Review on 12X24 Rectangle Solar Pool Cover With Grommets: Heat Retaining Blanket For In-Ground And Above-Ground Pools, Bubble-Side Down - Sun2Solar 1600 Series Bundle by Paul Dye

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Price Has Increased $100 in 2 Years

I go through one of these every 2 years. There's no way around it. We are "daily testers" of our water, and our pool is always perfectly balanced, so it's not "extreme chemical use" that's destroying these things. It's just cheap plastic--even the 16 mil version. The face of the "bubbles" wear off, leaving tiny circles of plastic floating in the pool and the filter. No matter what we do, this thing wears out every 2 years like clock work. Worse part of it all? The last time I bought this, it was $100 cheaper. Seriously? I think I'll go back to NOT using one at all and see what happens.

Pros
  • Can help to preserve the lifespan of your pool’s liner
Cons
  • The cover may require additional straps or clips to stay in place
