Resumen

TLDRDolphin Skimmy je prvi avtonomni čistilec bazenov blagovne znamke Dolphin, ki ponuja edinstveno kombinacijo solarnega polnjenja in naprednih funkcij, kot so pametno zaznavanje in čiščenje vodne linije. Ima privlačen dizajn in je lahkega materiala, kar olajša njegovo rabo. Kljub svoji visoki ceni ponuja več funkcij, ki jih konkurenca ne dosega, kot je sposobnost delovanja z tradicionalnimi bazenskimi čistilci. Vendar pa je pomanjkljivost, da ne ponuja druge možnosti polnjenja, kar omejuje uporabo v zimskih mesecih. Ključno je tudi, da lahko skimer deluje ponoči, če je nastavljena pravilna časovnica.

    Številne prednosti vključujejo sončno polnjenje z uporabo senzorjev za energijo in vrhunsko zasnovo, vendar je pomembno omeniti, da nima druge možnosti polnjenja, kar je velika slabost za uporabnike, ki bazen uporabljajo pozimi ali v mraku.

  • 00:00:07
    dolphin skimmy is the only skimmer on
  • 00:00:10
    the market right now that can do this
  • 00:00:12
    that can work in conjunction with a
  • 00:00:14
    corded cleaner a hose cleaner
  • 00:00:17
    awesome what is up guys today we have
  • 00:00:20
    this dolphin automatic pool skimmer here
  • 00:00:22
    yes dolphin big name brand has finally
  • 00:00:25
    released their first ever automatic pull
  • 00:00:27
    skimmer here so before we get into to
  • 00:00:30
    this review I want to mention I am not
  • 00:00:31
    sponsored for this skimmer here I paid
  • 00:00:34
    out of pocket here I will include
  • 00:00:35
    features that I like and features that I
  • 00:00:37
    don't like if any also keep in mind this
  • 00:00:40
    is how the skimmer Works in my pool back
  • 00:00:42
    here I have a variable speed pump
  • 00:00:44
    depending on if you have a onspeed pump
  • 00:00:46
    you might have to use this during
  • 00:00:48
    different times of the day keep that in
  • 00:00:50
    mind overall I do hope this review helps
  • 00:00:53
    so this right here is dolphin's first
  • 00:00:55
    ever automatic pool skimmer yes why did
  • 00:00:57
    they take so long to release their first
  • 00:00:59
    ever pool skimmer here well I got to say
  • 00:01:02
    it's because they worked on it and they
  • 00:01:04
    made it pretty awesome now it's been
  • 00:01:06
    about 2 3 years since the last few
  • 00:01:09
    skimmers of different brands have been
  • 00:01:10
    released and so far these other name
  • 00:01:13
    brands like this one right here the APR
  • 00:01:15
    Surfer S1 or this one right here the
  • 00:01:18
    beta se+ these are really great pool
  • 00:01:21
    skimmers here they work really well in
  • 00:01:23
    the pool they're automatic and they're
  • 00:01:25
    just amazing at what they do keeping the
  • 00:01:28
    pool surface clean so so how does the
  • 00:01:30
    dolphin skimmy here perform in
  • 00:01:32
    comparison to these two skimmers that
  • 00:01:34
    have been around for quite a bit now
  • 00:01:36
    well I got to say dolphin has an
  • 00:01:39
    advantage here but at the same time
  • 00:01:40
    there's also a disadvantage before I
  • 00:01:43
    jump into this and tell you what makes
  • 00:01:44
    this dolphin skimmy so great I'm going
  • 00:01:46
    to tell you straight up what makes it
  • 00:01:48
    not so great number one thing about this
  • 00:01:50
    is the fact that it is extremely
  • 00:01:52
    expensive for a pool skimmer yes this
  • 00:01:55
    one right here is double the price of
  • 00:01:58
    these skimmers over here the a Surfer S1
  • 00:02:00
    the beta se+ over here is half the cost
  • 00:02:04
    this means that the dolphin skimy here
  • 00:02:06
    for the amount you pay for the dolphin
  • 00:02:07
    skimmy you can get both of these for the
  • 00:02:09
    same price yes now why is this dolphin
  • 00:02:12
    skimmy so expensive well I got to say
  • 00:02:15
    there are a ton of extra features to
  • 00:02:17
    this skimy here that I have not seen on
  • 00:02:19
    any other skimmer on the market and I've
  • 00:02:21
    used a ton of skimmers in addition to
  • 00:02:24
    the number of features you also get this
  • 00:02:26
    right here you see this dolphin this is
  • 00:02:28
    a dolphin brand cleaner this is a
  • 00:02:30
    matronics brand cleaner so you get the
  • 00:02:32
    reputation the brand name behind a
  • 00:02:36
    cleaner like this the reason why they
  • 00:02:38
    took so long to release a skimmer is
  • 00:02:40
    because they wanted to make sure that it
  • 00:02:42
    was a great skimmer and that's exactly
  • 00:02:44
    what the skimmy is a really great
  • 00:02:46
    skimmer but again it is very expensive
  • 00:02:50
    so is it worth that cost well it depends
  • 00:02:52
    it depends on if you're willing to pay
  • 00:02:54
    double the average market price right
  • 00:02:56
    now for a really good pool skimmer like
  • 00:02:59
    the beta and the a
  • 00:03:00
    and it depends on if you need all these
  • 00:03:02
    extra features now the second
  • 00:03:05
    disadvantage to the dolphin skimy here
  • 00:03:08
    although it has a ton of really cool
  • 00:03:09
    features this skimmer here takes a
  • 00:03:11
    number of steps forward yes but it takes
  • 00:03:14
    one really big step backwards yes this
  • 00:03:17
    skimy right here can only be charged
  • 00:03:20
    with the power of the sun there is no
  • 00:03:23
    other charging option there is no Port
  • 00:03:25
    anywhere that you can plug into the wall
  • 00:03:27
    to charge it that way so this means that
  • 00:03:29
    when the sun comes down when it's fall
  • 00:03:32
    and winter season when it's dark outside
  • 00:03:34
    and you need to run this you want to run
  • 00:03:36
    this you can't because there is no other
  • 00:03:38
    charging option the only way is to put
  • 00:03:40
    this into the Sun and lay it in the sun
  • 00:03:42
    and let it charge itself there is no
  • 00:03:45
    second charging option and that's
  • 00:03:46
    unfortunate because people like me I
  • 00:03:48
    keep the pool open all year long and
  • 00:03:50
    sometimes I want to use this when it's
  • 00:03:52
    darker outside I want to run this but
  • 00:03:54
    there's no way to charge this in
  • 00:03:56
    addition to the sun if you close your
  • 00:03:59
    pool for the SE anyways doesn't really
  • 00:04:01
    matter it works perfectly fine just as a
  • 00:04:04
    seasonal cleaner during the swim season
  • 00:04:06
    it will work amazing when the sun is out
  • 00:04:08
    but if you're like me and you would like
  • 00:04:10
    that second charging option a ton of
  • 00:04:12
    cleaners bigger name brands even the off
  • 00:04:15
    brands have a second charging option and
  • 00:04:18
