Robot works great, warranty statement on listing needs to be clarified.
5 Stars
Robot works great, warranty statement on listing needs to be clarified.
I've waited to write this review until we used this robot for a decent amount of time.I can say that it is a real time saver when it comes time to clean the pool. Almost every time I clean my pool it covers nearly every inch of the pool and it cleans very well. There have been a few times when it didn't get the entire pool floor, but it generally does great. I think one of the best things about the robot is that it has a self contained filter basket. So there's no hooking it into your filter. I have many trees around my pool and they drop a good amount of dirt into the pool. Typically I put the robot in the pool every day because there's dirt on the pool floor. All the dirt is captured in the robot's filter basket. This means I need to clean my pool filter much less often. When the robot is done cleaning I take it out of the pool and put it in my shed. Then I clean the filter basket which takes about 30 seconds. All in all I spend maybe 5 minutes a day putting the robot into the pool then taking it out and cleaning the filter basket. I used to spend 30 - 45 minutes every other day with the vacuum that connected to my pool filter via hose.This robot has done and incredible job cleaning my pool and saving me time.So why only 3 stars? Two reasons.1. On the Amazon page for the robot it says quite clearly "The E10 is backed by a 2 year manufacturer's quality warranty protecting your investment." That was one of the main reasons I bought it. When you spend this kind of money you expect a longer warranty. My opinion is the warranty should be at least 3 years but there are few robots, if any, with a warranty that long. However, even though the listing says it has a 2 year warranty, when you get the robot and you look at the warranty card you can see what the warranty really is. The warranty card says 2 years for plastic parts and 1 year for cable, power supply and motor unit. Why not make that clear in the listing?? If you look at one of my images you'll see the actual warranty card statement that I put a red box around. It's highly unlikely a plastic part is going to fail in 2 years. It's way more likely something mechanical or electrical will fail. So they are being very deceptive about the true warranty on the unit. I did buy the extended warranty through Asurion, but I'm not holding out much hope they'll actually be helpful if needed based on reviews I've read about them. Hopefully I never have to find out.2. Customer service appears to be non-existent. When I received my unit the filter basket had a hole in it. I know that sounds bad but it was in a place where it didn't really have a negative affect on the operation. However, being a new unit and being quite expensive I wanted to get the filter basket replaced with one that didn't have a hole in it. I called their support line and got no answer. I then sent an email and got no response to my email. So I'm assuming they don't really have a customer support group. Or if they do then they just don't care about actually helping their customers. I ended up having my wife sew up the hole in the basket. If you look at my other image you can see where she sewed up the hole. Filter works fine, but like I said, this is an expensive item and I should be able to expect quality.I do recommend the robot. Just keep in mind the 2 year warranty is not a complete warranty and good luck with their customer support if you need it.***Update 6-27-2019***After my review went public I the company responded to my comment almost immediately. I emailed them at the email address they gave in the response to my comment. They apologized for the lack of customer support during my initial attempts to reach out to them and they sent me a new filter to replace the one that had damage when I got the product new. So apparently I was just unlucky when I first tried to reach them. Since writing the review my experience with their customer service has been stellar. I still think the warranty statement for the product on Amazon needs to be clarified, but because of the great customer service I finally got I'm not going to remove any points for that. If I could give 4.5 stars I would. But all in all the product works great and customer service took quickly took care of the issue once I was able to reach them.

 Waited a month to give a more accurate review of product details. Husband purchased this for me for a early anniversary gift. Husband works alot so maintenance is left for me to do and this sure gets the job done. We swim almost everyday and our black lab swims three times a day.

PROS: This item gets the job done better then any other product on the market and keeps my pool crystal clear and ready to swim everyday with no dirt, no bugs, no leaves, no alge, no sand, no human or dog hair at the bottom of pool. Put it in the pool and in one hour working time it gets the whole pool done. Easy to start, just hook it up, push one button and it goes to work. It's super powerful with no noise. I run it every other day here in Texas you have alot of bugs and leaves and it gets them all out of the pool. This item has replaced all the labor of me having to sweep the pool. The item is light weight and easy to get in and out of the pool. The power cord doesn't get tangled or trapped in pool. I set it on the edge of pool to drain water when I'm taking it out. Easy to clean. I have saved so much money not having to buy so many chemicals to keep it clean. Less work involved for the pool owner to maintain the pool. This by far is my most favorite item ever purchased and hands down worth the money. I have bought other brands of pool sweepers for half the price thinking I could save some money going cheaper, to find out it only would last one reason and would have to buy another next season. It was costing me more money buying cheaper products so don't go buy anything else. Just save your money and purchase this item instead. You won't regret this purchase at all after you find out how much back breaking labor and money you save. You also get more time to swim and less time down time to maintain your pools cleanliness.

CONS: The things you won't get out of this item is programmed and mapping the pool, but hasn't hindered it from getting pool clean in one cycle. When it finishes its cycle it will be in random places in the pool but its light weight and so easy to pull it to side of pool, other products are heavy and bulky to pull in but not this one. Dog Hair can get stuck in the screen of the collection basket but its easy to clean with higher spray nozzle on your garden hose. With these reasons it wouldn't stop me from buying it again. Very please and so much fun to use. Hope this helps someone when making this purchase.

