New pool owner here, may have bit off more than I can chew but I am doing research on automatic/robotic pool cleaners, we have a lot of trees (for now)

Reviews on Amazon are all over the place.

I don't want anything that could leave streaks, which seems to be a problem with some of the robots.

TIA

I bought the dohenys branded robotic cleaner, called Discovery. It is literally a rebranded Dolphin ....still has the sticker on it saying Dolphin. Made by Maytronics. It replaced my dying Polaris after the booster pump died for it.

So far I've been pleased with it, wish I would've sprung for the carrying cart but Otherwise no issues. If I feel like it didn't get it clean enough, I just run it again.

We use a Polaris that I've been very pleased with. If this isn't the exact model, it's pretty close:

Check out the trouble free pool site linked in the first reply. That's a good resource to keep in your back pocket. I think you'll find that maintaining a pool is much easier than people make it seem.