    for the price of this skimmy here I
  • 00:04:20
    would expect it to at least have that
  • 00:04:23
    and that's a major disadvantage there so
  • 00:04:25
    if you can get over the fact that this
  • 00:04:27
    is an expensive cleaner you can
  • 00:04:29
    understand that there are a ton of
  • 00:04:30
    features but you can also get over the
  • 00:04:32
    fact that it does not have a second
  • 00:04:34
    charging option aside from that it is a
  • 00:04:37
    really amazing cleaner a really amazing
  • 00:04:41
    automatic pool surface sker so what kind
  • 00:04:43
    of extra features are included what
  • 00:04:45
    makes this dolphin skimm different than
  • 00:04:47
    the rest and is it worth the price let's
  • 00:04:49
    talk about it here first off the dolphin
  • 00:04:51
    skimy right here has a different design
  • 00:04:54
    than I'm used to over here it's kind of
  • 00:04:55
    got this surfboard design too you see
  • 00:04:58
    that right there it fls in the pool like
  • 00:05:00
    a paddle like a board in the pool and at
  • 00:05:03
    first it kind of looked weird but it
  • 00:05:04
    grows on you it looks pretty cool right
  • 00:05:07
    at the top over here you have this huge
  • 00:05:09
    solar panel here to absorb all that
  • 00:05:11
    sunlight remember this is an automatic
  • 00:05:13
    pool skimmer so it works off of the
  • 00:05:15
    power of the sun when the sun is blazing
  • 00:05:18
    when sunlight hitting this panel right
  • 00:05:19
    here it is absorbing that sunlight and
  • 00:05:22
    it's charging the battery yes this
  • 00:05:25
    skimmer in particular Works a little bit
  • 00:05:27
    differently than other skimmers on the
  • 00:05:29
    market some skimmers some other brands
  • 00:05:31
    will do the same thing but this skimmer
  • 00:05:33
    what it does is when it's on and in the
  • 00:05:35
    pool and the sun is actually on top of
  • 00:05:37
    it it will use just sun power to run it
  • 00:05:41
    in the pool it will not switch over to
  • 00:05:43
    the battery unless there is no more sunl
  • 00:05:46
    to charge it to move it along the pool
  • 00:05:48
    once there's no more sun what it does is
  • 00:05:51
    it uses the battery and it runs just off
  • 00:05:53
    the battery power until it turns on the
  • 00:05:55
    next day when it gets enough sunlight to
  • 00:05:57
    turn itself on a lot of skimmers on the
  • 00:05:59
    market Market will run the battery off
  • 00:06:02
    and on throughout the day even when
  • 00:06:04
    there's sunlight right on top of it this
  • 00:06:06
    will use sunlight to power it and then
  • 00:06:09
    switch over to battery so it lasts
  • 00:06:11
    longer now physically here this skimmer
  • 00:06:13
    here is very lightweight this only comes
  • 00:06:16
    in at about 9 lb here so it is one of
  • 00:06:19
    the lightest skimmers on the market you
  • 00:06:21
    get points for that easier to take in
  • 00:06:23
    and out of the pool one thing I don't
  • 00:06:25
    like about this is this handle right
  • 00:06:27
    here you see this right here this is the
  • 00:06:28
    handle right here
  • 00:06:30
    a lot of skimmers actually every other
  • 00:06:32
    skimmer on the market has a handle that
  • 00:06:34
    is separate on one side or the other
  • 00:06:36
    that you pull outwards makes it easy to
  • 00:06:38
    pull it out this one you actually have
  • 00:06:40
    to stick your hand in and grip it and
  • 00:06:42
    pull it out and every time you do this a
  • 00:06:45
    few things happen one this is inside the
  • 00:06:48
    pool under the water so when you stick
  • 00:06:49
    your hand inside you're touching all
  • 00:06:52
    that debris that's inside of right here
  • 00:06:54
    this is the debris basket at the bottom
  • 00:06:55
    and your hand will sometimes touch that
  • 00:06:57
    water whatever it is inside bugs leaves
  • 00:07:01
    Twigs baby alligators maybe might be
  • 00:07:03
    inside we don't know so you will get
  • 00:07:07
    your hand wet when you're pulling this
  • 00:07:08
    out of the pool also in the sun you see
  • 00:07:12
    how close the solar panel is to this
  • 00:07:14
    right here if you touch that it is hot
  • 00:07:16
    so you might actually kind of burn
  • 00:07:19
    yourself a little bit it's not that bad
  • 00:07:21
    for me I can touch this and it's not too
  • 00:07:24
    hot but for other people that are more
  • 00:07:25
    sensitive to heat this may be a little
  • 00:07:28
    too hot so when you're grabbing this it
  • 00:07:29
    does get quite hot you see my thumb
  • 00:07:31
    right here most people will grab a
  • 00:07:33
    handle with their finger outwards just
  • 00:07:35
    like I do right here and I'm touching it
  • 00:07:37
    and it's hot right now so keep that in
  • 00:07:39
    mind I wish there was a better design
  • 00:07:41
    for the handle here but it attributes to
  • 00:07:44
    its design here now on this skimmer
  • 00:07:47
    itself there is no extended bumper all
  • 00:07:51
    around here is the bumper in itself you
  • 00:07:53
    see this if I spin around this kind of
  • 00:07:55
    turquoise teal color right here that is
  • 00:07:57
    this bumper It's like a rubber material
  • 00:08:00
    and it's designed like this all around
  • 00:08:01
    it because when this moves in the pool
  • 00:08:04
    it will hit the walls of your pool yes
  • 00:08:07
    it is designed to hit the walls of the
  • 00:08:09
    pool it's also designed to move around
  • 00:08:11
    the pool as well there is no preset
  • 00:08:14
    pattern to this it is a random pattern
  • 00:08:16
    when it moves along the pool it will
  • 00:08:17
    sense objects in the pool and turn
  • 00:08:19
    around and move around it but at the
  • 00:08:21
    same time it will also hit the walls now
  • 00:08:24
    it hit the walls for a reason when it
  • 00:08:26
    hits the wall it actually has this extra
  • 00:08:28
    feature really cool extra feature one of
  • 00:08:30
    those extra features that I was talking
  • 00:08:32
    about that makes it so cool it has what
  • 00:08:34
    they call waterline cleaning and debris
  • 00:08:38
    washing yes what that does is basically
  • 00:08:40
    when this is coming up to a wall and it
  • 00:08:42
    hits the wall what it does is it keeps
  • 00:08:45
    hitting the wall now it's not stuck or
  • 00:08:48
    anything like that but what it does when
  • 00:08:49
    it hits is that it spins this paddle
  • 00:08:52
    right over here and when this spins this
  • 00:08:54
    paddle right here water will shoot out
  • 00:08:55
    of it will shoot towards the wall and
  • 00:08:58
    the debris that's on the the wall on the
  • 00:09:00
