Choosing the Right Dolphin Skimmi™: 200 vs 300

Keeping your pool surface free from leaves, insects, and debris is just as important as cleaning the floor and walls. While a pool cleaner handles what sinks, a dedicated pool skimmer is the most efficient way to manage floating debris.

That’s where the Dolphin Skimmi™ range comes in. Designed by Maytronics, these smart surface-cleaning robots take the hassle out of daily skimming. But which model is right for your pool - the Dolphin Skimmi™ 200 or the Dolphin Skimmi™ 300?

Let’s break it down.

Why Use a Robot Pool Skimmer?

Traditional skimming with a net is time-consuming and easy to forget. A robot pool skimmer works independently from your filtration system, constantly collecting surface debris before it sinks and turns into a bigger cleaning problem.

Pairing a pool skimmer with a robotic pool vacuum creates a complete cleaning solution -surface, walls and floor covered with minimal effort.
