Key Features Comparison

Features

Waterline / Tileline Cleaning

Clean where other robots can't

90% of the bacteria in your pool is on the waterline. Don't get confused with robots that are "Wall Climbing". There is a big difference. Waterline cleaning means the robot actively scrubs and sticks to the waterline scrubbing away this problem area in the pool. It is a feature you don't want to miss.

Triton PSYes
Wave 200 XLNo

Dolphin Sigma Wall Climbing

Wall Climbing

Provides floor and wall coverage

Wall climbing allows the robot to clean and climb the walls of your pool. However, don't get this confused with waterline cleaning. A robot without waterline cleaning will only clean the walls of your pool. It will miss the dirtiest part of your pool, the waterline, where 90% of all algae and bacteria is in your pool.

Triton PSYes
Wave 200 XLNo

Anti-Tangle Swivel Cable

Anti-Tangle Swivel

No more tangled cords

With an Anti-tangle Swivel, the robot can fully explore and clean your pool without ever getting stuck. The innovative design allows the robot to move freely 360 degrees around your pool, without ever knotting the cord.

Triton PSNo
Wave 200 XLYes

Energy Efficient Pool Robot

Ultra Efficient

Save Hundreds of Dollars Cleaning Your Pool a Year

A robotic pool cleaner saves hundreds of dollars a year in energy when compared to pressure-side or suction-side cleaners. Powered by energy efficient DC motors, a robotic pool cleaner can be 90% more efficient than its counterparts.

Triton PSYes
Wave 200 XLYes

Plug and Play Power Supply

Plug and Play

Simply plug in and start cleaning

Set up has never been easier. No installation needed. Your robot is ready to go right out of the box. No extra pumps, plumbing, or anything else needed. Simply plug it in and start cleaning!

Triton PSYes
Wave 200 XLYes

Smart Navigation System

Precise Navigation

Navigate Any Obstacle

This technology ensures that the most efficient route is used to clean your pool floor. So smart, the system automatically navigates around obstacles and quickly returns to its route. You'll want to look for SmartNav, as we found it performed best in our testing.
