Explorer E10 vs Explorer E25: Choosing the Right Explorer for Your Pool

If you’re looking to make pool maintenance effortless, a Maytronics Dolphin robotic cleaner is a smart investment. At EZ Pool & Spa Supply, we’re proud to offer both the Explorer E10 and the Explorer E25—two of the most popular entry-level robotic pool cleaners on the market. But which one is the best fit for your pool? Let’s break down the differences so you can make a confident, informed decision.

Side-by-Side Comparison

Key Differences Explained

1. Pool Compatibility & Cleaning Coverage

• Explorer E10: Perfect for above-ground pools up to 30 feet. It focuses on cleaning the pool floor only, making it a simple, reliable choice for flat-bottomed pools.

• Explorer E25: Designed for both above-ground and small in-ground pools up to 33 feet. It cleans both floors and walls, giving you more comprehensive coverage—especially useful if your pool collects debris on the walls.

2. Cleaning Performance

• Cycle Time: E10 completes a cleaning cycle in just 1.5 hours, while the E25 takes 2 hours for a more thorough clean.

• Filtration: Both models use top-access filters for easy maintenance, but the E25 features a cartridge system with a higher suction rate (4,500 GPH vs. 4,000 GPH), making it more effective at picking up fine debris.

• Active Brushing: The E10 has an active brush for scrubbing, which is great for tackling stubborn dirt on the pool floor. The E25 does not have an active brush but compensates with higher suction and wall-cleaning ability.

3. Warranty & Long-Term Value

• Explorer E10: Comes with a 2-year warranty, and you can extend your coverage by 1, 2, or 3 years with Extend Product Protection—an excellent way to protect your investment.

• Explorer E25: Offers a longer 2.5-year warranty, also extendable for even more peace of mind.

Accessories to Maximize Convenience

Neither model includes a caddy, but a caddy is a must-have for easy storage, transport, and organization:

• Maytronics Dolphin Universal Pro Caddy: Move and store your robot with ease.

• Caddy Covers: Protect your cleaner and accessories from sun, rain, and dust.

  • Classic Caddy Cover

  • Premium Caddy Cover
