A robotic pool cleaner handles the one job nobody actually enjoys — so you can put down the net and the hose for good. Drop it in, press start, and walk away. A couple of hours later you come back to a spotless floor, scrubbed walls, and a clean waterline — no booster pump or plumbing required.
We don't just sell these robots — we run them in real pools, season after season. Every model below earned its place, whether you've got a small above-ground pool, a big gunite build, or a backyard full of oak leaves. New to pool robots?

The right robot really comes down to four things. Get these right and the price tends to take care of itself.
This is what actually separates a great robot from a cheap one. Basic models use a coarse mesh screen that lets pollen, sand, and fine silt slip right back into the water. The best robots run pleated NanoFilters or oversized MaxBin baskets that trap the fine stuff and are far easier to rinse out. If your pool sees a lot of fine debris, start here.
Decide how much of the pool you want cleaned. Floor-only robots are perfect for small or above-ground pools. Wall-climbing models go partway up the sides. Full waterline-scrubbing robots reach the tide line where oils and scum collect — the part you notice most. Bigger or in-ground pools almost always want waterline cleaning.
Budget robots bounce around at random and often miss spots or get stuck in corners. Smarter models use gyroscopic mapping (like Maytronics' SmartNav) to scan your pool and clean it methodically in fewer passes. On large or oddly shaped pools, smart navigation is the difference between “mostly clean” and “done.”
Robots are an investment, so coverage matters. Look for 2–3 years — and, just as important, who honors it. As a Maytronics Authorized Dealer, every robot we sell carries the full manufacturer warranty and real support behind it. Not sure which tier you need? Talk to a pool expert before you buy.
We run these robots in real pools and write the honest reviews to prove it — including what each one does well and where it falls short.

Every robot is plug-and-play. No booster pump, no plumbing, no assembly — lower it into the water, press start, and it goes to work right out of the box.
Try any robot in your own pool for 30 days. If it isn't making your life easier, send it back for a full refund — or swap it for one that fits better.

Control it from anywhere with the myDolphin Plus app over Wi-Fi or Bluetooth, trap the finest debris with the included NanoFilters, and relax knowing it's backed by a 3-Year Warranty.
Shop Dolphin Sigma
Something truly new (and we don't say that lightly): the Clear UV is the first robotic cleaner with a built-in UV-C disinfection lamp. As it runs, water passes through the chamber and is exposed to high-intensity UV-C light to help knock back algae and bacteria at the source.
Add a quad-motor drive system, the oversized top-loading UltraBin™ with 1-micron filtration, full floor-to-waterline coverage, Wi-Fi app control, and a 3-Year Warranty, and you have the smartest clean we've tested.
Shop Clear UVThe Quantum punches well above its weight. Its XXL MaxBin™ holds NanoFilters that capture ultra-fine debris, while PowerJet mobility helps it scrub walls and the waterline most budget robots can't reach.
You get dual commercial-grade motors, SmartNav 2.0, and a programmable weekly timer for true set-and-forget cleaning — the easiest way into the ProLine™ family.
Shop Dolphin Quantum
Want hands-off cleaning without the flagship price? The Cayman delivers. It climbs walls, scrubs the waterline, and runs on its own schedule thanks to a built-in weekly timer.
Part of the Max-Series™ with SmartNav 2.0 and an optional NanoFilter™ basket, it's the value pick our experts recommend most for everyday in-ground pools.
Shop Dolphin CaymanBuilt specifically for above-ground pools up to 33 ft (and great for smaller in-ground pools too), the Escape uses HyperBrush technology to scrub twice as fast as standard robots for a thorough floor clean.
SmartNav 2.0 navigation, an easy top-access filter basket, and an optional NanoFilter™ upgrade make above-ground pool care effortless — all backed by a 2-Year Warranty.
Shop Dolphin Escape
For most pools, our experts point to the Dolphin Premier or Dolphin Sigma — two ProLine™ models with commercial-grade motors, superior filtration, and a 3-year warranty. Want the newest tech? The Clear UV is in a class of its own.
The right robot really comes down to your pool size, the debris you battle, and your budget. Not sure where to land? Our pool experts are a quick call, chat, or message away — and happy to help you choose.

With the Dolphin ProLine™, Maytronics' most advanced robotic pool cleaners take dramatic leaps in capability, designed for the most demanding pool owners.
These electric powered units have two important differences. The first differentiator is the NanoFilter which is a pleated design that is similar to the filters designed to filter the water in the pool. Most robotic pools cleaners contain a very basic mesh screen which allows small debris to pass through untouched.
But the best units have true pleated filters capable of capturing the smallest debris. The most capable models will clean both the waterline and scrub and vacuum the area over the waterline, all while boasting the longest warranties.

The questions our pool experts hear most. Still stuck? Talk to a human.
A robotic pool cleaner is a self-contained, electric robot that runs completely independently of your pool's pump and filter. You lower it into the water and press start. Onboard motors drive it across the floor, up the walls, and along the waterline while spinning brushes scrub the surface and an internal filter vacuums up the debris. When it's done, you lift it out and rinse the filter — that's the entire job.
For most pool owners, yes. A robot saves hours of manual vacuuming every week, uses a fraction of the energy of a pressure or suction cleaner, and actually filters the water instead of pushing debris into your pool's system. It pays you back in time, lower energy and chemical use, and a pool that's swim-ready far more often. If you currently dread cleaning your pool, this is the upgrade people notice the fastest.
It depends on your pool, but our experts' top overall picks are the Dolphin Sigma and Dolphin Premier — both run commercial-grade motors, fine NanoFilter filtration, and a 3-year warranty. For value, look at the Dolphin Cayman; for above-ground pools, the Dolphin Escape. See the full breakdown on our best robotic pool cleaners guide.
Robotic pool cleaners generally run from about $500 to $2,000+. Entry-level models handle floor-only cleaning on smaller pools, mid-range robots add wall climbing and weekly timers, and premium models deliver full waterline scrubbing, smart navigation, and app control. Check our deals and specials for current savings on top-rated models.
Yes. There are robots and brush types optimized for gunite/concrete, vinyl liner, fiberglass, and tile pools. Smart-navigation models also handle freeform, L-shaped, and kidney pools without getting stuck. Tell us your surface and shape and we'll confirm the right match before you buy.
A standard cleaning cycle takes about 2 to 3 hours depending on your pool's size and how much debris it's working through. Many models also offer a quick-clean mode that finishes light maintenance in around an hour, and weekly-timer models can run on their own schedule so the pool is always ready.
Suction and pressure cleaners rely on your pool's pump and plumbing, add wear to that system, and simply move debris into your existing filter. A robotic cleaner has its own motor and filter, so it works independently, captures finer debris, climbs walls, and uses far less energy. It costs more up front but typically wins on cleaning quality and running costs over time.
Very little. After each cycle, pull out the filter basket or cartridge and rinse it with a hose. Beyond that, store the robot out of direct sun, keep the cable from kinking, and check the brushes occasionally for wear. That's it — a few minutes is all it takes to keep a robot running for years.
