Triton PS Plus is missing...
No NanoFilters™
Without these Gen 2 filters, the Triton PS Plus cannot clean smaller particles, such as algae, sand, and other debris.
Why NanoFilters are essential →Lower Suction Power
Without the more powerful, commercial-grade motors found on the ProLine™, the Triton PS Plus has less suction power than other robots.
Restocking Fee
Sellers of the Triton PS Plus charge up to a 20% Restocking Fee. You'll want to avoid these units and look for a robot with a 30 Day Free Trial
Dolphin Robots with 30-Day Risk-Free Trials →Explorer E30 WiFi is missing...
Lower Suction Power
The Explorer E30 WiFi 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 Explorer E30 WiFi 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.
Shop Premier →Shorter Warranty
The Explorer E30 WiFi also has a shorter 2 year warranty compared to a 3 year warranty.
