I've been using a Pentair Kreepy Krauly Platinum since then. I'll be honest - I was skeptical that this cleaner was going to meet my expectations. I thought there was a decent chance I'd have to send it back within 30 days based on some of the reviews. It has done an excellent job. The pool is about 25,000 gallons. It is kidney shaped. The cleaner makes it to all the walls and scrubs the water line. I probably had to run in about 3 times initially to get everything off the bottom of the pool. Now just running it once for 2 hours results in a clean pool. We have not done a good job of brushing our walls the last several years. The walls and the pool water have not looked this good in years. I'm really happy with this purchase. I've only had it for about a month now. Hopefully it lasts several years. Good luck.
5.0 out of 5 stars Best Purchase I Have Ever Made for My Pool
What can I say? I'm beyond impressed with this robot. I have been in the "pool world" for decades. My family had a pool, my wife and I worked in the pool business for a while and we have a lovely 8 year old Doughboy pool ... but never in all those years did we ever use a "robot", I didn't know what I was missing!PROS:* The Price. I have been shopping for various units and the prices for "larger pool" robots were over $1,000, and at the price we paid ($849 - 5% Bolo Store Card Credit), it is a STEAL.* It Freekin' Works. Look, I love my pool, and don't really mind vacuuming it, but as the season progresses and more leaves and dirt get in the pool, it really became a drag to do it. I can say without hesitation, that I will probably never have to vac the pool again!When we opened the pool, the water was clear but there was some "gunk" and algae on the bottom. We put this in (Using the pleated filters) and within no time it was CLEAN* It Cleans The Walls, Water Line and "Corners". The one job I truly hate in the heat of the summer, is catching / scrubbing those pesky occasional "algae spots" that sneak up on the walls. This unit cleans the floor, the coping, the edges and climbs the walls to clean all the way up to the water line. SO far, no algae spots are in the pool.* EASY To Clean and Maintain. Just pull out the unit, open it up, empty the "basket" and wash off the filter panels with a hose. Takes a few minutes!* The Dog Loves It. Our Dachshund loves to sit by the pool and watch it work ... and so do I :-)CONS:* Wish There Was More Run Time Options. I knew going in that this unit does not have the bluetooth features the higher models have, but I would like the ability to run the unit more than once a day OR run a little longer. This is the only "con" I have so far!* Manual Was a Bit "Lacking". There were some questions I had about the product that were not answered in the manual since parts of it were "universal" to all of their units (including do not remove the foam circles on the cleaning roller ... this unit didn't have those ... and it took me 5 minutes to have realized there was an asterisk in the manual saying "not all units have these". Minor thing.Bottom line? If you are looking for a robot cleaner, do yourself a favor and snag this DX4 (or any in this line) and I guarantee that you will LOVE not sweeping your pool during the season!
1.0 out of 5 stars Proteus DX4 Poor Pool Coverage
I purchased the Proteus DX4 robotic vacuum for one week ago. I have probably ran it ten times. Today I observed the performance for the entire 2 hours. The pool is 30’ X 18’ and kidney shaped. The circumference of the pool is 85’. I ran the DX4 for the default 2 hours. The pools pump is a variable speed and was running at about 1/3 maximum speed. I started the cleaning at the remote end of the pool in the shallow area. I have started the DX4 in different areas and get similar results. The DX4 climbed the wall 15 times in 6 areas which covered 25 feet or 30% of the pool circumference for water edge scrubbing. This seems disappointing, especially only scrubbing in six areas, 30% of the pool. The DX4 spent over 1/6th of the time around the main drain cover. It would back up and continue running over the drain cover. The main drain is shut off and not used in this pool. The main drain cover meets the new standards to prevent personal injury when the suction is turned on. The DX4 seems to prefer using the center of the length of the pool and only branching right or left in the six areas identified for water edge cleaning. Numerous times while climbing from the deep end (about 6’ deep) it would seemingly stall and abort the climb to the shallow end. I also observed it frequently moving forward and backward repeatedly only covering about a foot in either direction.Attached is a picture showing the six areas where water edge scrubbing was observed. The areas where there are no black buckets indicates there were no attempts for water edge cleaning or cleaning the pool floor.From my perspective the coverage for my pool was poor. I purchased the DX4 for the Water Edge Scrubbing and the Swivel in the power cord. Neither feature met my expectations. I expected the DX4 to cover the entire pool in the 2 hour cycle. I contacted Maytronics about my concerns last week, and the rep suggested I clean the impeller. The pool is screened and was manually cleaned before using the DX4, so I was confident there were no obstructions and the DX4 was clean after disassembling and inspection. I have also completely unplugged the unit, thinking the unit might reset, but the coverage characteristics are similar on the next run. Maytronics is willing to run diagnostics since the DX4 is within warranty period, only one week old, but I have to pay for shipping which seems ridicules.I contacted Maytronics support and their recommendations were (1) turn off the pool pump during the 2 hour cleaning period (2) The also felt the issue with continuous cleaning of the main drain was also tied to the pool pump (note the drain has a plug in it) (3) Be prepared to manually clean areas of the pool (4) DX4 will not clean steps because the water is too shallow (it has cleaned this area on a subsequent test run)I also ex[plained that I also tested a Maytronics Active Solo, which did not exhibit any of these issues and that it did an excellent job of cleaning the pool.I am a retired engineer. I have no experience in robotics.

5.0 out of 5 stars great pool cleaner so far
We ordered the Dolphin Proteus DX3 after having a Polaris that required a booster pump for many years. We have only had it 2 weeks but so far are pleased with its cleaning ability. It covers the entire pool including the deep part in the middle where it slopes on either side. It cleans everything in less than 3 hours. We love the simplicity of the machine and how easy it is to remove the filter to clean which is removed on the top of the Dolphin making is easy to remove. We ordered a hook to help lift it from bottom of pool after cleaning which is very helpful. So far so good. Hope this cleaner lasts as long as our old Polaris as far as reliability. Will update again if not reliable or any issues.
5.0 out of 5 stars Highly recommended cleaner.
The Dolphin Proteus DX4 does a great job cleaning the pool bottom and walls. The large basket filters well and is easy to remove and wash out. Plug it in, turn it on and watch it do its job.
