Buy Dolphin QuantumDolphin Nautilus CC Pro or Dolphin Nautilus EON 120d: our take
Dolphin Nautilus CC Pro and Dolphin Nautilus EON 120d 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
Dolphin Nautilus CC Pro is intended for inground pools, while Dolphin Nautilus EON 120d is intended for inground and above-ground pools. Both are rated for pools up to 50 ft. Each cleans floor, walls, and waterline, so coverage alone does not separate them. Dolphin Nautilus CC Pro lists CleverClean navigation. Dolphin Nautilus EON 120d lists 2 active brushes and SmartMap navigation.
Filtration and debris
Dolphin Nautilus CC Pro includes Basket; Dolphin Nautilus EON 120d includes Basket and UltraFilter. Dolphin Nautilus EON 120d has the clearer documented edge for fine silt, pollen and sand.
Controls and day-to-day ownership
Both models provide a weekly timer and smartphone control. Dolphin Nautilus CC Pro uses a 60 ft corded cable with an anti-tangle swivel, while Dolphin Nautilus EON 120d uses cordless battery power.
Price, warranty and the decision
Both are listed at $1,199. Dolphin Nautilus CC Pro lists a 2-year warranty compared with 1 years for Dolphin Nautilus EON 120d. Dolphin Nautilus CC Pro and Dolphin Nautilus EON 120d 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.
