Review on Sun2Solar Blue 12-Foot-By-24-Foot Oval Solar Cover 1200 Series Heat Retaining Blanket For In-Ground And Above-Ground Oval Swimming Pools Use Sun To Heat Pool Water Bubble-Side Facing Down by Dave Goodman

Lifetime supply of bubble-wrap

I bought this primarily to preserve water and keep leaves out of my pool. It did neither. Perhaps this works ok with a small pool, but with my 15x30, "kidney bean" shaped pool, it was rather useless. Even a light breeze bunched it to one side. Also, filtering equipment / skimmers could not operate with this covering the pool. Given the size, it is extremely difficult to manage and fold or roll - it took me 30 minutes to get it folded and rolled. Given it's bulk, I would consider it a hazard to leave near the pool. It is certainly not worth the aggravation.

Pros
  • Increases pool safety by providing a cover when not in use
Cons
  • Heating may not be consistent throughout the pool
