Review: The best pool cover I’ve used! - This is the best pool cover I have used it lets the water drain back into the pool so there’s no water pooling on top which stops frogs from breeding and making all the noises around the house on the average the pool cover last about 2 to three years. Pro tip to keep these covers lasting long is to get those inflatable pool pillows are probably a whole bunch of them for a 24 inch above round pool. I got like 12 of them and I filled them up and I put the cover on top of it it’s like a doomr structure and then around the edges of the pool. I tightened the cover and then I put clips all around the pool cover all those of those green camping clips that you get from desertcart, they’re not really cheap. They’re like $21 for like a dozen of them or so, but they have really helped me keep water from pooling which was causing a lot of issues with the frogs as they were you know breeding and making all those noises. As I mentioned earlier, my installation process is simple. I fill up the inflatable pillows. I put the pool cover on top of it and then use the cable rent system that they provide to tighten everything and then use those clips that you get from desertcart for camping tents to keep the keep everything nice and taught. Essentially I have a dome over the pool that doesn’t let water collect on top at all it. This system lasts me for about 2 to 3 years when the inflatable pillows start deflating and at that point I have to take the cover off and reinflate the pillows and put everything back. I hope this company continues to create this pool cover as has been a lifesaver for me to be able to get some sleep at night.
Review: It works - Pros: 1) Easy to install, even with 1 person if absolutely necessary. 2) It does keep leaves and tiny debris from going through. Cons: 3) It holds water; doesn't drain through unless it is NOT touching the water, which is impossible unless you blow up so many pillows to put underneath that it covers the entire surface first. You have to siphon the water off the top before you can remove it. It takes at least 2 people to remove it, because of this, and it takes a very long time. Water does not seep through easily. It is extremely heavy even after siphoning what can be siphoned. 2) Algae grows on it therefore cleaning it is virtually impossible. It turns white and crusty. After hours of scrubbing it, it still isn't clean. (see attached pictures) 3) Cover is brittle, and we have used it only 1 season. It also already has holes in it. (see attached pictures) 4) The seam at the outer part is already starting to come apart. You touch one of the hanging pieces and the weave starts to unravel (see attached pictures) 5) It blows off easily even after tightening the cord as tight as it will go, and believe me, my husband is a strong man, so we had to use clamps to hold it down. I read another review and it is true that the warranty is ridiculous. Packaging it and sending it back for a partial refund is not a problem, but paying the shipping for it, that's poor customer service, since it states there is an 8-year warranty. Basically, you use it for 1 season, loses half its value, so risk using it a second season, and it is worthless. For the price of it, it'd be worth it just paying for a cheaper one, using clamps to hold it down, and then buying another cheap one year after year. It's more economical.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: I have a 24 foot pool, should i order the 24 or go with 28?**
A: 24 foot is fine.  But do not expect much from this cover.  Mine did not make it through even  one season!

**Q: I have a 16ft round pool, Would the cable of the 15ft fit around it or should I go with the 18ft? Thank you in advance.**
A: If I were you I would get the 18 it's better to be safe because if it's too tight it will rip...we have the 24 ft and it fits just right...hope that helps:)

**Q: I have a deck around my pool.  does the 4 foot overlap actually hang down the sides of the pool by 4 foot all the way around?**
A: Not exactly. The excess hangs over the pool wall, then there is a wire that goes through eyelets along the outer edge of the cover that you pull tight. As far as how much hangs down, mine only had about 2 feet hanging, since some of the excess is taken up by the droop down the inside of the pool (you can't actually pull it tight enough for the cover to be "flat" across the pool surface, it droops down to the water inside).

**Q: Would this be good to use during pool season like leaving it on when not in pool and taking it off when getting in..i ask because my pool is under tre**
A: It works great catching leaves. Our pool stayed clear all fall/winter, and ours is under a tree also. It tolerated the wind also and did not Frey. Because of the way it tightens, it's would not be fun to do everyday. We had to remove our steps to tighten it properly. But the quality is great.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good cover.
*by E***A on March 4, 2025*

This is my second one. It's pretty durable. The only problem was that the winch corroded kinda fast. Emailed customer service and they took care of it. Other than that, I like it. Would buy again.