    water line will become loose and gets
  • 00:09:03
    suctioned into this goes inwards into
  • 00:09:06
    the debris basket that's pretty awesome
  • 00:09:08
    it cleans the water line at the same
  • 00:09:11
    time as it's floating around the pool a
  • 00:09:13
    totally extra feature do you really need
  • 00:09:15
    waterline cleaning no not necessarily
  • 00:09:17
    but it is cool this is beneficial for
  • 00:09:19
    people that have robotic pool cleaners
  • 00:09:21
    that don't scrub the waterline this is
  • 00:09:23
    beneficial for people that manually
  • 00:09:25
    scrub the water line this will help in
  • 00:09:27
    cleaning the water line awesome now on
  • 00:09:30
    the front of this right here I want to
  • 00:09:32
    point these out here this up here this
  • 00:09:34
    down here both sides here these are its
  • 00:09:36
    sensors here it uses a ton of sensors
  • 00:09:39
    right here at the top surface and below
  • 00:09:41
    the surface of the water this is below
  • 00:09:43
    the surface of the water and what it
  • 00:09:45
    does here is it detects objects this
  • 00:09:47
    skimmer hands down the best feature
  • 00:09:50
    about this skimmer right here is the
  • 00:09:52
    fact that it has what they call Smart
  • 00:09:54
    detect with Those sensors right there
  • 00:09:56
    it's able to detect the top surface
  • 00:09:58
    debris and the bottom debris and it can
  • 00:10:01
    distinguish cords cables and hoses in
  • 00:10:05
    your pool yes take a look right over
  • 00:10:07
    here you see this cleaner right here you
  • 00:10:09
    see how there's this huge cable right
  • 00:10:12
    over here this can go in your
  • 00:10:15
    pool if you take a look at this cleaner
  • 00:10:18
    right here you see this hose right here
  • 00:10:20
    yes this can go in your pool and be used
  • 00:10:23
    at the same time with the skimmer in
  • 00:10:26
    conjunction with the skimmer in the pool
  • 00:10:28
    at the same time no other skimmer on the
  • 00:10:30
    market right now you can use both a
  • 00:10:33
    corded cleaner of some sort whether it
  • 00:10:35
    have a cable or a hose with a automatic
  • 00:10:39
    pool skimmer there is no other skimmer
  • 00:10:40
    aside from this one right here this one
  • 00:10:42
    is able to detect those hoses those
  • 00:10:45
    cables in the pool and work around it
  • 00:10:48
    it'll either move around it or go right
  • 00:10:50
    over it and be fine it won't get stuck
  • 00:10:52
    in the pool and that is its number one
  • 00:10:54
    feature you can use this with corded
  • 00:10:57
    cleaners of any sort people have been
  • 00:10:59
    reluctant to purchase automatic pool
  • 00:11:01
    skimmers because they want to keep their
  • 00:11:04
    corded cleaners I get it I understand I
  • 00:11:06
    use corded cleaners during different
  • 00:11:07
    times of the year when I get a ton of
  • 00:11:10
    debris when I need constant power to
  • 00:11:12
    turn the cleaner on I prefer a corded
  • 00:11:14
    cleaner over a cordless cleaner and in
  • 00:11:16
    the past I couldn't use an automatic
  • 00:11:18
    pull skimmer in conjunction with it you
  • 00:11:20
    just can't do it because they get
  • 00:11:21
    tangled up in the cord in the hose but
  • 00:11:24
    with this skimmy right here this dolphin
  • 00:11:26
    skimmy right here you can and that
  • 00:11:28
    changes the game you no longer have to
  • 00:11:31
    wait to buy a cord dis cleaner and use
  • 00:11:33
    it with this automatic pull skimmer you
  • 00:11:35
    can use any corded any hose cleaner with
  • 00:11:38
    this skimmy here and that is its best
  • 00:11:41
    feature hands down now this dolphin
  • 00:11:43
    skimmy here works really well out of the
  • 00:11:45
    box you can use this as a simple
  • 00:11:47
    plug-and playay type of skimmer here
  • 00:11:49
    where all you have to do is turn it on
  • 00:11:52
    put it in the pool and let it clean and
  • 00:11:53
    that's it you do not have to use the
  • 00:11:55
    online app that it comes with that you
  • 00:11:58
    can download and use you will have
  • 00:11:59
    Bluetooth you will have Wi-Fi that you
  • 00:12:01
    have to connect and use this if you want
  • 00:12:03
    to use the online app but I'm here to
  • 00:12:05
    tell you that you don't have to use it
  • 00:12:07
    when you take this out of the box I want
  • 00:12:09
    to show you this here you see this right
  • 00:12:10
    here this is the basket the debris
  • 00:12:12
    basket here let me actually pull this
  • 00:12:13
    out a little right here and to show you
  • 00:12:15
    a few things first off it's a pretty big
  • 00:12:18
    debris basket right here pretty cool on
  • 00:12:20
    the back right here you see this little
  • 00:12:22
    piece right here this flap right here
  • 00:12:23
    works wonders what this does is it keeps
  • 00:12:25
    debris from exiting out of the bask yes
  • 00:12:29
    a lot of skimmers on the market will
  • 00:12:31
    release debris when it's paused or
  • 00:12:33
    stopped in the pool it'll float forward
  • 00:12:35
    but because of this flap right here it
  • 00:12:36
    keeps it inside awesome out of the box
  • 00:12:39
    when you get it it comes installed with
  • 00:12:41
    these two little orange Clips right here
  • 00:12:43
    I'm going to go ahead and take this off
  • 00:12:44
    here and show you here easy to take on
  • 00:12:47
    just like that and to take off just like
  • 00:12:49
    that it's really simple to put them back
  • 00:12:51
    on and to take them off and you don't
  • 00:12:52
    want to throw these away you want to
  • 00:12:54
    keep this and these are used to help you
  • 00:12:56
    basically keep your cleaner on and off
  • 00:12:58
    when when you get this out of the box if
  • 00:13:00
    you take these Clips off right here all
  • 00:13:02
    you have to do to turn it on you see
  • 00:13:04
    that inside you just line the basket up
  • 00:13:06
    right over here when you push this in
  • 00:13:08
    all the way inside it's not inside all
  • 00:13:09
    the way here yet but when I push this
  • 00:13:11
    all the way in guess what
  • 00:13:13
    happens you hear that it beeps the
  • 00:13:16
    lights right here are flashing right
  • 00:13:17
    over here you can see that it is turning
  • 00:13:20
    on right now the moment I pulled this
  • 00:13:23
    out it stops that is your Auto on and
  • 00:13:27
    off feature out of the box if you you
  • 00:13:29
    take these little Clips off and you push
  • 00:13:31
    it in that's all you have to do to turn
  • 00:13:32
    it on that's all you have to do you want
  • 00:13:34