We have an above ground, Intex Easy-Set pool. I've struggled with keeping it clean the entire time we've had it. I first tried a manual vacuum that connected to the filter intake, but the filter struggled with it (like trying to suck water through a REALLY long straw) and it was a hassle to set up and use. Then I tried a self powered vacuum that attached to a pole...this worked better but was a lot of work and time consuming because you constantly had to stop and clean out the small debris filter. Then I tried one of those automatic filters than you attach to the water inlet...this worked OK but didn't filter small particles, did not have any kind of scrubbing action and was also a bit of a hassle to set up (having to shut the filter off, attach the huge hose, restart the filter, etc.)

Which brings me to the Dolphin. Of all the cleaners I've tried, this is by far the best in terms of ease of use and cleaning ability. You plug it in, chuck it in the pool and run a cycle (or two). It gets the pool as clean as any of the methods I've tried but with almost none of the work or drawbacks.

Couple things of note...

Our Intex pool has sloped edges, I was worried about this causing the Dolphin to tip over or have problems. This hasn't happened...the Dolphin is totally stable and a happy discovery was that even though this model is not designed to do so...the sloped sides allow the Dolphin to climb the walls pretty well. One downside is that because of the shape of the corners of the pool and the size of the Dolphin, it can't really reach all the way into the corners...I had to use a brush to push the debis out of the corners for the Dolphin to grab.

I've seen a couple complaints about the Dolphin doing "wheelies" all the time and not cleaning because of this. Ours does do wheelies every now and then...but I'm pretty sure this is by design. From watching it, it seems to do wheelies as a method of changing direction. It'll pop up on it's back wheels, turn, then lay back down and keep going.

Another complaint I've seen is in regards to the filter basket not catching small particles. Based on those complaints I went ahead and ordered the additional "ultra-fine" filter (which is made of a papery mesh material, similar to a pool cartridge filter). In hindsight, I don't think I needed to buy that. I don't know for sure but I "think" they may have upgraded the included filter at some point as the standard filter has no problem catching algae particles and the regular "pool scum" type stuff. The included filter basket is not made with the same "pool cartridge" material, but does still have a very fine screen that seems to get everything. I have not even tried the additional filter as I haven't needed it.

So anyhow...they're expensive compared to many options. But if you like having a very clean pool with little effort...this is the way to go!

So I got this cleaner for our fiberglass inground- had it for about a month, used it about 10 times now.

It does a great job cleaning the floor: gravel, leaves, fine dust… Very long cable. Never got tangled as in other review. Easy to empty the basket(it has a handy trap door at the bottom-clever!).

The issues I find with it:
1. The app is working, but the manual control is soooo delayed- it’s frustrating to try and clean a certain area or even try to guide it to a certain spot to pull out of the water… it could be due to the WiFi connection limitations, but Bluetooth is not an option for me- I like to control if from anywhere.

2. It doesn’t seem to have an option to empty the trash bin without resetting the cleaning cycle- you get a notification that it’s full, but as soon as you take it out of the water is basically turns off(I get it: safety and stuff), but there should be a way to “pause to empty bin” option or something… It messes with your schedule if you plan on taking the unit out after the cleaning cycle is complete.

3. The waterline cleaning is hit or miss- it’s weirdly inconsistent. Sometimes it won’t be able to climb the wall to be picked up out of the water, other times it’s just fine…

Overall- I would probably buy it again- the reliability issues? I got the extended warranty thru Amazon for $150 for extra 2 or 3 years, so that’s 5 years of worry free use.
It’s definitely a premium unit, it feels nice, it does a good job cleaning the pool, didn’t have any issues with it loosing connectivity etc… it never got stuck or “confused”, it does what I expected, but $2000 seems pretty high.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great value, well built
Reviewed in Canada on July 11, 2023
This is our first Dolphin. We have a 18x33 above ground pool. The unit works great, no issues. Sturdy build and light. This is the above ground model recommended by the manufacturer. Especially like the large filter basket(larger than my pools skimmer basket), it has a fine screen with a trap release bottom and pop on screen sides which makes cleaning a snap. I was going to get a cheaper battery model, but glad I spent a bit more and got the wired version(light, no batteries to burn out, lots of power, and the manufacturer has been in the business for a long time.)It does not retain a mapping of your pool, but re-maps on every clean, which seems just fine as it’s doing its job and I didn’t want to pay for the cell phone model. Definitely the best bang for the buck in the Dolphin lineup.

El robot no funciona bien y el vendedor se niega a hacer el reembolso a pesar de que lo he devuelto en tiempo y forma. No comprar nada con ellos!!

We love our new dolphin pool robot. It takes only a couple of hours to clean our 14x28 rectangular pool. Saves us so much time from having to manually clean the pool - so convenient. Drawbacks are that it does not vacuum our stairs (which is not a big deal) and the chord could be a few more feet long so accommodate plugging it in to a receptacle. Our one corner of the pool gets neglected because the robot struggles to get that far and our receptacle inside our pool shed isn’t even that far. Once we have our exterior receptacle I’m sure it will just reach and get every inch of the pool. We are very happy with our purchase!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Dolphin E10 Robot nettoyeur de Piscine
Reviewed in Canada on October 30, 2022
J'ai adoré mon achat, pour le moment, je l'ai testé 5-6 fois cette année et sérieusement, elle ramasse des feuilles, de la saleté au fond de ma piscine ce que ma balayeuse normale peut ramasser mais elle bouche mon filtreur chaque fois et je dois forcer avec la balayeuse mais pas mon robot. Je le part et le tour est joué. Il travail seul sans moi. Il fait un excellent travail. Je m'assure naturellement avant de le retourner dans ma piscine de nettoyer son panier toutes les fois et de le rincer comme il faut. Et ma piscine reste très belle. Très contente de l'achat.
