As an expert in the field of outdoor recreation and swimming pools, I have had the opportunity to test and review numerous robotic pool cleaners. And let me tell you, these advanced devices are a game changer when it comes to keeping your pool clean and sparkling without any manual effort. In fact, the Dolphin Nautilus CC Plus robot pool cleaner scored perfectly in our tests for its ability to climb pool walls and suck up dirt and leaves. It's no wonder that it's one of our top picks for inground pools up to 15 meters. But what exactly are robotic pool cleaners? These devices are equipped with intelligent technology that allows them to navigate underground pools and efficiently remove dirt, debris, and algae.
They are designed to keep your pool impeccably clean without clogging the skimmer or burning the filtration system. And after testing 31 different models, we found that some of our favorites even allow us to schedule cleanings, check the water temperature, and monitor the cleaning process for a simple and worry-free experience. One of the biggest advantages of robotic pool cleaners is their "set up and forget" feature. Once you set them up in your pool, they will do all the work for you. And as someone who has extensive practical experience with these devices, I can attest to their efficiency and effectiveness.
Currently, I am testing both the Beatbot AquaSense Pro and the iSkim Ultra for long-term use. When it comes to choosing the right robotic pool cleaner for your pool, there are a few factors to consider. First, you need to think about the size of your pool as larger pools may require longer cleaning cycles. Additionally, if your pool has special features like a sun barrier or bubbler, you may want to select a cleaner that is specifically designed to clean those areas. For example, the Aiper Scuba E1, which is our top pick for elevated pools, is not recommended for inground pools. Another important consideration is the design of your pool.
Some robotic cleaners come with a compatible smartphone app, which allows you to program cleaning times and designate specific zones in the pool for cleaning. This can be especially useful if your pool has a unique shape or features that require extra attention. One of the most common questions people have about robotic pool cleaners is whether they can pick up dirt. And the answer is a resounding yes! These devices are specifically designed to vacuum dirt and debris from the bottom of your pool, trapping them in a two-piece mesh basket. And for an even more thorough clean, some models even come with a water clarifying agent that is dispensed as the robot moves around the pool surface. But what about cleaning the walls and waterline? Again, robotic pool cleaners have got you covered.
The Dolphin Nautilus CC Plus, for example, can clean not just the floor but also the walls and waterline of your pool. And with its ability to climb walls and suck up dirt and leaves, it's no wonder it scored perfectly in our tests. One of the most convenient features of robotic pool cleaners is their docking station. This station automatically charges the battery after each cleaning session, eliminating the need to drag a power cable to the device. This makes maintenance and storage a breeze. So if you're tired of manually cleaning your pool or dealing with clogged skimmers and filtration systems, it's time to invest in a robotic pool cleaner.
With their advanced technology and efficient cleaning capabilities, they will save you time and effort while keeping your pool sparkling clean. Trust me, once you try one, you'll never want to go back to manual cleaning again.
