Maytronics - done with them

[CedarChuck]

My M600 has been an absolute beast. I've run it about every 3rd day in a medium sized pool over the last 2 years. I do have to replace the tracks every year at a cost of $30.

My S200 has been working 24/7/365 underwater the whole time 1 cycle a day for the last 5 years. I did do some maintanance and changed the basket filters one time. Changed the cord because my dog chewed on it. Im about to change rollers and tracks.

Felipe,

You will also need wheel kits for the two large wheels.

The two bearing surfaces will have huge gaps after 5 years..

Thanks,

Jim R.

Got my robot back today. About a month from shipping out to returned. Replaced the power cord and now she is back to working. Thanks again for the pirateship site.

Nautilus CC Cleaner Plus. Lasted 18 months before the power cord from the box to the robot broke. Have to ship it back for warranty repair - $130 for shipping! Time to RC find a new brand.

I opted for the same…after 30+ hours in the pool it had accomplished nada.

Sent my customer's dolphin to Georgia vis UPS for warrantee repair, $184.
Wish I'd known about Pirateship!
A local shop (45-minute drive away) is a warrantee center, but they quoted 6 weeks for repair.
Seems all the robot mfrs are having significant QC issue these days.
I tell people if they think they need a robot, buy local and verify that they do in-house repairs.
Spend what you will on one, and expect 3 years out of it.
