable If anyone reading this has any recommendations to prevent this I’m all ears. Perhaps the inner springs that keep the vacuum intake closed needs to be adjusted or I may need to purchase another bottom cartridge. The three filters it comes with work well and picks up everything. Scheduling for daily/weekly clean is easy to setup and YouTube has a lot of videos showing how it’s done as well.

After 8 months I had some performance issues. Come to find out, the filter caddy was coming apart. I contacted Maytronics and they sent a new caddy (under warranty) and problem solved. Today for the first time, I used the leaf bag filter after a heavy storm severely contaminated the pool bottom. I was surprised how good it cleaned leaves and pine needles. I initially gave this product a poor review but am changing my rating to excellent due to continued good performance.

I needed to replace my old Polaris and saw that this Dolphin had good reviews. My experience with the device resulted in a return for two reasons: 1) The basket this thing uses is basically some filters attached to the bottom panel. It really isn’t a basket at all and cannot be any less user-friendly. Turning the thing upside down and attaching/reattaching the bottom grew tiresome. The panel/filters were also much more challenging to clean than a typical basket. My wife, who has the patience of a saint, was even starting to get irked cleaning this thing. 2) I chose this specific device for the ability to use the smart app control. I am a tech person who owns a home with a ton of smart devices. As a result, I know how easy it is to create an app that connects to a device via wifi or bluetooth. Unfortunately, I erred in not researching the Dolphin iPhone app before buying their products. Yes, it appears to be rated highly, but sorting by most recent reveals an infinite number of 1-star reviews. It’s safe to say I never got the app to connect to the Dolphin device, which is simply inexcusable for any product at this point. Lastly, I will say that Dolphin has many different pool vacuums and it did a good job of cleaning the pool. Therefore, if you want a Dolphin, find a cheaper one with the typical overhead basket. Also go into it knowing that app will not work.

I bought this robot to replace my old Polaris 280 and booster pump so in part this is a comparison to that previous bottom robot. Overall this one cleans well and comes with different filter packages. The challenge and ultimate frustration is that the ports on the bottom have springs to close them shut. If anything impedes those small doors from closing the debris inside will discharge back into the pool. This in my opinion is poorly designed as a trap for fine debris. Additionally the cleaning of the pool is completely random so stairs and turns (if your pool is not a rectangle ) get missed. This requires the robot to be used 2x as much. Lastly the jets are powerful and the ability to climb up the sides is good but it is heavy to remove from pool once fully submerged. In summary, does not seem worth the money spent.

Love it Just bought a new house that came with a pool. We had no idea how to take care of our pool and it became disgusting. This robot clean up our pool so nicely
