What customers say
Customers highly value the Economy 28 Pool Cover for its excellent initial affordability, making it a strong budget choice for pool closing. The fit for the 28-foot round size is generally accurate, and setup is simple. However, the primary concern centers on durability and longevity. Many users report that the cover struggles through a full winter, experiencing premature tearing near edges or grommets, especially under heavy snow. The consensus suggests the cover rarely lasts beyond two seasons. While it offers exceptional short-term value, the need for frequent replacement can offset initial savings. Satisfaction is highest among buyers who expect a temporary, low-cost solution rather than multi-season performance.
