How the Dolphin Odyssey Scored
Highlights
Key Features
Easy clean. Easy-to-use, robotic pool cleaner equipped with an anti-tangling swivel cable, allowing Sigma to move freely around large residential pools up to 50 feet with ease. Backed by a 3 year quality assurance.
No messy bags to clean. Massive top-loading cartridge filters captures and traps fine and ultra-fine debris for an optimal clean swimming pool.
Powerful, dual scrubbing brushes thoroughly and efficiently attacks tough contaminants removing algae and bacteria from floor, walls and waterline for a deep clean in 2.5 hours.
Just say when. Set Sigma’s weekly scheduler to automatically clean for you- daily, 2x per week, or 3x per week. Connect your Sigma to your smartphone using Bluetooth to spot clean when needed.
Smart Navigation. Advanced navigation and scanning software ensures your pool is cleaned using the most efficient route without letting obstacles get in the way.
What features does it have?
The Dolphin Odyssey is one of the more capable cleaners in this lineup, pairing thorough floor-and-wall cleaning with ultra-fine NanoFilter media for noticeably crisper water. It's a strong 2026 pick for owners who want a cleaner pool with less effort.
Wall Climbing
Clean like a pro. With wall coverage, the Dolphin Odyssey can clean and scale your walls with precision and power. While Wall Climbing is a great feature, don't get this confused with the superior waterline cleaning feature.
What is Dolphin Odyssey missing?
Waterline Cleaning
Dolphin Odyssey does not included waterline cleaning. Not only is this an essential feature that you'll want when looking for a pool robot, but one you will likely need. Waterline cleaning enables the robot to climb and reach the dirtest part of your swimming pool. Without this feature, you'll still need to manually clean your waterline by hand with a brush to prevent any algae or scum that builds up. It is one feature that you'll need that is not included with the Dolphin Odyssey.
Leaf Bag
With leaves being a common issue, it would be safe to assume most pool robots utilize a leaf bag. Well, no so fast. Nearly every robotic pool cleaner is missing a leaf bag, except the Dolphin Premier. If you have a lot of leaves, this is the best pool robot for leaves. Not to mention the Premier's 3 year warranty, Dual Commercial Motors, and Multi-Media™ make it one of the best models available.
The Odyssey already includes ultra-fine NanoFilter media, but it isn't part of the ProLine family and doesn't use ProLine commercial-grade motors. If you want that extra commercial-grade power and durability, take a look at a ProLine cleaner like the Dolphin Premier or a Max-Series model.
What's included with the Dolphin Odyssey?
The Dolphin Odyssey includes everything you'll need. Here is what is included with the unit:
- Dolphin Odyssey Unit
- 60 ft Cord with Anti-Tangle Swivel
- Programmable Weekly Timer
- Ultrafine NanoFilter™ Filters
- Standard Mesh Filters
- 3 Year Warranty
How to set up the Dolphin Odyssey
Simply plug and play. All robotic pool cleaners are ready to go right out of the box. No booster pump or assembly needed. The Odyssey has everything needed to get started in its box. It's that easy.
