Sun2Solar Blue 16 ft. x 32 ft. Rectangle Solar Cover | 1200 Series | Heat Retaining Blanket for In-Ground and Above-Ground Rectangular Swimming Pools | Use Sun to Heat Pool | Bubble-Side Down

This product is GARBAGE! It lasted one season. The second season we started seeing the bubbles break and fall apart because of being brittle. It worked great the first year but at the beginning of the third season it was trashed. We never let it sit in recently chlorinated water, reeled it up when not using it and stored it indoors through winter. With a claimed 10 year warranty this is what customer service had say. My last message before advising them I was posting their response on Amazon's Review: Attached are the photos requested. Again, the link below has all the photos for your convenience. It is clearly broken on the seam. I'm not sure what a warranty might be if the product doesn't perform within two years of purchase especially if it claims to have a 8 to 10 year warranty. Their response: We have received your photos, and have had our specialists review them for warranty coverage. Unfortunately, what is shown in the photos is not covered by the manufacturer's limited warranty. This warranty only covers manufacturing defects and does not cover rips, tears, or bubble damage. The manufacturing defects covered would be true seam separation, where the layers that make the seam begin to peel apart from each other, and delamination, which is the separation of the layers that make up the solar cover. As the photos submitted do not show a manufacturing defect, the warranty claim has been denied. If you do have a photo showing one, or both, of these conditions, please submit this for warranty review. Thank you So there's clearly no integrity behind this company's warranty. ...Response from Company... After replying back to the company about how our their warranty coverage was and another request for pictures, I advised them that I had sent 29 photos and they could clearly see the damage. I stated the warranty is useless if it covers things that don't occur. I further stated that I would be spreading the word that they didn't stand behind their product/warranty. The next morning I received an email saying the warranty was approved. I paid the shipping and handling cost for a replacement. I changed my review rating from 1 star to 3. The product ought to last more than one or two seasons. And it should not be such a hassle to make a claim. Either make a better product or acknowledge claims against the warranty. We will see how long this replacement lasts. Thanks though for honoring the warranty.

I bought this cover back in 2022 and it worked great at retaining heat. It helps get you a little extra time at the end of season and beginning of swim time. This is the 4th active season for it that we have used it. It has started falling apart in areas and it will be the last season for it. Time to put into the recycling bin. I do plan to buy another one though for next season.

Went end of the pool covered, was jagged and not a straight line which makes it very hard to line up with the pool edge of the pool. Not the quality that we expected and what we had the last time we ordered a pool cover from Amazon.

This is as described. I cut it roughly to fit the shape of my in ground pool and it stays in place, warms it substantially in the sun, reduces chlorine loss, and reduces evaporation which can waste water and quickly cool the water. I don't have a cover roller thing as I'm not that dedicated, but pulling it on and off isn't too hard. Just don't let it lay on the grass more than an hour or there's no going back! Also be careful pulling it after the first year as it is prone to tearing as it ages. This is my second one and I know others who used these sort of bubble wrap covers, and some things seem certain. The bubbles eventually fill with water and/or separate leading to shedding of plastic circles and degraded performance. My first one was great the first year, started falling apart the second, and rapidly turned to bits and strips of plastic the third. Your experience should be better if you treat it well (keep if off the pool when chlorine is too high, don't leave it out year round, move it carefully or with a cover roller). I recommend these and you won't be disappointed if you go in with realistic expectations and the knowledge that it does degrade and won't last as long as advertised. And I pity the fools who think warranties on things like this are worth anything or are easy to use.

We purchased this to cover the pool while we were away from January to March. When it arrived we were a bit sceptical about how effective it would be as the bubbles are only slightly bigger than those in bubble wrap (but the material is much hardier). We trimmed it to fit our kidney shaped pool and then rolled it up. It’s a two man job, but place the (massive and heavy) roll on one end of the pool, a person on either side grabs it, and you heave it across to the far end. It simple floated as we layed it out. I’d dumped a ton of chemicals in the pool and while the ambient temperature was chilly, the water stayed crystal clear and debris free. With no maintenance. Amazing. Our trip was extended til May and being in Texas the temperatures started climbing at the end of March. Warm weather and rain. Under a bubble cover which warmed the water even more. It became an incubator for algae. Gross. BUT that was our bad, the cover did its job. The only reason I mention it is if some of you folk in the parts of the US that are chillier than Texas would like a way to keep your pool water warmer, this will work great! I’ll put it back on when it’s too cold to swim (so that’ll be January, lol).
