What Sets Them Apart
Key Differences
Triton PS
- Discontinued Unit - As of 2023, this model is discontinued. Newer units with Gen 2 Filtration available in the ProLine and Max-Series

- Restocking Fee - Unlike Poolbot's 30 Day Trial, sellers of the Triton PS charge a 20% or more to return it
Nautilus CC Plus WiFi

Explained
Compare Features in Detail
Programmable Weekly Timer
An automatic pool cleaner should be automatic. A programmable weekly timer sets the robot to clean on a schedule — every day, every other day, or a few times a week — without you turning it on and off.
Anti-Tangle Cable Swivel
Say goodbye to tangled cords. An anti-tangle swivel lets the robot move 360° around your pool without the cord getting tangled, so you can sit back while it cleans. Learn more ›
Warranty Coverage
A robot is only as good as its warranty. The Dolphin Triton PS is backed by a 2-year warranty, while the Dolphin Nautilus CC Plus WiFi carries a 1-year warranty. Buying through an Authorized Dealer like Poolbots gets you the full manufacturer warranty — never pro-rated or limited by cleaning cycles — plus a 30-day in-pool trial with no restocking fees.
