Hello Everyone,

I was interested in getting this pool cleaner, looks nice. But i am at a loss in finding a price for it. Prices range from 1100 to 1800 bucks. What is a right price for this thing??

More over reading about the online warranty is another confusing thing for me! A 1000 buck investment going bad in a year and paying extra for repairs is not my idea of a good buy!
 
Hi hellstorm,
The M5 as it 'was' known, is 'discontinued'. The same cleaner is known as the M500 this year, or the Dolphin Supreme.

Many dealers have "branding" agreements with the cleaner makers and so the same machine can be named differently between dealers, with the only differences being the color.

Also, the warranty depends on who you buy the cleaner from. Some of the larger dealers offer full warranty even if purchased online, (mine did), while others do not. So, it definitely pays to search around to find what you want.
 
I had to give up on my pressure side Kreepy Krauly, 1HP pump was never enough to push it around and didn't want to add another pump. I started shopping and wanted Maytronics as they are here in the Atlanta area, I found a refurb DX4 (looks similar to what you have) and got it for $675 with a 1 year warranty. It is amazing compared to results I got before, albeit set up was not what manufacturer recommended. This thing climbs walls and cleans water line and climbs steps.
 
Below are the only ones I know of. It pays to call them on the phone regardless of the items listed on thier website.

I got mine at Epic Pool Supply with full warranty. Many of us here on TFP did.
