    Super fast shipping

    Super fast shipping. It arrived 3 days earlier then expected. Well packed. Item is as described.We normally use the blue color solar cover, but this year I wanted to see if the clear really did make a difference with the temperature of the water.First day we put it on and it was 85 degrees outside. Water temp was about 50F degrees. In the evening we checked the water temperature and it was much warmer and warmed up much quicker then the blue color solar covers.There is also a diamond shaped…

    Pros
    • Good quality, it fits and appears durable.
    Cons
    • The bubbles may pop over time and reduce the effectiveness of the cover

    Really helps with pool temperature

    This cover isn't so thick as the last one I had, so it's a little lighter. It seems to make a big difference in water temperature.I was able to be comfortable in my pool 2 weeks earlier than with a blue cover. I recommend. BUT. don't do this: I saw on Pinterest that you can cut your cover into 4 pieces so it's easier to handle, which is true. Even though this cover is lighter, it's still a bit hard to handle alone, so I cut it as with my old cover. If there are winds, the cover blows around in…

    Pros
    • Just cut it to size, and held up well all summer!
    Cons
    • The cover may not fit all round swimming pools properly

    Revainrating 5 out of 5

    Cover is much easier to handle when used with the saddle pool cover holder. It's worth it.

    Product worked very well. It was easy to get on and off by myself. I use it on a 24 ft above ground pool. After two sunny days, the pool was nice and comfortable. Grand kids loved it. Works very well with the saddle pool cover holder. It was also easy to install, and made removal and installation of the cover much easier. I am very pleased with this product.

    Pros
    • With a diameter of 18 feet, this solar cover is large enough to fit most round pools
    Cons
    • The cover may require a significant amount of time to install or remove

    Works well on my review.

    Turn my pool into a truly heated poolJust be careful if you leave it on your going to get algae a little quicker on scorching hot days

    Pros
    • The Sun2Solar Blue 18-Foot Round Solar Cover is a cost-effective solution for heating your swimming pool water
    Cons
    • The cover may require extra care to avoid damage from pets or wildlife

    It really worked for us!

    We were hopeful but also skeptical that it would help maintain the pool temperature BUT it did work! We leave the cover on all the time outside of cleaning and when we are using it. Between last year when we didn’t have a cover and this year the temperature difference was mind blowing. The water temp is now maintained at nearly 70 degrees (it doesn’t get hotter than 80 ish most days and the pool gets 5 hours direct sun) so we are actually using the pool much more than last year when the water…

    Pros
    • Above ground pool use
    Cons
    • The cover may be prone to getting tangled during installation or removal

    Best Decision Ever-Buy This Cover

    This solar cover is great! I did not have a solar cover for my above ground pool, and could not get the pool to get warm and stay warm for the life of me. Everyone told me to get a solar cover, so I found this one. Best decision ever. It has really helped heat the pool up, and it really does help keep it warm. We put the cover on and keep it on when we are not in the pool, yes, even when we are done at night. It traps the heat in the water to help keepIt warm. Best decision ever! Buy this! Yes…

    Pros
    • Easy to install, the bubble-side must face down into the pool to achieve optimal heating efficiency
    Cons
    • The cover may require more frequent replacement than other pool covers

    Wrong size ! for my opinion

    Wrong size ! Usually I order a 18’ round cover and it fits with extra to clip on top rail to stop is from spinning due to water current … this year I ordered 18’ and let’s say it barely reached the18’ diameter it spun so much I thought it would take off like a helicopter! Bad decision on my part perhaps!

    Pros
    • Patio, Lawn & Garden
    Cons
    • The cover can be bulky and difficult to maneuver

    3 dogs jumped on it 4 times without damaging it

    I was able to put this on my pool by myself quite easily. I was concerned about accidentally ripping it since I saw some reviews that stated theirs ripped. Mine has been fine. Within the first 24 hours, I had 2 different dogs jump in on top of it thinking they could walk on it. Both tried to paddle and get out before we were able to pull them out of the pool, but they were totally tangled up in the cover. A couple of days later, the puppy jumped in 2 times in a row. Each time, I was afraid that

    Pros
    • The bubble design of the cover increases buoyancy in your pool, creating a safer swimming environment
    Cons
    • The cover may not work properly if there are leaks or other issues with the pool itself

    Solar cover fits without cutting

    This is the first solar cover that I didn’t have to trim for the diameter. Still trimmed around ladder for fit. That's my review!

