Aluminum Solar Swimming Inground Pool Cover Reel Set (14FT, Blue)

This arrived last night and I put it together by myself this morning in a couple of hours. The directions are just pictures but it has a URL for a video. The only thing that is not clear in the directions (both written and video) are the assembly of the tubes. I put it together but it was too long, so I closed the gap in the center section until It was the length I wanted. Then I drilled a 3/16" hole through the existing hole into the pipe underneath and put the screw in. Afterwards there were 4 exposed holes on the pipes on the outside with no corresponding holes on the inside. There were also 4 extra screws. As I wanted it to be more sturdy I again drilled 3/16" holes and put the screws in. Also, the video tells you that you need to slide the clips onto the pipes before you put them together. That is not true as you can can put them on the smaller diameter pipes through the end and the larger diameter pipes from the edge of the pipe. The reel works really well. It is exactly what I needed.

Pool cover reel functions very well. Easy to roll the pool cover off pool when in use. After pool cover is rolled onto the reel, we move the reel/cover to end of the pool on concrete to be out of the way, etc. It is not heavy by any means and very easily transportable with a person on each end lifting and moving, etc. Structurally it could use a bit more support We have it set at 12.8 feet, it only goes to 14 feet. The tubes should be a bit longer for our use and they should be overlapping more to provide better support overall. The velcro has the tendency to slide off and has to be slid back on from time-to-time. Overall, for the price it is a good buy.

I have a Vingli 21' pool reel and after 3 years, the included straps were starting to wear out.These were a great replacement, easy to install and strong as all get-out.

El set cumple con todos los requisitos para atar adecuadamente la manta solar al arrollador. Son muy fáciles de colocar.

I don’t know how these are supposed to work, but it falls into my pool. It’s brand new and the reel is already creaking. It breaks apart on me. And when you reel in the solar cover, it never goes on properly so it defeats the purpose of making things easier.

Works great! We have a 12x20 rectangular inground pool. Easy on and off with the cover and assembly was straightforward and easy to complete. No complaints.

We got this a few days ago for our 12x24 pool. Good quality materials and fairly straightforward assembly instructions. The spindle is comprised of 5 pieces and does bow a little in the center. It is very easy for one person to roll up the cover and re-cover the pool after use. Seems to be the right price for the quality.

They fit perfect
