Dolphin EON 100 or Niya Tracker 25: our take

Dolphin EON 100 and Niya Tracker 25 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

Controls and day-to-day ownership

Dolphin EON 100 is listed at 22.1 lb versus 10 lb for Niya Tracker 25; that 12.100000000000001 lb difference matters when lifting the robot from the pool.

Price, warranty and the decision

Dolphin EON 100 lists a 2-year warranty compared with 1.5 years for Niya Tracker 25. Dolphin EON 100 and Niya Tracker 25 each have a specific fit, but neither is the Pool Express pick for this job.
