Customer Reviews for Fine Mesh In-Ground Winter Pool Covers
Review 1 for Fine Mesh In-Ground Winter Pool Covers
Overall Rating:
Too lightweight. Easily caught by the wind.,
Date:August 6, 2012

Pros: This cover is very lightweight. Easy to fold up for summer storage.
Cons: Very lightweight. Easy for the wind to be caught under it carrying dirt and leaves into the pool.
"I thought this would be a perfect solution to my winter cover problems. It was very light and easy to put over the pool, but I could not keep this winter cover tight. To effectively work this pool cover must be kept off the top of the water. After only one winter's use, I threw it away. I was really disappointed."

horrible pool cover,

Pros: light weight
Cons: does not filter debris
"just removed pool cover and the pool water is lime green and the bottom of the pool is covered in dirt. In the past with a standard plastic type cover, the leaves accumulated but when the cover was removed the water was crystal clear. Don't waste your money. I'm returning it for a refund. I wish I could rate it with negative stars!"

AWFUL,

Pros: None
Cons: Not as expected
"I uncovered my pool today and it looks like a lake. I've got so much junk in the pool, I'm afraid it will take a lot of time over the next week or so to clear it up. I will throw it away and go back to a regular solid cover."

Water Never Seeped Through!,

"Unless In The Swim sent us the wrong pool cover, this pool cover didn't let ANY water through that we could tell. We still had to drain the cover all winter."

Overall Rating:
Avoid like the plague!!,
Date:May 2, 2008
By Cajto
Pros: Looked good the first day I had it on
Cons: Does not work, complete waste of money.
"This did not work at all, the pool has taken a week to clear up, ~$100 in chemicals and a great deal of my time. Well, not only did far more than the rainwater pass through, but there was thousands of gallons of water on the cover as it sank to the bottom of the pool that would not "simply" pass through when it was removed. I paid double what I would have for a simple hard cover as well as the chemicals to remediate the mess and the result was an absolute disaster. All the water on top of the cover(that could not be pumped off) turned into a swampy breeding ground for insects that smelled so bad, we couldn't even eat in our own yard.
This cover is absolutely useless, I could have left my pool uncovered and end up the the same result."

Better than most,

Pros: Lets water through
Cons: none
"This is my second winter with this cover and it still look new. I like the fact that it allows the pool to fill up over the winter saving water in the spring. No draining the cover either."

Not the Greatest!,
Date:October 17, 2007
By PoolGuy2007
Pros: Decent quality, easy to install
Cons: Water does not drain through cover.
"I bought this cover last fall and it did not work as anticipated. Water accumulates on cover and does not pass through like the ad says. I expected this cover to allow the rain water to run through and thus allow me to keep the leaves etc off the cover. Nope!! Didn't work like that! After one good rain the cover was sagging and pulling all the water bags into the pool."

Overall Rating:
Leary of warranty,
Date:July 6, 2007
By Cajun
Pros: Looks like it will do the job. Haven't used it yet.
Cons: Warranty came back from address they told me to send it to as undeliverable.
"Warranty card came back with a note that this company had no forwarding address. The product looks as good as I thought it would but I doubt that will last more than a couple of winters. But it is a good buy for the price."

False advertising,
Date:May 18, 2007
By Christy
from E Wenatchee, WA
from E Wenatchee, WA
Pros: Lightweight
Cons: It didn't deliver what it advertised.
"Was excited to remove the cover last night, because I thought it was going to be an easy task, according to the features it advertised. The water did not drain through as advertised and there was a lot of debris in the pool. The water on top was so heavy that it started pulling the handle loops apart! This is the first year, I want my money back!"
