Bought this last week: US Pools Tool Organizer
This is a fantastic storage rack from US Pools for all pool cleaning accessories. I had this stuff laying all around my pool area for years before I finally got frustrated not being able to find things when I needed them (tossed loose into a poolside plastic storage box or hither and yon ) and decided to organize it once and for all.

Now for the caveat ... the screws that come with it are not very good .. for some reason, none of my phillips drivers or bits would fit one of the two screws it came with. This is unfortunate because the organizer itself is top-notch.
The thing that I love the most about it is that we have two pool poles, .. one that came with the house and another that a pool company that we paid to do closing left behind ( I called them and left a message but they never called me back to retrieve it ) and this thing can hold both of them in a vertical position. If you have been thinking about an organizer for your pool tools that will mount easily to your fence, go ahead and pull the trigger on this. Just make sure that you have some better quality mounting screws than the ones that come in the package. Good luck and happy organizing!

I would recommend a separate hook for your vacuum hose, the included strap will work but it's kind of awkward.

Agree! I've had mine since right after the pool was filled, and it is great! Keeps everything off of the ground or out of a bin and where you can access it. Bummer to hear about the screws.

Looks very useful! How does it mount to the fence? With a bracket or screw in and attach directly? I'd probably look to attach mine to the outside of my deck so just trying to picture how it would work.

Thx
 
I got this and finally attached it to my newly restored deck. Works great, and is mostly out of sight but well within my reach from the steps. Thanks for the rec!

Couldn’t agree more with your review. I got one of these a few months ago and extremely happy with it. Yes the screws suck and what’s worse is they are recessed once you drive them in, so the cover can slide over them. It makes it difficult to find other screws that will work. It was worth the hassle though.
