Buy Clear SAquabot Elite Pro or Dolphin Advantage Pro: our take
Aquabot Elite Pro and Dolphin Advantage Pro are compared on pool fit, cleaning reach, debris handling, controls and ownership details. The recommendation is based on the job the robot must do—not a simple feature count.
Pool fit and cleaning reach
Both robots are intended for inground pools. Dolphin Advantage Pro has a published maximum pool length of 50 ft; the other model does not have a verified length in our source material. Each cleans floor, walls, and waterline, so coverage alone does not separate them. Aquabot Elite Pro's documented cleaning system includes AquaSmart navigation.
Filtration and debris
Aquabot Elite Pro includes Standard filter; Dolphin Advantage Pro includes Basket. Dolphin Advantage Pro has the better documented path for bulky leaves and larger debris.
Controls and day-to-day ownership
Aquabot Elite Pro provides smartphone control; Dolphin Advantage Pro provides a weekly timer and smartphone control.
Price, warranty and the decision
Aquabot Elite Pro is listed at $999 and Dolphin Advantage Pro at $1,399; Aquabot Elite Pro is $400 less. Aquabot Elite Pro lists a 3-year warranty compared with 2 years for Dolphin Advantage Pro. Aquabot Elite Pro and Dolphin Advantage Pro each have a specific fit, but neither is the Pool Express pick for this job. Our better alternative is Clear S. Inground pools up to 50 ft that need floor, wall and waterline cleaning, with fine debris.
