First year trying this brand. Worked well enough, but after 7 months in the sun, the cover is starting to disintegrate. Will have to get a new one this spring.

Although we have been ordering 8 mil covers for many years because they are lighter and easier to handle this one seems thinner than the others. We don’t need a heavier one as we have solar for the pool on the roof. This one already has a hole!

For as cheaply made as this pool cover is, it works really well - we are done spending 5 - $600 a year for the expensive covers that don't last in the desert summers more than 1 - 2 years ... this pool cover has made the pool much warmer and it's super light and easy to deal with - it has already ripped but that's to be expected with something so thin - we will be buying this cover again

This is my 2nd Pool Solar cover. It lasted 5 years and started to fall apart. So I bought another one. Between the sun and the chlorine of the pool, it takes a beating. I also have the roll up device for this cover. You simply take the solar cover and place on top of your pool (bubbles down) and cut it to the shape of your pool so it lies directly on the water. I have the one end attached to my roll up device and it's so each to roll it up and pull it back out. I usually put it away with tarps and bungee cords for the winter to keep it nice. I'll put my new one together spring of 2024. It really makes your swimming season longer. I live in Concord, CA so it gets pretty hot here. 90s and 100s all summer. With the solar cover on my pool is like a bath tub...89 to 96 degrees.

Short version: cover was terrible but company credited me toward the thicker/better one.Long version: I'd always bought the 1200 series and tried to squeeze a second season out of it. This year, I decided to just spend a little less and just get one season (because I was usually getting blue flaking off the cover and into the pool by the end of the life of the other); it would be more expensive in the long run, but easier (I figured). When the 800 series came, I was surprised at how much thinner and flimsier it felt. It was actually hard to get on the pool, behaving like Saran Wrap. Rolling it up to uncover the pool for use was really hard... just too flimsy. Still, I figured, it's preventing evaporation and warming the pool just as effectively.But after only 7 weeks, it was sinking; virtually all of the bubbles had cracked. It really behaved like Saran Wrap, and it was impossible to roll it up. It could not be left on the pool; it was 1-2 feet under the surface in several places.To the company's credit, I sent in pictures and within two hours had a response that I could either get a free replacement or pay up the difference to the 1200 series. I paid up the difference. Soooo...save yourself the trouble and get the 1200 (or better) series right of the bat. The 800 series simply did not hold up, but credit the company for making it right.

I have purchase a 20'X40' solar blanket from NYRS in March 2020 and started using it from May to Sept 2020 and for a similar period in 2021. The solar blanket was winterized inside my garage at all time during the winter periods. I started seeing degradation in the product when installed this past May 2022 (see pictures) the blanket was basically "disintegrating" and "falling apart" in numerous places. I contacted the seller NYRS (which is not the manufacturer) and explained the situation, after a few very cordial back and forth between ourselves and providing them with supporting information, they have resolved this issue to my entire satisfaction and definitely stood behind the products they sell. I would not hesitate to buy again from NYRS.Unfortunately I can't say the same from the manufacturer Sun2Solar. I have owned numerous pools (3) and solar blankets over my lifetime (40 years) and I have never experienced such a quick deterioration problem on any previous blankets I have owned over such a short period of time, in all, I have used the Sun2Solar blanket less than 11 months from May 2020 to date (5 months 2020 / 5 months 2021 and 1 month 2022) . I certainly hope this is an isolated incident from the manufacturer Sun2Solar. Patrick. L

As of Sep 2019 I have had this 8mil cover for 1 month shy of 2yrs (will be 2 yrs in Oct). Incredibly pleased with it. it has held up very well in the Fl sun and I will now purchase another one.Yes it has flaked a bit in the last 4-5 months, I would say less than 50 bubbles have flaked off and frankly I find it no big deal as they just go into the skimmer and then I retrieve them.If you have a heated pool this thing works excellent to trap the heat and keep it in the water instead of dissipating into the air. On average during Florida winters I am losing only a cpl degrees during the overnight hrs when using this as compared to about 10 degrees without it. This of course allows my pool heater to run less and thus save significantly on electricity costs. And during the rest of the year it allows my pool to coast at a comfortable 88 degrees-ish without losing any temp during overnight hoursAgain, this thing has been awesome!!!

Works wonderfully! We love our pool on the warm side for evening swims. We choose this cover year after year because it is always the right price, right size, right color, right bubble shape, and Amazon’s speedy delivery. The material thickness is on the thin side, but it gets the job done! Do we expect it to last more than 1 season/year? No, but it will be a bonus if it does. We have found this cover to be the best buy to meet our swim season needs and we continue to plan to order this cover year after year and you should too!Note: we’ve purchased and used many solar pool covers over the past 23 years. We’ve purchased the thickest, most expensive cover out there; the cover with the best warranty: and those in many different colors and bubble shapes. Bottom line is: The direct sunlight combined with chlorine and manipulation on-and-off the pool affects every type of pool cover. We have managed to extend many of those covers to 2 swim seasons and no more, and this cost-effective version holds up just as well as all the others!
