The Dolphin Cayman is a single brush cleaner whereas the Active20/S200 has two brushes (the “active” brush spins at 2X the drive speed). The S200 is the better cleaner.
Dolphin only makes one or two models for online sales. They usually have inferior warranties. I bought my unit from a local brick & mortar shop because I wanted a place to bring my robot to, not have to pay to ship it to a service center. I paid a premium for local business but knowing the shop is less than 3mi away and that they offer loaners in case of extended repairs being needed is well worth the extra cost.
Consider local if that option is available.
Great recommendation, and yes I’ve found the phone-order companies offer different units with usually 2 year warranty. I live in Palm Springs area and beyond Leslie’s Pools, no authorized Dolphin retailers. Glad you mention Cayman is not on par with A20/S200.
I’ll call Marina, I’ve seen their website but seems like a phone only scenario. Is anyone presently aware of any rebates if I order now?
