Buy Dolphin QuantumAquabot REVA or Dolphin Explorer E70: our take
Aquabot REVA and Dolphin Explorer E70 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 Explorer E70 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 REVA lists Gyroscope navigation. Dolphin Explorer E70 lists CleverClean navigation.
Filtration and debris
Dolphin Explorer E70 has documented included filtration—Basket and UltraFilter—while the other model's included media is not fully published. Dolphin Explorer E70 has the clearer documented edge for fine silt, pollen and sand. Dolphin Explorer E70 has the better documented path for bulky leaves and larger debris.
Controls and day-to-day ownership
Aquabot REVA provides smartphone control; Dolphin Explorer E70 provides a weekly timer, smartphone control, and included remote control.
Price, warranty and the decision
Aquabot REVA is listed at $499 and Dolphin Explorer E70 at $2,099; Aquabot REVA is $1,600 less. Aquabot REVA lists a 2-year warranty compared with 3 years for Dolphin Explorer E70. Aquabot REVA and Dolphin Explorer E70 each have a specific fit, but neither is the Pool Express pick for this job. Our better alternative is Dolphin Quantum. Inground pools up to 50 ft that need floor, wall and waterline cleaning, with fine debris.
