Buy Dolphin CaymanDolphin Liberty 200 or Dolphin T25: our take
Dolphin Liberty 200 and Dolphin T25 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 and above-ground pools. Dolphin T25 has a published maximum pool length of 33 ft; the other model does not have a verified length in our source material. Each cleans floor and walls, so coverage alone does not separate them. Dolphin Liberty 200 lists Dual DC motors. Dolphin T25 lists 1 active brush.
Filtration and debris
Dolphin Liberty 200 includes Basket; Dolphin T25 includes Basket and UltraFilter. Dolphin T25 has the clearer documented edge for fine silt, pollen and sand.
Controls and day-to-day ownership
Dolphin Liberty 200 provides no fully published timer, app or remote specification; Dolphin T25 provides a weekly timer and power-supply controls. Dolphin Liberty 200 uses cordless battery power, while Dolphin T25 uses a 50 ft corded cable.
Price, warranty and the decision
Dolphin Liberty 200 is listed at $999 and Dolphin T25 at $849; Dolphin T25 is $150 less. Each lists a 2-year manufacturer warranty. Dolphin Liberty 200 and Dolphin T25 each have a specific fit, but neither is the Pool Express pick for this job. Our better alternative is Dolphin Cayman. Inground and above-ground pools up to 40 ft that need floor and wall cleaning.
