Dolphin E30 vs S200 vs Nautilus CC Plus (Canada)

[shibainu]

Hey folks,

I'm shopping around for a robot vacuum right now, and these are some options that are available to me in my area in Canada:

(all in Canadian dollaroos of course)
E30: 1399.99$
S200: 1299.99$
Nautilus CC Plus: 1399.99$

Given the similar price range, is there one that you'd recommend over the other? I've read some threads from TFP that the S200 is a newer model than the Nautilus CC Plus. However, I can't see any differences in specs on Maytronics between the E30 and S200. What does TFP recommend?

Cheers

I believe the E30 has the bluetooth app, but I may be wrong? I've tried bluetooth temp probes in my pool and could never get it to work up at that house, so you *might* have trouble too.

I've got the Pentair Warrior which is equivalent to the E20 but slightly cheaper. Ask about that one too since its an E20 in all but paint job.

Addendum- just watched this and NO mention of bluetooth, so it looks just like an E20 to me??

The specs on the E30 & the s200 seem to be the same per the maytronics website except the filter spec.

I am assuming this means the s200 comes with pleated filter too? If so that’s the one I would pick.
The E30 is just the newer model so it’s got a higher price tag.
The nautilus cc+ Has 2 small filter things instead of the 1 big basket w/ handle which can be an issue if u have any large debris at all.

We have the Nautilus CC Plus and just love it. But yes, anything larger than a small twig can get trapped in the inlet hole or the mesh trapper thingy on the filter cartridge. For small stuff like pollen, dirt, sand, leaves, everything else it's just spectacular.

I have a Dolphin with Bluetooth but the Bluetooth capabilities don't really help much - I have only used them a handful of times to do a manual drive in an area with lots of debris. It would be nice if it was Wifi and had other capabilities like measure the temp and pH of the water as I leave my robot in the pool all the time unless we are swimming.

Just to update this post for future readers: I went with the E30. Turns out the E30 is one of the newer models and usually more expensive. Since both the S200 and E30 are the same spec wise, and the online store didn't have the S200, I went with the E30. If the E30 was a MSRP (~1500$ CAD), I'd have gone with the S200 instead. Cheers.