    Pros
    • The cover can be easily trimmed to fit the shape of your pool, ensuring a snug fit and maximum heat retention
    Cons
    • The cover may not meet certain safety requirements for public or commercial pools

    Revainrating 4 out of 5

    Did not last a year

    Bubbles started popping and prices floating in the water. Then started ripping at seams and where bubbles in had popped. Poor quality and should have lasted much longer.

    Pros
    • It’s perfect fit and warms my pool water so good..
    Cons
    • The cover may not be very effective at retaining heat in larger pools

    Good but doesn’t last!

    We have used this for maybe a total of 7 months. During the winter it was rolled up and stored in a temperature controlled area. Parts of the plastic bubbles started to be collected in our skimmer after 5 months of use. Now at 7 months, we have tried to pull the cover off of our pool and it starts to tear! We aren’t tugging, just a gentle pulling and my fingers went through it! The description says it is supposed to last for 7 years! That’s a lie, it barely lasted 7 months. So sad because it…

    Pros
    • Quick delivery, fits great, and seems to retain pool temperature.
    Cons
    • The cover can be difficult to clean and maintain

    DO NOT PURCHASE ! Defective products and horrible customer service.

    Ordered an 18ft cover. It came and was a great quality. However, after putting it on the pool it was obvious it was not 18ft as the cover hung over the sides. There are no holes to let air through so its nearly impossible to get it to lay flat on the water. After multiple attempts to resolve the issue they apsolutely refused to refund or exchange as "the cover can be cut to fit and there may be a few inches of overlap” after they made me measure the cover it was 5 1/2 inches larger at its…

    Pros
    • Excellent purchase, strong, durable, well worth the money
    Cons
    • The cover may develop mold or mildew if not dried properly

    Disappointed!: my feedback

    First the positive. The shipping was fast and the packaging from the outside was good. That is the end of the positive. Once I removed the outside packaging I was very very disappointed to see wrapped up on the inside of the blanket.TRASH! The inside of this blanket had so much trash rolled up inside of it it was unbelievable! Pieces of an old solar blanket, pieces of the outside plastic packaging, cardboard and paper pieces. I have never seen anything like this before! I spent an hour just…

    Pros
    • Would 100 percent recommend this product
    Cons
    • The cover may become less effective as it ages

    Not worth the price!

    First appearance this product appeared to be worth the price. But after a few weeks of using it the plastic is almost brittle to the point that it has cracked in some spots. It also appears to be too heavy as water along the sides gets in over the top to the point yesterday that it was half covered with water. Not good.

    Pros
    • Pretty good price for what it is but did not last as long as one that came with pool
    Cons
    • No drain holes in it so water stays on it

    Works great for my opinion

    We’ve had it for 3 weeks and it’s really protected our pool from leaves and heated up the pool a good amount!It’s thick and durable feeling.So far, would Buy again.

    Pros
    • The Sun2Solar Blue 18-Foot Round Solar Cover reduces your reliance on traditional pool heaters and saves you money on energy bills
    Cons
    • The cover may require more frequent cleaning or maintenance than other pool covers

    Helped regulate and warm the pool in a cooler climate

    Worked great - my daughter tracked the temperature with this pool blanket in place over 8 days as a science experiment. I'll try to upload the chart later on. This made a significant difference, about a 12F improvement in a Seattle area climate in about 8 days.

    Pros
    • Really heated my pool
    Cons
    • The cover may not be suitable for use with certain chemicals in the water

    Works great, heats our pool perfectly.

    We love this product, it’s easy to install, easy to remove and it’s durable. It does the job we were looking for. Thanks for attention!

    Pros
    • Was easy to install and use.
    Cons
    • The cover looks unattractive in the pool

    Revainrating 3 out of 5

    Got 3 years of use good for me

    We got 3 seasons of use out of it. I thought we would’ve gotten another year or two out of it. But it has weakened so much that it is just tearing and will be going in the trash at the end of the Pennsylvania pool season. Purchased in April of ‘19

    Pros
    • The cover is lightweight, making removal and replacement a breeze, saving you time and energy
    Cons
    • The cover may not be as effective at reducing water evaporation as advertised

    Ended up in the trash

    We bought this to help warm our pool because we filled it before the cold snaps completely ended and the water was cold. This thing didn’t do anything and my backyard is east facing getting mostly sun during the day. The only thing that help was once it got really hot and the sun itself (without the cover) warmed the pool. This thing is big bulky and hard to store. We ended it up throwing it away. Taking it on and off was hell because it picked up dirt and trash and had the dirt and trash in…

    Pros
    • No dislikes
    Cons
    • The cover may restrict water flow and reduce the effectiveness of pool equipment
