Solar Cover Reel Recommendations...

[gdog2004]

Hey guys, I am finally getting use out of my solar cover but also realizing it is a major pain to take on and off everyday.
I was looking at reels on Amazon but the main ones that come up have a "caution" on the seller and is not PRIME

and the other reels don't have many reviews. . Can anyone else make any reasonably priced recommendations ? My pool is 32x16 --so I would imagine I would need an 18ft one.

We bought that exact one. We've had it for 2 years now and have hadn't had any issues with it except for a couple of screws coming loose. It is adjustable so you can make it less than 18' if needed.

I bought one last fall that looks almost the same for my 18x35 pool. Goplus Pool Cover Reel Set I have the 21 ft version because I store the reel under a 20 ft bench and need the handle exposed. So far, so good.

I've tried a couple low budget solutions. Failed miserably. I have to span about 23', by about 37', so ended up spending the money and got a Rocky Reel with the heavy duty commercial 4" tubing. I'm into my second season, and it's like new, and doesn't bend AT ALL. Loving it. Residential Pool Reel Systems - Residential - Rocky's Reels- solar reels
