Glad I made the purchase and made in the USA!
Definitely worth the money. I purchased after a failed LVKE L1 pool vacuum failed after only 2 weeks of use. I searched and researched pool vacs for quite a while after that happened. Since I live in the US I realized everything I saw was made in China. After researching I found this Dolphin made in the USA. I wasn’t crazy about paying a higher price or the fact it is attached to a hose but after receiving it yesterday I am so glad I did! It’s so easy to set up right out of the box. Just attach the hose to the power box and plug it in and turn it on. It’s runs slower than the one that broke and that’s a good thing because you would not believe how well it picks up the finest d debris!Very happy customer and very impressed with this machine!

Amazing robot.
For eight seasons, I manually vacuumed our pool, and this little guy, whom we have named "Flipper," is unreal. The two-hour cycle cleans 100% of the pool, including the benches and stairs. He climbs the walls above the water line and everything in between.We have more debris in the shallow end, and I learned that the algorithm learns where to clean the most, so start it where you see the largest amount of debris in your pool.At first, we saw Flipper doing wheelies across the bottom. I did a little research, and the FAQ from the manufacturer's site stated to place the robot into the pool upside down, and it will right itself. It aids in removing excess air in the unit, and it worked like a charm.For the price, this little guy is a powerhouse.

It even picks up sweetgum balls!
I live in a "cottage community" named Kingwood, TX, just outside of Houston. I don't expect that to mean much to the average Amazon shopper, but it's important to note that Kingwood is marketed as "The Livable Forest". When it was being developed in the 60's, 70's, and 80's, great care was taken to preserve the trees in what had once been timberland owned by paper and wood companies. The foliage is very dense. There is no place in my yard or time of year when pine needles and leaves aren't constantly falling. We even have a sweetgum tree that drops little gumball-sized pinecones that are worse to step on than lego, especially barefoot, like you would be while swimming. Our pool is under constant assault. Raking every day was a hopeless exercise in futility. We bought a battery-operated "leaf blaster" that attaches to the end of a pole and vacuums the leaves into a net bag. When gumballs weren't jamming the impeller, it was such a huge job to vacuum that the kids and I would take turns working and still be too tired to play in the pool when we finished the endeavor.Worse, if the pool started to get algae, we couldn't see the bottom to clean out the debris. We would treat/shock/filter out the algae and discover a layer of leaves at the bottom, still covered in algae that would re-infest the pool as soon as they were stirred up by a rake or the leaf blaster, leaving us blind to continue removing them, and the maddening vicious cycle would continue. It's a 27' pool with two pump inlets, so adding skimmers to those helped catch a LOT of the leaves and debris before it sank to the bottom, but the skimmers can't catch everything and the cycle continued.I asked a few neighbors, did a lot of online research, and sifted through hundreds of pool cleaning options (just watch what happens to your facebook timeline after you've googled it a few times). A highly-trusted colleague and friend bragged on and on about her Dolphin robot and the reviews were good, so I got hung up between the E10 and the more expensive Escape. The Escape purports to be able to climb walls and have better mapping of the pool surface (plus wifi/app controls, IIRC). I decided to save myself $200 and go with the cheaper E10.NO REGRETS! It doesn't matter if the water is clear or not. Just drop it in, turn it on, and walk away. Come back in an hour, empty the basket, and start it again. Lather, rinse, repeat until the basket comes out clean. It picks up leaves, pine needles, GUMBALLS, and even small sticks! If algae rears its ugly head, we can be confident that there is no debris left on the floor of the pool before kicking it with only one treatment and shock.It's not supposed to be able to climb walls, but it does occasionally go up the wall to the water line before backing back down. Reviewers complaining about it doing wheelies don't seem to understand how it works. This is how it reorients itself to change directions.An external bag instead of a filter basket would be nice so that I could add a bigger one, but then the filtration might not be as good. This isn't much of a shortcoming, because the basket is extremely easy to remove and hose out. The screens can even be popped out of it for more thorough cleaning.The power supply did fail on ours less than a year after we bought it but Maytronics, for their part, was great. They had me email some photos of the failing unit's behavior, asked a few simple questions, then sent me a new one without even asking that I return the old one (I'm a pretty technical guy, so I may try to fix it as a spare, should the new one die after the warranty expires).I REALLY wish the wire had a swivel joint on the robot (it does swivel at the power supply, sort of). After a couple of cycles, the wire will be hopelessly wound up and tangled. It's not too much of a hassle to disconnect it from the power supply and untangle it, but it shouldn't be necessary. Some users have reported good results by putting foam pool noodles over the wire to prevent it from tangling. I may try that.All in all, we have a huge above-ground pool in a notoriously hot environment with lots of trees. It's a perfect storm of conditions that can turn pool ownership into a nightmare. This robot changed our lives and was worth the expense.

Cable length
This model is much more reliable due to the track design compared to my old Nautilus plus that was twice as expensive. I had issues with Nautilus Plus tracks always falling off due to poor design. E20 is much better. Also, the cable length coming off the box is 49ft for those wondering. Not sure why they didn’t put that in the specs.

Can do bigger than 33ft pool, but beware automatic pool covers
I would beware if you have an automatic pool cover - I was interested to know if it would work for me, since I have an automatic pool cover instead of a fence. I am not certain but there is some damage at the edge in a few places (has never been before) and I suspect it is because the robot surfaces at the edges.Regarding length, my pool is 50 ft. long and this robot does it fine. I just run the cable through the skimmer hatch. Cable is about 50 ft long.
