The all-new Aquabot Rapids 2000 cleans your pool floor, walls, and waterline. With an included caddy and remote control, cleaning has never been easier.
The Aquabot Rapids 2500 robotic pool cleaner paves the way with waterline cleaning, remote control, and caddy. Clean like never before.
Designed for use in fountains, wading pools, and reflection pools, with the capability to function in water as shallow as 8 inches
Floor + walls + waterline. NanoFiltration™. Weekly timers. Swivel cables. Full-featured pool cleaning.
The under-$2,000 range is where you get a complete pool robot — one that handles every surface of your pool, filters down to 2 microns, runs on a weekly schedule, and requires minimal maintenance. There are no major compromises here. If you want a robot that just works, this is the range to shop.
At this price, your robot cleans every surface — the pool floor, walls, coves, and the critical waterline. Why does the waterline matter? Because up to 90% of pool bacteria thrives at the water's surface, where oils, sunscreen, minerals, and organic debris collect. A robot that skips the waterline leaves the dirtiest part of your pool untouched.
NanoFiltration™ filters down to 2 microns — small enough to capture bacteria, fine algae spores, pollen, and particles invisible to the naked eye. Standard pool robot filters capture down to roughly 50 microns. That's a 25x difference in filtration quality.
The result? Visibly cleaner water, less chemical usage, and a pool that looks and feels better. NanoFilters™ turn your pool robot into a secondary filtration system that works alongside your main pump and filter.

Not everyone wants to manage their pool robot through a smartphone app. Robots in this range offer simple, built-in timer controls — set your cleaning schedule directly on the power supply and walk away. No Wi-Fi setup, no app downloads, no connectivity issues. Just reliable, automated cleaning every week.
Combined with the XXL MaxBin™ top-loading filter, the entire user experience is designed around simplicity: set the timer, empty the bin when full, and enjoy a clean pool.
The Dolphin Quantum handles pools up to 50 feet in length — covering the vast majority of residential inground pools. SmartNav™ scanning technology maps your pool's shape and ensures complete coverage every cycle, including irregular shapes, steps, and benches.
For pools larger than 50 feet or with complex shapes, the $3,000 range offers gyroscope-enhanced navigation and even longer cable reach.

Robots in the $2,000–$3,000 range are designed for the most demanding pools and owners. Here's what they add:
Floor, wall, and waterline cleaning. NanoFiltration™. XXL MaxBin™. Weekly timer. Coverage up to 50 feet. The Dolphin Quantum delivers the most complete cleaning experience under $2,000 — and it does it without needing an app or complex setup.
Shop Dolphin QuantumIf your pool demands maximum suction — heavy leaves, large surface area, or just the peace of mind of commercial-grade motors — the Dolphin Premier in the $2,000–$3,000 range is the upgrade path. Named Best Pool Robot by USA Today, the Premier adds Multi-Media™ filtration, an oversized leaf bag, and a 3-year warranty.

We call the under-$2,000 range the "no-regrets" range because you're not compromising on anything that matters:
If you're not sure what to buy, this is the range. You won't look back wishing you spent more.
The Dolphin Quantum is our top recommendation under $2,000. It cleans floors, walls, and the waterline with NanoFiltration™, features an XXL MaxBin™, and covers pools up to 50 feet — all with a simple weekly timer.
NanoFiltration™ captures particles as small as 2 microns — 25 times finer than standard filters. This includes bacteria, fine algae, pollen, and microscopic debris that would otherwise pass right through. The result is noticeably cleaner water and reduced chemical consumption.
Not at all. Robots under $2,000 like the Dolphin Quantum use a simple built-in timer on the power supply. Set your schedule and walk away. App control (available in the $2,500+ range with the Dolphin Sigma) adds remote control and diagnostics, but it's a convenience — not a necessity.
The Dolphin Quantum covers pools up to 50 feet, which includes the vast majority of residential inground pools. For pools larger than 50 feet, look at the under $3,000 range for extended cable reach and enhanced navigation.
For most pool owners, yes. You get full coverage (floor, walls, waterline), NanoFiltration™, weekly automation, and excellent build quality. The $3,000 range adds premium features like app control and commercial motors, but the under-$2,000 range delivers the best balance of performance and value.
