VEVOR Solar Pool Cover, 24 x 12 ft Rectangle Solar Cover 16 mil for Pools, Inground Above Ground Swimming Pool Solar Blanket with Bubble, Heat Retaining Solar Covers Blue

We've had others that worked well but they all seem to dry out and start falling apart after a year or two in the FL sun. Previous covers helped hold heat better than they actually produced it, this one even though it says it's a mil or 2 thinner than a previous one has absolutely outperformed every other one in both retention and heat generation. I'm very close to buying a second just to have when this one eventually wears out since they all will. I just want to make sure I can get another one it works so well. So far we've had this one for ~7 months and it's still looking great so expect it to last as long or longer than any of the previous ones. We did also get the roller and that was life changing, it makes getting it off and back on SO much easier, both well worth the investment.

I decided to stop buying the cheapest cover as they never make it a year and only average 6 months. They start to tear and I get the pool skimmer full of little blue pieces of plastic.This unit is so obviously more thick and durable that I will be amazed it I don't get multiple seasons out of it. I will try to update this post when it does become useless. However, 2 months in and going great.***Update*** 5 months later and it is holding together great, but......As you can see from the image there is always some water on top of the cover. Which means the sun is heating up that water first and evaporating. Soooo, it's not doing great at keeping the water warm and slowing down evaporation. Really had my fingers crossed for this cover.

Nice cover, holds the heat, easy to cut, nice and thick. Replaced an old cover that didn't make it thru Hurricane Milton.

Great quality / durable and easy to shape for our pool.

Great product and heavier material than our previous cover. It really helps maintain heat and reduces evaporation from our indoor pool.

No hype, this cover is definitely thicker. And, the others tell you a size, but are always a few inches smaller. This cover is exactly as represented THANK YOU! And a small extra plus, but makes a big difference in evaporation saveings, the others have 3" wide seams running the full length with no bubble flotation. Water always accumulates on thez stripes, thus constant evaporation is wasted. On this cover, there are NO LINEAR SEAMS. (so bubbles cover the entire surface) Better flotation, better insulation! Didn't get paid to say this, it just bugs me what garbage the other brands are, that's ALOT of plastic to have to be throwing away every year when the cheap stuff delaminates. This one is well worth the few extra dollars, I just hope it lasts a couple years?

My husband and I were skeptical and just purchased this and I have to say so far it’s an amazing investment. It keeps the heat in the pool AND also heats it without the heater and about 5 degrees on a sunny day or more! So far so great!

Unfortunately the bubbles are so small that it won’t float on top of water. Water gets on top causing it to sink. Then when rolling it up, the weight of water keeps it from rolling smoothly. I’m planning to toss it after I get the decking painted. I guess you get what you pay for.
