solar cover(blanket)

[hayfarmer]

HI Everyone, hope everyone had a great winter!!!
Hey i have to replace my solar cover this year and was wondering if the more expensive ones are worth it or just go with the cheaper ones... I am thinking more expensive is better!!! they are thicker. And does anyone have a good online store to buy them from..
Thanks
jim

The general concensus here is that no matter what you buy it's only going to last a couple of years so buying mid to low priced models work out the best. I may get three years out of my el-cheapo model but that's because I store in inside when it's not being used.

I've had cheap, midline, and expensive. The expensive one only lasted a year or two longer than the midline ones. So it's up to you if you think it's worth the added expense...
