Dolphin E10
Score: 68/100
Dolphin Nautilus CC
Score: 57/100Rankings

The Dolphin 500966 is a lightweight, entry-level robotic cleaner with smart navigation and a top-load filter, ideal for small above-ground pools. Its main trade-offs are the lack of wall-climbing ability and missing smart-app features. Best suited for owners who need a simple, low-maintenance floor-only solution.

The Dolphin Nautilus CC bundle provides a universal caddy and a heavy-duty UV-resistant cover, adding convenience and protection for the robot. However, the package does not disclose any performance metrics such as runtime or suction power. Best for owners who already have a compatible Nautilus CC and need storage and transport accessories.
