Dolphin Nautilus Titan or Dolphin Premium 10: our take

Dolphin Nautilus Titan and Dolphin Premium 10 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 Titan is intended for inground pools, while Dolphin Premium 10 is intended for inground and above-ground pools. Dolphin Nautilus Titan is rated for pools up to 50 ft; Dolphin Premium 10 is rated up to 30 ft. Dolphin Nautilus Titan cleans floor, walls, and waterline; Dolphin Premium 10 cleans floor. Dolphin Nautilus Titan lists 2 active brushes and CleverClean navigation. Dolphin Premium 10 lists 1 active brush and CleverClean navigation.

Filtration and debris

Dolphin Nautilus Titan includes Basket and UltraFilter; Dolphin Premium 10 includes Basket. That gives Dolphin Nautilus Titan the clearer documented edge for fine silt, pollen and sand.

Controls and day-to-day ownership

Dolphin Nautilus Titan provides a weekly timer and smartphone control; Dolphin Premium 10 provides one-touch starts and power-supply controls. Both use continuous corded power. Dolphin Nautilus Titan is listed at 22.6 lb versus 14.6 lb for Dolphin Premium 10; that 8.000000000000002 lb difference matters when lifting the robot from the pool.

Price, warranty and the decision

Dolphin Nautilus Titan is listed at $1,599 and Dolphin Premium 10 at $719; Dolphin Premium 10 is $880 less. Dolphin Nautilus Titan lists a 1-year warranty compared with 2 years for Dolphin Premium 10. Dolphin Nautilus Titan and Dolphin Premium 10 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.
