  • Never again.
Size: 16-FT x 25-FT Style: Cover
I've purchased this cover four times. I considered it disposable and never really expected more than a year's use. That has worked well until this year. Opened the pool and it was filthy. Not debris like leaves, but a kind of silt. I could see on the cover where the seam had stretched and there was an accumulation of dirt on that seam, so that is where the dirt entered the pool. My pool is so gross right now it is so discouraging. I've been running the filter 24/7 for three days now and it is not improving even though I am cleaning the filter daily and using a sock in the skimmer in hopes of catching more of the fine silt. I guess going "cheap" is no longer an option. Especially when the "cheap" price is now twice what it was when I purchased my first cover four years ago. My pool looks like mud. ... show more

  • Fits Perfectly
Size: 12-FT x 24-FT Style: Cover
Just what I needed for my large oval, above ground pool. Like many covers, it already started to degrade after one winter, so I’ll be lucky to get 2 seasons out of it. Then I usually buy another. No big deal.

  • 8yrs->not even 8 days
Size: 12-FT x 20-FT Style: Cover
This product seemed less than promising. Hoping to at least get a year as some reviewers noted, I didn’t even get 8 days. We placed the cover over the pool, 2 days later we had some strong wind. I saw the cover almost fly away. After making the the cover was good, I put it back on and tighten it a bit more. Less than a week, maybe day 3 or 4, I discovered holes on the cover form at every point that touches the above ground pool supports/poles. It did stop most of the dirt/sand from going into the pool, but the holes and seems useless. Save your money this cover is extremely poor quality. The grommets are spread way too far apart causing gaps that allow up to a small child to fit through, the materials is too thin and can’t stand winds, and it already started getting sun worn… ... show more

  • Decent cover
Size: 16-FT x 32-FT Style: Cover
This is a pool cover for an above ground pool - not much to say. It’s generously sized, which makes installation easy. It’s not an eye sore. And it’s cheap. However you will likely only get one winter out of the cover. But honestly I’ve paid twice as much for supreme covers, and they didn’t last either. Is it the harsh Bew England winters? I don’t know. But if I can expect only one winter for a pool cover, this does the trick. It’s cheap and easy to install. ... show more

  • Only good for 1 season
Size: 15-FT x 30-FT Style: Cover
I have been buying this pool cover for the last 5 years mainly because it was cheap and easy to put on. I only ever get 1 season from it, which in Florida is about 5 months over winter and pollen season. The warranty is so bad that it is not even worth paying to ship it back. 50% after 1 year. I always viewed it as a cheap throwaway, but since the price of it has been going up, I will look for an alternative. This cover disintegrates after 4 to five months of use in Florida. It may last longer in other states, but you should not expect much more than that. ... show more

  • Not worth it
Size: 18-FT x 34-FT Style: Cover
Our first cover lasted 2 years. This is the 2nd one I’ve purchased and we haven’t even made it thru the off season and it’s ripped in multiple places. Going to have to open the pool early to avoid a green pool with debris that will be impossible to clean.