    to keep these clips so that you can put
  • 00:13:36
    them right back on in case you are
  • 00:13:38
    storing this for a long period of time
  • 00:13:40
    and you want it to be in the off
  • 00:13:43
    position you don't want them to turn on
  • 00:13:44
    automatically because when you push this
  • 00:13:46
    all the way in take a look right here it
  • 00:13:48
    doesn't go all the way in the clips stop
  • 00:13:51
    it from being pushed all the way in so
  • 00:13:52
    it doesn't turn on to store it away when
  • 00:13:54
    it's out of season so remember to keep
  • 00:13:56
    these little orange clips for storage
  • 00:13:58
    here
  • 00:13:59
    now that online app is actually pretty
  • 00:14:01
    cool and I got to be honest with you
  • 00:14:03
    here if you want to use a simple
  • 00:14:05
    plug-and-play cleaner the dolphin skimmy
  • 00:14:07
    here for the price is not the way to go
  • 00:14:09
    go pick up something like this a surfer
  • 00:14:11
    right here go pick up the beta over here
  • 00:14:14
    these are cheaper and they work
  • 00:14:15
    perfectly fine as plug andplay type of
  • 00:14:17
    cleaners go pick those up instead if you
  • 00:14:20
    don't plan on using the app okay guys so
  • 00:14:23
    this is the My Dolphin skimmy app super
  • 00:14:25
    easy just download it there go ahead and
  • 00:14:27
    go inside here and you connect it to
  • 00:14:29
    Bluetooth and you hook it up to your
  • 00:14:30
    skimmer right there mine is already
  • 00:14:32
    hooked up it was super easy to set up
  • 00:14:34
    you just kind of push the tray in and
  • 00:14:36
    spin the wheel and use the app and it
  • 00:14:37
    connects really simple on the top right
  • 00:14:39
    corner you have your battery percentage
  • 00:14:41
    to the left of that you have your Wi-Fi
  • 00:14:43
    indicator to the left of that with a W
  • 00:14:45
    that stands for your wat how much of a
  • 00:14:47
    charge it's currently accepting so
  • 00:14:49
    that's neat right now it's not in the
  • 00:14:51
    Sun so it's not taking a charge and to
  • 00:14:53
    the left of that you have your
  • 00:14:55
    temperature basically the temperature of
  • 00:14:56
    the pool so this is very informative
  • 00:14:59
    here now at the bottom here you have the
  • 00:15:00
    start clean button you can hear it turn
  • 00:15:03
    on right there and it'll basically run
  • 00:15:05
    for about 10 minutes here that's what I
  • 00:15:06
    have is set on eal mode here but let's
  • 00:15:08
    go ahead and stop that super simple to
  • 00:15:10
    the right in the center it says manual
  • 00:15:12
    drive and this lets you control the
  • 00:15:14
    skimmer like an RC C in the pool forward
  • 00:15:17
    backwards left right whatever Direction
  • 00:15:19
    when you go forward you can actually hit
  • 00:15:20
    the cruise control button and it lets it
  • 00:15:22
    go forward by itself I turned it off and
  • 00:15:25
    then you have the clean wall button
  • 00:15:26
    right here that focuses on cleaning the
  • 00:15:28
    wall with that waterline cleaning mode
  • 00:15:30
    and that debris splashing let's go ahead
  • 00:15:32
    and turn that off so that's neat let's
  • 00:15:34
    go back over here on the right where it
  • 00:15:36
    says settings click on that and you can
  • 00:15:37
    see right there there's a little red dot
  • 00:15:39
    to tell me that there is a firmware
  • 00:15:40
    update so it does support overthe a
  • 00:15:43
    updates which is really neat now let's
  • 00:15:45
    go ahead and go to the top here and show
  • 00:15:46
    you all these different settings you can
  • 00:15:49
    change right here this is really cool
  • 00:15:51
    auto start will turn on and on
  • 00:15:52
    automatically the speed mode there's
  • 00:15:54
    different speeds here you can change so
  • 00:15:56
    that's also neat the water edge cleaning
  • 00:15:59
    with that waterline cleaning you can
  • 00:16:01
    pretty much tell to clean more often or
  • 00:16:04
    just focus entirely on the water line by
  • 00:16:07
    itself I'm going to keep it on eco mode
  • 00:16:09
    there and go back here there's the water
  • 00:16:12
    clearity you want to make sure you set
  • 00:16:13
    it to how clear your water is in the
  • 00:16:16
    pool you have a nightlight which is
  • 00:16:17
    totally useless but it is cool to see
  • 00:16:20
    I'll leave it on still over here and
  • 00:16:22
    then you have your debris washing which
  • 00:16:24
    will Splash water in conjunction with
  • 00:16:26
    that water edge cleaning over here you
  • 00:16:28
    have that really really cool smart
  • 00:16:29
    detect feature best feature in my
  • 00:16:31
    opinion to avoid the hoses and cables in
  • 00:16:34
    the pool so you can use corded cables
  • 00:16:36
    you can use pressure suction side
  • 00:16:38
    cleaners in the pool at the same time as
  • 00:16:40
    this dolphin skimy here now at the
  • 00:16:42
    bottom of this it says leave search and
  • 00:16:44
    this focuses on just finding big leaf
  • 00:16:47
    debris in the pool so that's another
  • 00:16:48
    cool option you can use I'm going to
  • 00:16:51
    keep it on the void hose and cable now
  • 00:16:53
    every now and then you see that it did
  • 00:16:55
    back out so it will disconnect every now
  • 00:16:57
    and then but you see that it goes right
  • 00:16:58
    back inside so that's normal for a
  • 00:17:00
    Bluetooth Wi-Fi connection right there
  • 00:17:02
    I'm going to go ahead and go back to the
  • 00:17:03
    settings here now over here distance to
  • 00:17:06
    edge you can tell how close the cleaner
  • 00:17:08
    will get to the edge of your pool really
  • 00:17:10
    useful you have a pool that's kind of
  • 00:17:12
    like an infinity pool where you don't
  • 00:17:13
    have an edge you can get it to stay away
  • 00:17:15
    from that so it doesn't go over the edge
  • 00:17:17
    so that's neat and in conjunction with
  • 00:17:18
    that you have something called pull type
  • 00:17:20
    where you have a pull and a natural pull
  • 00:17:22
    is just like any in ground above ground
  • 00:17:24
    pool great natural is if you have a pond
  • 00:17:27
    of some sort where you have plants or
  • 00:17:29
    other objects you don't want the skimmer
  • 00:17:30
    to get attached to you can set it to
  • 00:17:32
    natural and it won't go to the edge of
  • 00:17:34
    the pool or the edge of the pond so I'm
  • 00:17:37
    going to keep mine's on pool right there
  • 00:17:38
    so that's a really neat feature smart
  • 00:17:40
    solar recharge is on because obviously
  • 00:17:43
    we want it to go to the brightest the
