I bought this in Spring, hoping we could warm up the pool for some visitors. We live in So Cal and the daytime temps were 75-80. Nights were 60-65. Pool temp was 65. In five days with the pool cover, water temps were 77 and everyone was swimming! It was easy to trim to size, even with our almond shaped pool. We cut it in half so it is easier to take off. At full length, it was a hassle to fold it up and pull it out, even with two people. Our pool fence and pool shape prevents us from buying a rolling device. Just be careful with algae. Both me and a friend ended up with algae after two weeks with the cover on. I think it’s probably due to the spike in temps without careful balance of chemicals. This is tricky because our pool guy recommended taking off the cover for two days after adding chlorine. But that reduces the benefits of heating. Good luck with that part!

I struggled before buying this reading the negative reviews and the super positive reviews. My original plan was to buy and install a pool heater which after the heater plus gas/electric relocation would have cost me 20k! So I figured what the heck try it and wow have I been impressed. I live in Arizona and put this on my small pool (8k gallons) and it was 72 degrees in early May. After 1 week it was 85, and with constant use meaning remove and reinstall it is now early June and the temp is now at 90! I have to say Looking back at the negative reviews… what did these people think they were buying? I would buy a new one of these every few years instead of spending 20 grand on a pool heater and gas line extension. My family is happy, I’m happy. All I have to do is put this on the pool and take it off and it’s all good. Trust me it’s worth the 200 bucks to just try it. I did and I’m amazed.

Do not buy!! This thing is paper thin. I've always used 12 mil covers, and this is no where near the thickness of my old cover. No where on the packaging does it even say it's 12 mil. I've had this thing on the pool in 100+ degree weather for the whole month of August. Took it off and the pool is icy cold. Our old cover had to be removed every couple days because the pool would get too hot. Supposed to have a 5 year guarantee, but I doubt it will even last a year. It comes from Leslie Pool, so it's just another of their over priced rip-offs. Run, run, run away from this product!!!!! UPDATE: Only 5 weeks after purchase a 6x6 inch area near the seam is already falling apart. I contacted Blue Wave, but they will only honor the guarantee if I give them another $58. $200+ bucks for a cover that only lasted 5 weeks. Total rip-off.

I am not sure if I ordered the wrong one, because it was so big. However, I was able to trim it perfectly for my size pool. The difference is amazing, instead of running my pool heater I was able to leave this on and the sun heated my pool even faster. When using the heat pump it will usually heat 1 degree per hour, but I put the blanket on and used the heater and it heated 5 degrees in 45 minutes. Now with the temps getting warmer. the blanket is really warming up the pool without the heater.

Product works as described, but warranty is misleading. Mine started to disintegrate after 1 season. It has a 5 year warranty so I emailed the seller. They wanted me to pay a "pro-rated" warranty fee nearly as much as purchasing a new one! None of that is disclosed on the current product page, which I think needs to be addressed.

Finally a duck deterrent that works! I live by a lake...a lake filled with wild ducks. Ducks like to swim in my pool.Cute right? NOT! The filthy little creatures like to crap everywhere and anywhere they are LIKE IN MY POOL! Grrrrr. I tried motion sensor sprinklers, audio pest load speakers, fake alligators, shiny globes, laser lights....even fire crackers! I even bribed the winged nastys with bowls of whole kernel corn down by the lake to keep them down there but the little creeps just kept coming back and using my pool for a toilet in the middle of the night while I was sleeping. After having to drain, pressure wash, paint and refill my pool for the third time I finally decided to try this, because it would also act as a solar blanket heating source. OMG IT WORKED! The ducks won't come near it and my pool shot up 15 degrees in a couple of days (granted I live in Florida but this was before the summer heat set in). I have since purchased a swimming pool cover reel that I use to roll this up every morning (takes 2 minutes) and unroll it at night (takes 2 minutes). I haven't had a single problem with the ducks since, (or the frogs/bugs/BIG turtles) the pool stays cleaner, chemicals last longer and it really really really heats up the pool if you leave it on during the day. Covering at night keeps the pools heat trapped in (along with the chemicals that would otherwise be evaporating faster) as well. I used to have solar heating panels on my roof for heating the pool and those actually never got the pool above 84. This thing took it to 94 in a few days! I actually only use it at night now (or if the wind picks up and starts blowing crap in my pool during the day) to keep the ducks out and the pool clean. This is hands down the best product I have ever seen for heating the pool and keeping the critters out (also had a frog and HUGE very big turtle problem too - oh the joy of living on a lake with an in-ground pool and no screen room). I highly recommend this if you have a pool pest problem, want to bump your heat up in the cooler months or just want to cut down on chemical evaporation. IT WORKS! Also, I'd recommend eventually getting a cover reel because it's so much nicer to roll it up and unroll it rather than just dragging it up on to the deck but that does work. I did that to begin with. :-) BTW, I still feed (bribe) the ducks so my wife (disabled) can watch them and they might walk up the hill to check things out, but they won't come near the pool now even when the cover is rolled up on the reel (sits at the shallow end of the pool unless we're in it - then I roll it out of the way - it has wheels).
