Buying guidance

Dolphin Premium 10 or Niya Tracker 25: our take

Dolphin Premium 10 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

Dolphin Premium 10 is intended for inground and above-ground pools, while Niya Tracker 25 is intended for above-ground pools. Dolphin Premium 10 is rated for pools up to 30 ft; Niya Tracker 25 is rated up to 26 ft. Each cleans floor, so coverage alone does not separate them. Dolphin Premium 10 lists 1 active brush and CleverClean navigation. Niya Tracker 25 lists Sonar navigation and Brushless motors.

Filtration and debris

Both models include Basket.

Controls and day-to-day ownership

Both models provide one-touch starts and power-supply controls. Dolphin Premium 10 uses continuous corded power, while Niya Tracker 25 uses cordless battery power. Dolphin Premium 10 is listed at 14.6 lb versus 10 lb for Niya Tracker 25; that 4.6 lb difference matters when lifting the robot from the pool.

Price, warranty and the decision

Dolphin Premium 10 is listed at $719 and Niya Tracker 25 at $379; Niya Tracker 25 is $340 less. Dolphin Premium 10 lists a 2-year warranty compared with 1.5 years for Niya Tracker 25. Dolphin Premium 10 and Niya Tracker 25 each have a specific fit, but neither is the Pool Express pick for this job. Our better alternative is Dolphin Escape. Inground and above-ground pools up to 30 ft that need floor cleaning.
