Why it matters

Dolphin Quantum Pro vs Dolphin E10: how they compare

The Dolphin Quantum Pro is part of the Max-Series™ / ProLine™ lineup — app-connected floor-to-waterline cleaning with an XXL MaxBin™ and NanoFilters™. It cleans pools up to 50 ft with floor + walls + waterline coverage and XXL MaxBin™ + NanoFilters™ filtration, backed by a 2-year warranty.

The Dolphin E10 is part of the Explorer™ lineup — the base model of the Explorer™ line — simple plug-and-play floor cleaning for above-ground pools. It handles pools up to 33 ft with floor only coverage and Top-load cartridge filtration, backed by a 2-year warranty.

Our verdict: the Dolphin Quantum Pro wins

The Dolphin Quantum Pro is our pick. As part of the Max-Series™ / ProLine™ — one of our two top-recommended lineups — it steps ahead of the Dolphin E10 with floor + walls + waterline coverage, XXL MaxBin™ + NanoFilters™ filtration and a 2-year warranty.

The Dolphin E10 is the cheaper option at $499, but the step up to the Dolphin Quantum Pro buys a meaningfully better clean and longer coverage that's well worth it.