  • 00:17:45
    most Sun parts of the pool to charge
  • 00:17:47
    this battery faster and then you have
  • 00:17:48
    your wheels unblock if anything gets
  • 00:17:50
    jammed in there it will basically force
  • 00:17:53
    it you can force it to spin and get it
  • 00:17:55
    loose or leave it on auto I leave mine
  • 00:17:56
    on auto there so that it keeps cleaning
  • 00:17:59
    and then you have your alert sound it'll
  • 00:18:00
    beep sounds depending on if something's
  • 00:18:02
    going wrong with it there and here we go
  • 00:18:04
    again it's basically searching for the
  • 00:18:06
    device again again it's a Bluetooth
  • 00:18:08
    Wi-Fi connection here this is a downside
  • 00:18:10
    to this but it also works well when it
  • 00:18:13
    works well so I'm going to go back
  • 00:18:14
    inside here I'm actually glad that it's
  • 00:18:16
    showing that there but let's go back
  • 00:18:18
    down here now you have your cleaning
  • 00:18:20
    schedules here this works with day and
  • 00:18:22
    night you can see that right there you
  • 00:18:23
    can set it to as long as you want to run
  • 00:18:26
    in Cycles all the way up to 2 hours a
  • 00:18:28
    minimum of 10 minutes there so it's up
  • 00:18:30
    to you what you want to set it to run
  • 00:18:32
    and in between that you set your pausing
  • 00:18:34
    time how long you want it to stop before
  • 00:18:37
    it starts again 10 minutes 20 minutes
  • 00:18:39
    wherever it is so you can set that as
  • 00:18:41
    well now in Night Cleaning same thing in
  • 00:18:45
    night you want to actually turn it down
  • 00:18:46
    because obviously there's no sun
  • 00:18:48
    charging it here so you can turn it down
  • 00:18:50
    to basically run a minimum of 10 minutes
  • 00:18:54
    but you can still get it to Run 2 hours
  • 00:18:56
    in the night if you want as well but in
  • 00:18:58
    general if you keep it at a lower amount
  • 00:19:00
    it'll keep the battery up higher because
  • 00:19:02
    it's not charging at night so keep that
  • 00:19:04
    in mind same with the night pause how
  • 00:19:05
    long in between it will pause before it
  • 00:19:07
    turns on again and then you have your
  • 00:19:09
    start delay here you can turn this on to
  • 00:19:11
    save battery before it turns off and
  • 00:19:13
    turns on the next day it does help in
  • 00:19:16
    keeping the battery more charged so that
  • 00:19:18
    it will turn on quicker so that's neat
  • 00:19:20
    and aside from that that's pretty much
  • 00:19:22
    it super simple easy to use app the
  • 00:19:25
    major benefit you get with this skimy
  • 00:19:27
    here is the fact that it does have that
  • 00:19:29
    app and you get access to a ton of
  • 00:19:30
    features a ton of cleaning modes and a
  • 00:19:33
    ton of schedules yes schedules in
  • 00:19:36
    particular make this stand out from the
  • 00:19:39
    rest of the cleaners I've ever used
  • 00:19:41
    again I've used a ton of skimmers on the
  • 00:19:43
    market and the dolphin skimm here is the
  • 00:19:45
    first ever cleaner with an online app
  • 00:19:48
    that you can change the schedule the
  • 00:19:49
    cleaning times for this cleaner you can
  • 00:19:52
    schedule this cleaner for daytime
  • 00:19:54
    cleaning you can schedule it for
  • 00:19:56
    nighttime cleaning you can schedule it
  • 00:19:58
    tolean clean certain times while it's on
  • 00:20:00
    for 10 minutes 20 minutes 30 minutes up
  • 00:20:03
    to 2 hours and then you can pause it to
  • 00:20:05
    turn off for another 10 minutes 20
  • 00:20:07
    minutes an hour or whatever it is and
  • 00:20:09
    then turn back on and off on and off
  • 00:20:11
    throughout the day and also throughout
  • 00:20:13
    the night first skimmer to allow you to
  • 00:20:15
    be able to change the cleaning times and
  • 00:20:18
    this does a number of things one it
  • 00:20:20
    saves your battery it'll make sure that
  • 00:20:23
    a cleaner like this will be able to
  • 00:20:25
    charge itself throughout the day and run
  • 00:20:27
    the next day basically I've left this in
  • 00:20:28
    the pool for a week at a time and I
  • 00:20:30
    haven't had to charge it once and it's
  • 00:20:31
    just been moving throughout the pool
  • 00:20:33
    only time I've ever taken it out is to
  • 00:20:35
    empty it out Works awesome that way now
  • 00:20:38
    in addition because you have all that
  • 00:20:40
    control to control the cleaning modes on
  • 00:20:42
    and off if you have a one-speed pump if
  • 00:20:46
    you have to time it so that your skimmer
  • 00:20:48
    is being used when your pump is off you
  • 00:20:50
    no longer have to go to your pump and to
  • 00:20:52
    set the pump that way you just pretty
  • 00:20:55
    much change the settings on your app and
  • 00:20:57
    you can turn this on at the same time is
  • 00:20:58
    when your pump's off so that you get
  • 00:21:00
    more coverage more free motion when it's
  • 00:21:02
    moving along the pool that's another
  • 00:21:04
    benefit of having a schedule also
  • 00:21:06
    because of that schedule what you can do
  • 00:21:08
    is when it's evening time when the sun
  • 00:21:11
    is out you can turn this down you can
  • 00:21:14
    make it slower you can turn it off
  • 00:21:16
    completely and not have it run through
  • 00:21:17
    the night for no reason you can just
  • 00:21:19
    have it set to turn back on later on and
  • 00:21:21
    that's really awesome having the ability
  • 00:21:24
    to change the schedule the cleaning
  • 00:21:25
    modes the on and off time really does
  • 00:21:27
    give you a lot more control and it
  • 00:21:29
    really does make it worth the cost now
  • 00:21:31
    in terms of surface skimmers here there
  • 00:21:33
    is two systems two different types of
  • 00:21:35
    systems there is a propeller system that
  • 00:21:39
    spins underneath the water to move the
  • 00:21:41
    skimmer along the pool there's also a
  • 00:21:43
    paddle system here that stays on top of
  • 00:21:46
    the water and Spins and flaps along the
  • 00:21:48
    water the dolphin skimmy here uses a
  • 00:21:50
    paddle system you see this right here
  • 00:21:52
    there's a paddle on this side right here
  • 00:21:54
    and on the other side right here you've
  • 00:21:55
    got another one right over here and in
  • 00:21:57
    the center right here you've got a
  • 00:21:58
    bigger one right over here as well a
  • 00:22:00
    three paddle system and this helps it
  • 00:22:03
    move along the pool and it moves quite
  • 00:22:05
    quickly in the pool I might say and it
  • 00:22:07
    also keeps debris from floating back
