Quality has gone down hill
2 Stars
Quality has gone down hill
This is the 3rd time I've purchased the Blue Wave pool cover over the years. These cover usually last me 3 winters but his last one is a different story. Their quality has obviously gone down hill. I knew when I installed the cover it wasn't going to make it because it was already coming apart at one of the seams. I'll be reaching out to them to see if they truly honor their warranty. According to the description the first year is warranted for a full replacement on defects and material degradation.The sizing is accurate and the cover is easy to install. It is a 2 person job but there's no way around that unless you want the cover to end up in the water. The material is pretty light weight but that's to be expected at this price point. All I really care about is keeping the leaves out of my pool. Be careful putting a pump on the cover to drain rain water because it will suck the water out of your pool. I put my pump on the very edge so it doesn't sink down into the pool water.Hopefully Blue Wave will honor their warranty and I'll continue to purchase their cover.

1.0 out of 5 stars Defective
Reviewed in the United States on March 13, 2024
Bought this in May covered pool in September. Skip to
March (6.5 mos) later the cover completely shredded from the sides into our pool. Exposing our brand new liner we had installed two days before covering. I had to call a pool company in the middle of winter to fix this mess. Decided to call for a refund hope their warranty holds true.
Update: After contacting Amazon they told me I had to contact the Blue Wave company as the purchase was out of the 30 day window. I contacted Blue Wave and they will not refund my money they wanted to replace my cover with a new one. They told me to contact Amazon so again I did that and they said I had to send the defective cover back and they would send me a new cover with a 12% restocking fee (REALLY) the shredded cover was thrown out. I told them I just wanted my money refunded and NOPE not happening so please be aware your cover will fall apart and you will not get your money back. Apparently the WARRANTY is for a new cover not money from Amazon or the Blue Wave company RANT over.
