Dolphin Nautilus CC Supreme

Three brushes, a 2.5-hour default cycle and both a fine and an ultra-fine filter kit in the box put the CC Supreme at the top of the Nautilus range. It is rated for in-ground pools to 50 feet and scrubs the waterline. The trade is weight: at 24.6 lb it is the heaviest Nautilus here.

A specification not listed here is one Dolphin does not publish for this model. It is left blank rather than estimated or borrowed from a sibling.

Features

  • Three brushes including a combined brush
  • 1.5 h and 2.5 h cycle options
  • Delay start and weekly timer
  • Waterline scrubbing
  • Two filter kits included

What it does well

  • Ships with both a fine and an ultra-fine filter kit, so the switch for a pollen week costs nothing extra
  • Three brushes where the rest of the Nautilus range has one or two
  • Delay-start and a choice of 1.5 or 2.5 hour cycles
  • Scrubs the waterline, a job the $749 CC Plus leaves to a hand brush

What it gives up

  • 24.6 lb out of the water, with no auto-surfacing listed
  • Still only a one-year warranty at $1,349
  • In-ground only, while the cheaper CC Pro is also rated for above-ground pools
  • Maytronics' micron claims for its ultra-fine kit disagree between pages, so no figure is shown here
  • No filter-full indicator, which the cheaper Explorer E50 has

The two lists above come from the maker’s own specifications and this site’s arithmetic on them, not from owner reports. Where owner discussion has been read it appears in its own section below, so the two are never mistaken for each other.

What owners say

The CC Supreme is where Nautilus shoppers end up when the features they want — waterline, more brushes, an app — push the budget toward $1,500, and owners who bought one mostly report that the cleaning justifies it.

The complaints are about the extras ageing: Wi-Fi and Bluetooth failing after a few years, and repairs accumulating on a robot that cost a lot. The scheduling question comes up too, because a weekly timer only makes sense if the robot stays in the pool.

It suits an owner who wants the fullest-featured Nautilus and plans to keep an eye on it. Fine filter cartridges are worth adding where dust is the problem.

What owners like

  • Owners on gunite and pebble finishes report it working perfectly, and the grey rubber tracks leave no marks.
  • The vacuuming holds up: an owner three years in says it still cleans well.
  • Owners in dusty regions pair it with fine filter cartridges and are satisfied with the result.

Common complaints

  • Connectivity is the weak point — one owner's Wi-Fi and Bluetooth died after a few years, leaving it button-start only.
  • Another owner's lasted four years but needed multiple repairs along the way, and they looked for something cheaper next time.
  • Owners are confused by an app that schedules daily cleaning when the usual advice is not to leave the robot in the pool between runs.

Questions owners ask about the Dolphin Nautilus CC Supreme

Is the CC Supreme safe on white plaster?

Owners on gunite and pebble finishes report no problems and point to its grey rubber tracks. Scuff concerns come up in reviews but not in these owners' experience.

Should I leave it in the pool to use the scheduler?

Owners find the app's scheduling at odds with advice to take the robot out after each run. Those who schedule leave it in; those following the usual advice start it by hand.

What tends to fail?

Owners report the Wi-Fi and Bluetooth dying after a few years, and repairs adding up over four years of use.