  • 00:22:09
    outside so it's awesome in that sense
  • 00:22:12
    now some other features include the fact
  • 00:22:13
    that there are multiple speeds to the
  • 00:22:15
    skimmer here yes there is fast slow and
  • 00:22:18
    automatic in slow mode it'll move slower
  • 00:22:21
    in the pool it'll make less noise with
  • 00:22:23
    the paddles in the pool so that's nice
  • 00:22:25
    in fast it'll move faster in the pool
  • 00:22:27
    but it will be slightly more louder it's
  • 00:22:29
    not incredibly loud but it will make a
  • 00:22:31
    noticeable noise and on automatic mode
  • 00:22:34
    what it does is it moves fast during the
  • 00:22:37
    day and it moves slow during the night
  • 00:22:39
    which is perfect it'll make less noise
  • 00:22:41
    at night so depending on what speed you
  • 00:22:43
    want it'll act a little differently now
  • 00:22:45
    another kind of neat little feature
  • 00:22:47
    about this skimy here is that when this
  • 00:22:49
    turns on here it'll actually light up in
  • 00:22:51
    the pool like a little NightLight cool
  • 00:22:54
    to see is it necessary no it's just cool
  • 00:22:56
    to see but it's still an extra feature
  • 00:22:59
    another feature about this skimy here
  • 00:23:01
    that works in conjunction with the
  • 00:23:03
    actual sensors here is the fact that it
  • 00:23:05
    works in Cloudy milky green murky water
  • 00:23:09
    as well and you can change the setting
  • 00:23:11
    on the app to tell it what kind of water
  • 00:23:13
    you have if you have clear water in the
  • 00:23:15
    pool just keep it on clear if you have a
  • 00:23:17
    little murky water if it's a little
  • 00:23:19
    dirty in there you can switch it and the
  • 00:23:20
    sensors will be able to basically see a
  • 00:23:23
    more clear image and be able to move
  • 00:23:25
    around the pool better so that's a nice
  • 00:23:27
    little feature in addition to being able
  • 00:23:29
    to solar recharge charge with the power
  • 00:23:31
    of sun it does it in a very smart way
  • 00:23:33
    they call it smart solar recharge where
  • 00:23:36
    depending on the time of the day as you
  • 00:23:38
    can see I have trees back here and when
  • 00:23:40
    the sun comes down it'll hit the tree
  • 00:23:43
    and I'll get shaded parts of the pool
  • 00:23:45
    this dolphin skimmy will automatically
  • 00:23:47
    detect when it's in the off position
  • 00:23:50
    it'll move to a more sunnier part of the
  • 00:23:53
    pool to accept the charge so if you have
  • 00:23:56
    a lot of trees shading certain parts of
  • 00:23:57
    your pool it'll move along the pool into
  • 00:24:00
    the most sunny part of your pool and
  • 00:24:02
    park itself there turns off and charges
  • 00:24:04
    over there as opposed to in the shade so
  • 00:24:06
    it's smarter that way awesome now
  • 00:24:08
    remember this skimy right here doesn't
  • 00:24:10
    have a navigation system it moves in a
  • 00:24:12
    random pattern there is no preset path
  • 00:24:15
    whenever this kind of gets stuck the
  • 00:24:17
    paddles here here in the front on the
  • 00:24:19
    side here whenever it gets stuck on
  • 00:24:21
    something it has something called wheel
  • 00:24:23
    unblock where if it senses that there is
  • 00:24:26
    a weird shaped debris somewhere stuck in
  • 00:24:28
    between the paddle say right over here
  • 00:24:30
    it'll make a loud noise it has alerts
  • 00:24:33
    that'll tell you that something is up
  • 00:24:35
    with it and it will automatically try to
  • 00:24:38
    knock it loose so that's really cool it
  • 00:24:39
    has an automatic kind of debris removal
  • 00:24:42
    system that clogs it up so if you hear
  • 00:24:45
    it kind of squeaking squealing in the
  • 00:24:47
    pool which I'll show you in a little bit
  • 00:24:49
    it's normal it's to get debris that's
  • 00:24:52
    stuck in one of its kind of paddles out
  • 00:24:54
    so that's really cool so I talked a lot
  • 00:24:56
    about this dolphin skimmy here and what
  • 00:24:58
    makes it so great let's go ahead and put
  • 00:25:01
    this into the pool back here and I'll
  • 00:25:03
    show you how well it works with corded
  • 00:25:05
    cleaners with a hose type of cleaner
  • 00:25:08
    I'll show you how well that works all
  • 00:25:10
    right guys let's go ahead and place the
  • 00:25:11
    dolphin skimy into the pool I'll pull
  • 00:25:13
    that basket out here remember those
  • 00:25:14
    clips right there will keep it from
  • 00:25:16
    turning on I'm going to take those off
  • 00:25:18
    right there both those clips put them in
  • 00:25:20
    my pocket right over here now I'll just
  • 00:25:22
    go ahead and push this in and it should
  • 00:25:23
    turn on automatically you hear that it
  • 00:25:26
    beeps if you take a look right down here
  • 00:25:28
    here you can see that the lights are on
  • 00:25:31
    it means it is ready to go so let's go
  • 00:25:33
    ahead and place this
  • 00:25:35
    inside and there it
  • 00:25:39
    goes now right off the bat I can tell
  • 00:25:42
    you you can see I have a pressure side
  • 00:25:44
    cleaner in the pool with a hose right
  • 00:25:47
    there and you can see it work alongside
  • 00:25:49
    that it won't get stuck on the hose
  • 00:25:54
    here one thing I do want to point out
  • 00:25:56
    about this is that it uses that paddle
  • 00:25:59
    system so you can hear it it does make a
  • 00:26:01
    noise in the pool it's not
  • 00:26:03
    overwhelmingly loud but it does make a
  • 00:26:05
    sound if you can hear it right here when
  • 00:26:07
    it gets closer to me
  • 00:26:11
    here you hear that it's not bad but
  • 00:26:14
    again there's two speeds to this you can
  • 00:26:16
    turn it down on slow mode if you don't
  • 00:26:18
    want a loud loud noise but this in
  • 00:26:21
    general isn't that loud at all
  • 00:26:30
    you can really see it moving along and
  • 00:26:31
    picking up all that debris on the
  • 00:26:33
    surface of the pool you can see the on
  • 00:26:35
    the top of it there all that debris
  • 00:26:37
    inside and look at it it's about to hit
  • 00:26:38
    my hose right here kind of hits my hose
  • 00:26:41
    right there but it gets out of it really
  • 00:26:45
    quickly sometimes it'll take a little
  • 00:26:47
    while longer to get out of it but in
  • 00:26:48
    this case it just kind of brushed it
  • 00:26:50
    aside but you'll be able to see it move
  • 00:26:51
    along the hose in the
  • 00:26:57
    pool in terms of speed it really does
  • 00:27:00
    move faster than other skimmers which I
  • 00:27:03
    love makes it feel like it's doing a
