Intex 12' Solar Pool Cover Review

Intex 12' Solar Pool Cover
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This product has a number of faults:
1) It's only 118" in diameter, meaning that it will NOT actually hang over and grip to the top ring and side walls of the pool...this is very different from good pool covers that that are oversized and create a good seal and grip. What's funny is that the instructions with this cover state that the sides must overhang the pool!
2) This cover has manufactured holes in it about the size of half-dollar coins...for those of you that have had a pool cover, you know that is not necessarily a good thing.
3) Finally, this cover comes across as cheap, blue-dyed bubble wrap. It is not a material specifically designed to trap solar energy to heat the water below.
We were finally able to find a true solar cover at a retail store that is of a high-quality, transparent plastic material that captures heat, still lays on the water surface, but also overhangs the pool lip to grip the sides.
Overall, I strongly advise all readers to NOT purchase this item.

Intex 4,000-Gallon Filter Pump Review

I purchased this unit to replace the smaller weak stock filter pump that came with my 18x48 easy set pool. This unit is VERY strong! It even cleaned up the debris off the bottom without even vacuuming the pool! I highly recommend this pump to anyone tired of messing with the under powered pumps that come with the easy set pools. Caution should be used around children however, as this pump could cause a suction hazard.

Aero Spa Inflatable Hot Tub in Beige Review

I bought this product because of the limited space I have. Tried inflating it, as instructed, but it would only hold air for few minutes. Even if I had gotten to the point of putting water in it, it would have all leaked out before I could even begin to enjoy it. Don't waste your money

Intex Krystal Clear 10-Foot Solar Pool Cover Review

Intex Krystal Clear 10-Foot Solar Pool Cover

We bought this because the pool water was freezing cold every time we went to go into it. We noticed a HUGE difference with this cover. We leave it on 100% of the time except for when we are in it. (obviously) The sun beating down on it warms the water tremendously.
The only things we don't like is that when it rains, the rain water can still get in and it chills the water off. Also, the water remains cold when it is a little overcast for a day or 2. other than than, great product!
