## What reviewers found

### Dolphin E10

- Poolbots (retailer review): In their test it cleaned floors reasonably well with an easy basket, but it does not clean walls or the waterline, has no scheduler, tangles easily, and let silt and sand cloud the water. [Source](https://www.poolbots.com/learn/dolphin-e10-review)

### Dolphin Nautilus CC Plus Wi-Fi

- The Pool Nerd: Rated Pool Nerd Disapproved: Dolphin cut the Nautilus warranty to one year, newer units ship with standard mesh filters instead of NanoFilters, and it climbs walls but does not scrub the waterline. [Source](https://www.thepoolnerd.com/dolphin-nautilus-cc-plus-review)
- Poolbots (retailer review): Headlined great cleaning performance but missing essential features: no waterline cleaning, Gen 1 filter cartridges and no NanoFilters. [Source](https://www.poolbots.com/reviews/dolphin-nautilus-cc-plus-wifi)
