I've just tried the Dolphin Nautilus on my rectangular, concrete, painted pool. All the ads say that it climbs (and cleans) the walls, but not so in my pool. Once in a while it climbs to the top, but the rest of the time it inches up the wall and then falls back down as if it's just too tired to make the move all the way up. My walls are at a 90 degree angle to the floor.
Here are my questions:
Am i fooling myself if i think that a robot will really clean the walls, and should i just give up trying to find one?
If not, which robots actually clean the walls consistently, so that i don't have to sweep them?
Also, since I have a concrete, painted pool, do I need to look for a specific type of robotic cleaner that does not clean off all of the paint in my pool? I seem to be seeing a lot of white powdery stuff floating in the water when the Nautilus finishes its work.
I appreciate your help.
