Without the more powerful, commercial-grade motors found on the ProLine™, the Nautilus CC Pro has less suction power than other robots.
Restocking Fee

Missing Weekly Timer
Without a timer, the Dolphin Active 10 won't automatically run every day. This is an essential feature you'll need, unless you want to manually turn on the robot everyday.
No Wall Coverage
Without wall climbing or waterline cleaning, the Dolphin Active 10 won't clean any part of your pool's walls and only clean the floors - Missing the dirtest part of your pool, the waterline.
