Pros & Cons

It is an amazing machine that will save countless hours of vacuuming. The operation is simple. This requires some strength and proper lifting technique.

The vac does a great job on the pool floor and i see it cleaning the waterline on occasion. Plan is to devise a drain clip on remedy to keep the vac off. The robot now works flawlessly with no issues getting stuck on the drain.



Cons

Maytronics customer service is a joke. Have been nothing but disappointed. When and if you do finally get in contact with them they want you to pay to ship it back to them. I and to contact amazon again in order to get a return approved finally.

I let it work using only bluetooth. Now the app says the robot is not responding and unplugging the power supply from the electrical outlet is the only way to reset it. When you contact dolphin about this issue, they do act like it's your fault, you a...  Read More

It's now a $2,000 pile of cheap plastic. This hassle and extra costs are not worth the high price. You're better off buying cheaper models and save over $500 because they are misleading you on the features.

Quality


The app works great and i have no regrets buying the sigma


The construction of the filter assembly makes it much easier to clean out vs


Had the pool builders crappy pool cleaner for the last several years and it continued to not clean the pool and get stuck on our stairs


Worked well for 2 months then today it suddenly stopped working

Price


Worth the extra money for this model


The price of the robot is just a fraction of what you already spent on building your pool and it makes pool maintenance so much...  Read More


I expect much more from a 1600 product


Vac line powered electric and a dozen price tiers for any of them

Shipping


I called maytronics customer service located in georgia they sent me a shipping label and 1


Update maytronics paid to ship it back and repair


I live close so i dropped it off and they shipped it back within a few days

Packaging/appearance


It did not come with a remote control

Competitiveness


The sigma is superior to the premier in every way and it is worth the extra money


For the additional 200 the sigma is significantly better than the premier


There is zero comparison to the premier


That is the same difference between the pool robot that came with my pool versus the dolphin sigma

    I have had an old roomba house vacuum and if youve had one you know they just wander around aimlessly and they miss a lot of the floors

    Not only that but it scrubs the tile line which the cheaper ones do not and that is really important