  • 00:27:05
    better job in a sense look at it just
  • 00:27:08
    capture all that debris right there
  • 00:27:17
    awesome now take a look at it right here
  • 00:27:21
    you can see it's against the wall right
  • 00:27:23
    over here if you can kind of zoom in
  • 00:27:25
    right there you can see that splashing
  • 00:27:27
    water at the edge right there and that's
  • 00:27:29
    to knock debris loose from the water
  • 00:27:31
    line to basically be pulled inwards and
  • 00:27:33
    that's what it does when it hits the
  • 00:27:35
    wall it's designed to actually hit the
  • 00:27:39
    wall and to clean the
  • 00:27:46
    waterline and there it goes again along
  • 00:27:49
    my hose right
  • 00:27:52
    there the pressure side cleaner you can
  • 00:27:55
    see it right there look at that it's
  • 00:27:57
    going over the hose did you see that it
  • 00:28:00
    went over the hose remember there are
  • 00:28:01
    top and bottom sensors to the skimy here
  • 00:28:04
    it's able to sometimes go over it
  • 00:28:07
    sometimes back around it but in this
  • 00:28:08
    case it went right over that hose with
  • 00:28:10
    no issues did not get stuck and now it's
  • 00:28:12
    on this side of the pool pretty
  • 00:28:18
    awesome now if you take a look right
  • 00:28:20
    here I have a pressure side cleaner look
  • 00:28:22
    at the hose it goes over the hose right
  • 00:28:24
    there and it's pretty much trapped in
  • 00:28:26
    the hose right here but take a look at
  • 00:28:28
    how it gets out of it here other
  • 00:28:30
    skimmers on the market will get stuck
  • 00:28:32
    but take a look at this here it should
  • 00:28:33
    be able to get out of this hose this
  • 00:28:35
    little entrapment over
  • 00:28:39
    here you can see at the same time I have
  • 00:28:41
    that pressure side cleaner moving in the
  • 00:28:43
    pool so both of these are on at the same
  • 00:28:45
    time look at it it's getting around it
  • 00:28:48
    really easily sometimes it'll go over
  • 00:28:50
    the hose sometimes it'll go around the
  • 00:28:52
    hose in this case it got out of the hose
  • 00:28:54
    itself
  • 00:29:01
    now I do want to point out remember
  • 00:29:03
    there is no preset pattern to this
  • 00:29:05
    skimmer here there are a lot of times
  • 00:29:07
    when it'll spin in a circle and in my
  • 00:29:09
    mind I think it's doing that on purpose
  • 00:29:12
    because if you have debris in a certain
  • 00:29:13
    section it kind of spins in a circle and
  • 00:29:15
    captures that debris but eventually
  • 00:29:17
    it'll start to move in another Direction
  • 00:29:19
    remember there is no pattern now you see
  • 00:29:22
    that it's starting to move in a
  • 00:29:23
    different direction here so that's
  • 00:29:25
    pretty neat you see that the Bree that
  • 00:29:26
    was in the surface in the center it kind
  • 00:29:27
    of captured
  • 00:29:32
    it and this part of my pull my tanning
  • 00:29:35
    ledge is more shallow it's about to hit
  • 00:29:38
    my Edge right here it hits the wall and
  • 00:29:40
    if you see right here you see that water
  • 00:29:43
    down there it's flying upwards this is
  • 00:29:45
    the water line over here so it's
  • 00:29:46
    knocking debris from the wall down into
  • 00:29:49
    it so it suctions that debris inwards
  • 00:29:52
    that waterline cleaning here that debris
  • 00:29:54
    splashing that it does that system
  • 00:29:56
    that's pretty cool
  • 00:30:06
    again take a look at the skimmy here
  • 00:30:08
    it's going over my hose right there it
  • 00:30:10
    kind of hits it but it goes over it
  • 00:30:12
    doesn't get stuck it's working in
  • 00:30:14
    conjunction with a hose
  • 00:30:16
    cleaner all right guys so take a look
  • 00:30:19
    right here I have set it to Perimeter
  • 00:30:21
    cleaning right here and take a look it
  • 00:30:22
    goes right to the water line right here
  • 00:30:24
    and this is how it cleans the water line
  • 00:30:26
    in Perimeter cleaning mode
  • 00:30:32
    now here's another look of that
  • 00:30:33
    perimeter cleaning at this angle here
  • 00:30:35
    it'll move all the way down this wall
  • 00:30:37
    right here totally awesome really cool
  • 00:30:39
    setting really cool mode to use just to
  • 00:30:41
    focus on the perimeter the edge of the
  • 00:30:44
    pool which in most cases all these other
  • 00:30:47
    skimmers struggle because they tend to
  • 00:30:49
    turn away from the pool so this really
  • 00:30:51
    does pick up the Brie on the edge of the
  • 00:30:53
    pool really well
  • 00:31:06
    now you can actually see the skimmy at
  • 00:31:08
    the edge of my pool right here on the
  • 00:31:11
    corner right
  • 00:31:12
    here let's watch it move over see what
  • 00:31:15
    it does here
  • 00:31:32
    you can really hear that water line
  • 00:31:34
    cleaning that water splashing right
  • 00:31:37
    there now it backs
  • 00:31:50
    up and you can kind of see it turning
  • 00:31:52
    right now
  • 00:32:01
    now did you hear that a very loud noise
  • 00:32:02
    and this is when it's in a tight corner
  • 00:32:04
    and it's kind of stuck did you see that
  • 00:32:06
    but it got itself out of that corner
  • 00:32:08
    which I'm more impressed with you can
  • 00:32:10
    see it turning now remember it was
  • 00:32:11
    moving along this Edge and now it's
  • 00:32:13
    moving along this edge of the pool right
  • 00:32:15
    here so that's how it moves when it
  • 00:32:16
    moves in
  • 00:32:23
    transition now did you guys hear that
  • 00:32:25
    that is the sound alert again and
  • 00:32:27
    basically that will set off when there
  • 00:32:29
    is some debris stuck in the wheels but
  • 00:32:31
    remember it has that Wheels unblock
  • 00:32:33
    feature and it'll automatically get rid
  • 00:32:35
    of the bre that's stuck in the paddles
  • 00:32:37
    this is pretty awesome all right guys so
  • 00:32:39
    I have the skimmy paused right now I
  • 00:32:41
    want to show you manual drive here to
  • 00:32:43
    remote control this here so I'm going to
  • 00:32:45
    go ahead and push it backwards and take
  • 00:32:47
    a look at that it goes really quick
  • 00:32:49
    there is no lag there is no delay here
  • 00:32:52
    so that's really nice there's very
  • 00:32:54
    little latency over here now let me go
  • 00:32:56
    ahead and show you I'll go
  • 00:32:58
    forwards here cruise control and it'll
  • 00:33:00
    just keep going forwards I'm going to
  • 00:33:02
    turn it to the left over
  • 00:33:04
    here let it go forward over
  • 00:33:07
    here I'm going to turn it to the right
