Looking at these five models and confused as to why Dolphin has so many variants, pluses and minuses etc. Don't really need a caddy as I have a storage box close by. Pool is freeform, 13000 gallon with a a sunledge and a bench under a waterfall. clover shaped with two lobes at 4' and entry lobe at 3.5 center is 5ft deep Our water is hard and lots of scale already on tiles and stones that form the waterline, so not sure if waterline will be a benefit worth paying extra for. Guessing rocks will throw it off some?

Thoughts?
 
Geep,

I have found that you can spend more money on a robot, but it will not necessarily make it clean any better.. I have several S200 "Style" robots and they work just fine..

Call Marina Pool and Spa and they can tell you what the best robot for you is.. They will not try to up sell you...

That said, I have switched robots at my house, and as my rental robots die, they will be replaced with the EVO...

Check out this Review..


Thanks,

Jim R.

I found this chart from Pelican very helpful. I wound up buying a Polaris instead, but this made me at least understand the dolphin models. Just keep in mind this chart doesn’t take into account software differences. My issue was that I was going to buy the cc supreme then found out the sigma, maybe, has better software.
