Nautilus CC Plus Description

Overall, the Dolphin Nautilus CC Plus falls short when compared to the Gen 2 Dolphin ProLine™ and Dolphin Max-Series™, as it is missing several essential features such as NanoFilters™, MaxBin™, and Waterline Cleaning. So if you're looking for a robotic pool cleaner with these essential features, we recommend looking at other Dolphin models.

The Missing Filter

The Dolphin Nautilus CC Plus only includes the standard fine filter and doesn't include the newer NanoFiltration as found on other models. This filter allows the pool robot to capture smaller debris that would otherwise pass through the standard filter.

Learn more about NanoFilters™

More Parts. More Problems.

Unlike the later generation of Max-Series Robots, the Dolphin Nautilus CC Plus uses the older Gen 1 smaller filter cartridges and does not use the MaxBin™. The Max-Series robots have 50-225% larger capacity with their upgrade MaxBin when compared to the Dolphin Nautilus CC Plus. So if you're looking for easy to clean, you may not get that with the Nautilus CC Plus.

About MaxBin™

No Waterline Cleaning

Without waterline cleaning, the Dolphin Nautilus CC Plus only cleans the floor and partial walls of your pool - leaving the entire waterline to you. The waterline, also know as the scum-line, is the dirtest part of your pool. So keep this in mind when shopping for a pool robot.

SAN - 4 Stars

Does an excellent job. Easy to use and clean.

Sher - 4 Stars

The media could not be loaded. Edit: after a week it FINALLY stopped getting stuck but wanted to wait to see if it would again before updating this review. Don't know why it took so long to map the pool or whatever happened. It's about twice a week now when it does get stuck so at least it's better. After spending almost a thousand bucks and setting it up step by step with the wifi app, it ran for 10 minutes then got stuck. I waited for 10 more minutes to see if it would correct itself and it never did. Then it went to the other side of the pool and got stuck again. My brother in law has this and his would get stuck on the steps but I thought it was because he had a kidney shaped pool. Nope! Mine is a plane Jane rectangle pool and it gets stuck on my basic steps. Get it together Dolphin, this is supposed to be a smart cleaner that maps out your pool. There needs to be a way to avoid the steps using the app or at least program it to where if it doesn't move for 5 minutes then it needs to lower the pressure so it can fall to the floor and try again. What a waste on money and time.

Grant R - 5 Stars

Here’s the real world scenario our dolphin thing has lived through for two years and counting: We leave this thing in the outside elements more than we should, either at the bottom of the pool or outside the pool frying in the Texas sun. We don’t even own a cover for it. It’s had to cruise around the bottom of the pool when we’ve kind of “let it go” before, and has even handled that pretty well with leaves and random stuff at the bottom of the pool. The kids have occasionally tried to stand on it while it’s driving around. They’ve pulled it up by it’s cord to plop it out of the pool and get it out of their way. Only issue we ever had was, a handful of months into ownership, the little computer box portion stopped working. We contacted the seller and a replacement was promptly sent our way. It’s been problem-free ever since.

RC - 4 Stars

UPDATE: I am adding two extra stars because the unit seems to have gotten an over Wi-Fi update and now seems to get stuck less than it was before. It is not a “smart” unit that learns your pool, but the cycle seems to have been changed which causes it to free itself from jams more often. ORIGINAL RECIEW: I was hoping that this would be the solution to years of fighting with a pressure sided cleaner. It isn’t. If you have any cutouts, stairs or forms in your pool be prepared to stand by for two hours to release it every time it gets stuck. I watched the unit struggle to free itself for 30 minutes. It’s a programming issue on the unit, because each time it would have been able to escape if only it went backwards for more than two seconds before accelerating forward and slamming right back into the same stuck location again. I had to free it multiple times from three separate corner locations in the pool. At least my Polaris had the back flow valve that could launch it out of any trapped location and across the pool. I am very disappointed. The only positive is that it does seem to clean well, but I would had bought a much cheaper unit if I knew I would have to babysit it so closely.

TD - 4 Stars

We’ve had our cleaner for just less than a week. I chose this model because it was recommended by a friend who also has one. We have ran it twice and so far so good. We have a 20x40 rectangular gunite pool. It doesn’t always get the corners great, but I’m happy doing those on my own if the rest gets clean. I’m hoping to give this little guy 5 stars once we’ve had it longer. We did buy the cart and cover. The cover seems a bit flimsy, but it’ll keep the dust off. Definitely buy the cart!!
