Dolphin Proteus DX5i Customer Reviews

What Customers Are Saying

“If you’re in the market for a reliable robotic pool cleaner, the Dolphin Proteus DX5i may be just what you need. Unlike its predecessor, the Nautilus, the Proteus has a white body that won’t leave black marks on your pool’s plaster. The filter basket is also larger and can hold leaves, fine dirt, and sand. The suction is great, too, as it can suck up debris before even rolling over it.

While it may do some wheelies and stop-and-reverse movements, it still manages to clean your pool in just one cycle. It climbs walls like a pro and even goes on the bench seat. Plus, it’s more affordable than the Nautilus. Overall, the Proteus is a great investment for any pool owner looking for an efficient and effective pool cleaning solution.”
