doubtful it will last,

Pros: none
Cons: as thin as the cheap covers, nothing like the picture
"opened box labor day . very thin just like $50.00 blue covers. I have a 21' above ground pool. & live in Chicago.
the cheap cover last one winter. I hope this one makes it.
with a pillow in the pool the cover doesn't hang like the picture. It is not a custom fir cover like the picture shows. it does have grommets and cable to tighten it down just like the cheap covers and bunches up the same. Do not buy it because the picture looks like a tight fit its not true.I also bought the clips for and extra $10.00. Ill know more in the spring."

Awesome cover,
May 27, 2009
By Karen814
from Chicago
|
Pros: Keeps dirt out. Very durable
Cons: none
"Just completed my first winter with this cover. It's lightweight and extremely durable. I was hesitant because it was not nearly as heavy as my old winter covers. I was wrong. I live in the midwest had an extremely bad winter. The cover stayed put, no problems, and when opening this spring, there was NO dirt on the bottom of the pool. Water was crystal clear as usual. If the water wasn't so cold I could have jumped right in. Fantastic cover!!"

worst cover ever,
January 23, 2009
By Lavonne
from Columbus, Ohio
|
Pros: none
Cons: tears easily does not anchor well
"This cover tears easily and clips do not hold it well on the pool. The cover is the worst cover I have ever purchased. The economy cover I got with the pool 7 years ago was better than this cover."

Pros: easy to install,quality and warranty
Cons: none found
"I have bought many things from In the Swim and I needed a new cover for my above ground pool. Many out there and some are pretty cheeply made. Thia has a great product Warranty. I shopped around and was able to get price match from In the Swim. Easy to install by myself, normall it would take 3 people to get done. A must is the clipd that keep to from getting damaged and holds it in place while installing."

Pros: great overlap
Cons: none so far
"this cover is easy to put over the pool. looks better than other colors, to look upon during the winter month. was light weight to pull on, even just one person can do it. the loops are very strong. the entire costruction is very well made. this is the first season for me, but i am sure the best purchase for the covers i had in the past. look forward for the time of removing it, to see if the water stays clearer,with this cover."

Good purchase,
November 27, 2008
By Toader
from Colchester, CT
|
Pros: Light-weight, low maintenance
Cons: I didn't buy it sooner
"After having to replace my pool cover each of the past 3 years I decided to take a shot with this cover. I couldn't have been more pleased. It's by far the best cover I've ever used. It does seem plastic-like as someone else pointed out but that doesn't seem to be a problem. I get lots of leaves, rain and snow during the off-season and maintaning the cover so far has been no problem. There's ample overlap and the clips have held up under significant leaf weight."

Great Pool Cover,
November 27, 2008
By MJD1
from Brick, NJ
|
Pros: Very Strong...water will not seap thru cover into pool
Cons: None
"In 6 years, this is the 3rd cover that I've purchased...and it's "by far" the best one I've owned. All previous covers had a weave, that eventually stretched open allowing water to filter thru the cover into the pool. This cover has a coating over the weave, making it practically a solid cover.

good product,
November 27, 2008
By sexypoolboy
from n.e. Ohio

Pros: fit well, construction is great
Cons: the cable supplied is not long enough !!
"I purchased the armor kote winter cover for my 18x33 above ground pool with the x-tra charge cover clips. the cover seems to fit very well, and construction is good. the biggest drawback is that the supplied cable was not even long enough to go all the way around the pool! let alone long enough to thread into the cable rachet!! I had to go to the local hardware store and buy a cable. I was less than pleased to have a 33 ft.long sheet of plastic that was blown around by the wind until I got back from the hardware store"

So far so good,
November 26, 2008
By KeeperofthePool
from West Central Ohio
|
Pros: Cover seems durable
Cons: Don't know yet
"I live in an area of the country that tends to get very high winds over the winter. Every cover I have purchased (I am on the fourth one in ten years) never lasts. The seams rip or I get a lot of holes. I have tried just about everything to keep them secure and non-flapping, but the wind always wins. The little black pool cover clips DO NOT WORK! Don't buy them they just blow away.
This is my first winter season with this cover, I will come back and let you know how it holds up."

Pros: strong cover
Cons: doesn't let water through
"I like the cover. It appears to be nice & strong. It does not let the water through as claimed by the other review. That disappointed me. I purchased it thinking it would even though it never claimed to in its description. It is an overall nice strong cover."
