Holds the heat. Best we’ve bought yet!!

Bought the 'heavy' one (14 mil) end of August 2018.. barely used it the 1st summer, but was put well at use in 2019-2021.. So that's the 3rd summer and we started noticing this summer like someone else reported, pieces of plastic in the skimmer basket and some of the bubbles were popped open. Strangely enough it isn't everywhere on the cover, only some spots.. Was told by CSR that it was the chemicals and that wasn't covered by the warranty, only the seams were.. which is very surprising considering the whole cover material should be covered by the warranty. The cover is very effective to keep the water warm, as we were able to enjoy the pool this last summer from early June until late September (last jump was on 09/25 and the water was still 24°, which isn't bad for Southern Quebec). We were able to maintain a solid 27-28° during this summer, even hitting shortly 30°, when our neighbors only got it around 25-26°. I sent an inquiry to the customer service to check what the warranty covers, because it originally stated that this quality cover should last at least 6 years.

Works great, not to heavy to roll on and off, and to deal with on the reel. Tough, sharp looking, and works as advertised!