  • 00:33:09
    over
  • 00:33:12
    here look at that it's just really cool
  • 00:33:15
    and easy to use now I'm going to push
  • 00:33:17
    backwards over here to have it go
  • 00:33:19
    backwards and then turn it to the right
  • 00:33:22
    remember it's like flight controls over
  • 00:33:25
    here go back forwards
  • 00:33:30
    just a really cool feature if you want
  • 00:33:31
    to spot Target certain areas of your
  • 00:33:34
    pool to clean so that's really nice so
  • 00:33:36
    here is another example of the sound
  • 00:33:38
    alerts here
  • 00:33:43
    listen all right guys so I muted it
  • 00:33:46
    there just so that you don't have to
  • 00:33:47
    listen to that wailing noise all right
  • 00:33:50
    guys so take a look right here on the
  • 00:33:51
    app it says removing stuck debris
  • 00:33:53
    remember I have it an auto here it made
  • 00:33:55
    that loud squeaking noise because it had
  • 00:33:57
    something stuck it got rid of it now
  • 00:33:59
    it's taking off again it has an
  • 00:34:00
    automatic removal system for debris so
  • 00:34:04
    that's really neat all right guys so I
  • 00:34:06
    have swapped cleaners out you can see
  • 00:34:08
    right here I have a corded cleaner in
  • 00:34:10
    the pool you can see all this cable
  • 00:34:12
    right here in the pool right here and
  • 00:34:14
    it's running right now over here you
  • 00:34:16
    have the dolphin skimmy moving around
  • 00:34:18
    and now we'll watch them interact with
  • 00:34:20
    each other here it won't get caught up
  • 00:34:23
    and it'll be able to use in conjunction
  • 00:34:24
    with each other that's what makes the
  • 00:34:26
    dolphin skimm so great makes it
  • 00:34:28
    different from the rest the ability to
  • 00:34:30
    use corded cable hose cleaners in the
  • 00:34:34
    pool at the same
  • 00:34:47
    time okay guys so take a look right over
  • 00:34:50
    here I have the dolphin skimy over here
  • 00:34:52
    you see that cable right there the
  • 00:34:54
    skimmy senses it and then get around it
  • 00:35:10
    okay guys so take a look right over here
  • 00:35:12
    I have the dolphin skimmy in the pool my
  • 00:35:14
    corded cleaner is going right into it
  • 00:35:17
    and look at how the skimy acts in
  • 00:35:19
    conjunction with the actual cord in the
  • 00:35:22
    pool it does not get tangled
  • 00:35:25
    up does not get caught up inside it will
  • 00:35:29
    actually adjust itself to get out of
  • 00:35:31
    this cord
  • 00:35:49
    here take a look at this right here you
  • 00:35:52
    see that going right over the corded
  • 00:35:55
    cleaner here doesn't get tangled at all
  • 00:35:57
    the dolphin skimmy is the only skimmer
  • 00:35:59
    on the market right now that can do this
  • 00:36:02
    that can work in conjunction with a
  • 00:36:04
    carted cleaner a hose cleaner
  • 00:36:10
    awesome all right guys since this is
  • 00:36:11
    here let me go ahead and show you this
  • 00:36:13
    right here I'm going to keep this in the
  • 00:36:14
    water right here and I want to point
  • 00:36:15
    something out if you take a look right
  • 00:36:17
    down here debris isn't coming forward
  • 00:36:19
    I'm going to try to tilt It Forward here
  • 00:36:21
    scoot debris out and debris doesn't come
  • 00:36:24
    out of that opening there and that's
  • 00:36:26
    because remember earlier on the top of
  • 00:36:28
    this flap here there is a latch here
  • 00:36:30
    that keeps debris from floating out and
  • 00:36:32
    it stays above the water so debris
  • 00:36:35
    inside does not come out and you hear
  • 00:36:38
    that when it makes a noise like that it
  • 00:36:39
    means something is stuck and that's
  • 00:36:41
    because I was messing with it that's why
  • 00:36:42
    it makes that
  • 00:36:48
    noise now if you take a look right over
  • 00:36:50
    here it hit the wall you can hear it
  • 00:36:53
    kick up and that's the water down here
  • 00:36:55
    at the bottom you see that water
  • 00:36:56
    floating up hitting the wall doing that
  • 00:36:58
    waterline cleaning right there it will
  • 00:37:00
    make more of a noise when it's splashing
  • 00:37:02
    water doing that waterline cleaning
  • 00:37:31
    all right guys so take a look right here
  • 00:37:33
    I have the dolphin skimm in the pool and
  • 00:37:34
    a corded cleaner with cords cables in
  • 00:37:37
    the pool here let see how it goes over
  • 00:37:39
    this cable if it gets stuck or anything
  • 00:37:41
    like that just take a look
  • 00:37:44
    here you can kind of see that it's
  • 00:37:47
    hitting it right now it doesn't get
  • 00:37:51
    stuck and look at that it's kind of
  • 00:37:53
    spinning all the way here to get out of
  • 00:37:55
    the way so that's pretty awesome
  • 00:38:01
    does not get stuck over the actual cord
  • 00:38:07
    here all right guys so let's go ah and
  • 00:38:08
    take this out of pool here again I don't
  • 00:38:10
    like this handle here I can feel my hand
  • 00:38:12
    wet right now reaching into the basket
  • 00:38:15
    here it's very lightweight that's a
  • 00:38:17
    benefit right over here let's go ahead
  • 00:38:18
    and place this down right here and let's
  • 00:38:20
    take a look at the debris basket over
  • 00:38:22
    here I'm going to pull this out just
  • 00:38:23
    like this and take a look at that debris
  • 00:38:26
    right here look at the difference sizes
  • 00:38:27
    of debris here small medium large size
  • 00:38:30
    debris in here you can see the smaller
  • 00:38:32
    debris in the back over here as well so
  • 00:38:34
    it picks up different sizes of debris
  • 00:38:36
    here big debris small debris all sorts
  • 00:38:39
    of sizes here awesome so you guys can
  • 00:38:42
    see that the dolphin skimy here works
  • 00:38:44
    amazingly well in the pool if you're in
  • 00:38:47
    the market for an automatic pool skimmer
  • 00:38:49
    if you have a corded cleaner if you have
  • 00:38:52
    a cleaner with a cable in the pool if
  • 00:38:54
    you have a hose cleaner a suction side
  • 00:38:57
    or precious side cleaner this is the
  • 00:38:59
    only one that I know of on the market
  • 00:39:01
    right now that you can use in
  • 00:39:03
    conjunction at the same time with these
  • 00:39:06
    cleaners here this is an awesome
  • 00:39:08
    automatic pool skimmer you will not have
  • 00:39:11
    a second charging option but if you use
  • 00:39:13
    this during the swim season works
  • 00:39:15
    perfectly fine works amazingly well
  • 00:39:18
    definitely a pool skimmer here I
  • 00:39:19
    recommend we hope this review helps
