Genuine Dolphin Max-Series™ Above-Ground Power Under $630
Maytronics-Software Certified
Bench-tested across motors, HyperBrush™, tracks, seals, and power supply to 100% factory spec.
Full 2-Year Warranty
Protected for two full seasons from delivery day—making cheap 90-day refurbs obsolete.
Three Cosmetic Grades
Choose Excellent, Good, or Fair exterior shell finish; every tier cleans identically.
Top-Load MaxBin™
Oversized top-access cartridge rinses clean with a garden hose in seconds.
HyperBrush™ Floor Scrubbing
Actively scrubs settled dirt and green algae off vinyl floors in 90 minutes.
14-Lb Effortless Lift
Easy to drop in and lift out over tall above-ground rails.
Purpose-Built for Above-Ground Pools
Weighing just 14 lbs dry with a fast 1.5-hour cleaning cycle and a 40-foot tangle-resistant cord, the Dolphin Escape is engineered specifically for vinyl, resin, and steel-wall above-ground pools up to 33 feet—scrubbing the entire floor clean without straining delicate liners or requiring any hoses or booster pumps.
Oversized Top-Load MaxBin™ Basket
Forget messy clip-on cloth bags. Pop the top latch, lift out the Escape's oversized MaxBin™ debris basket, and hose it clean in under a minute—holding up to 60% more leaves, bugs, sand, and acorns than entry-level trays.
HyperBrush™ 2× Speed Active Scrubbing
Rotating at twice the travel speed of the robot, the front HyperBrush™ lifts settled dirt, slippery algae, and fine dust off vinyl floors so the vacuum intake captures what passive suction cleaners leave behind.
HyperGrip™ Continuous Rubber Tracks
Instead of plastic wheels that spin out on slick wet vinyl, continuous HyperGrip™ tracks hold steady traction across floor seams, coves, and slight dished bottoms.
SmartNav 2.0™ Floor Mapping
Onboard SmartNav 2.0™ scanning learns round, oval, and rectangular above-ground layouts so the Escape covers the whole floor systematically instead of crisscrossing the same spot.
Pennies Per Cycle & 2-Year Maytronics Warranty
Low-voltage 24V DC power draws roughly 180 watts—about 5 cents per cycle—while saving wear and tear on your main pool filter. Every Escape includes a full 2-year Maytronics warranty.
Independent Hands-On Reviews
Three Honest Grades—One Strict Performance Standard

- Excellent: Near-new exterior appearance with minimal handling marks.
- Good: Light scuffs on housing bumpers; 100% factory suction and scrubbing.
- Fair: Noticeable cosmetic shell wear for the lowest $589 price—same tested motors and 2-year warranty.
