Compare Features, Filters, and Warranty
Liberty 200 or S200. Which wins?
Diving into the Liberty 200 vs S200, our pool experts distinguish the key features you'll want to look for when choosing a pool robot. That way, you can decide between the Dolphin S200 or Dolphin Liberty 200.
S200 is missing...
Lower Suction Power
The S200 uses the standard motors, rather than utilizing the more powerful, commercial-grade motors found on the ProLine™ which filter an extra 500 GPH+.
No Multi-Media
The S200 doesn't have Multi-Media™. Multi-Media™ allows a robot to swap between filter options in seconds. Multi-Media™ is exclusively found on the Dolphin Premier.

Missing Weekly Timer
Without a timer, the Dolphin Liberty 200 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 Waterline Cleaning
Without waterline cleaning, the Dolphin Liberty 200 won't clean the dirtest part of your pool. The Liberty 200 only has partial wall climbing.
Why Waterline Cleaning is Needed →
No NanoFilters™
Without these Gen 2 filters, the Liberty 200 cannot clean smaller particles, such as algae, sand, and other debris.
