Best time saver yet,

Date:December 19, 2011

By MaintH8tr

from WI

Pros: Very easy to install, much more durable than bags, no winter maintenance

Cons: Could be longer and / or wider to add weight and reduce #

"After 2 off-seasons with water bags, I just got enough of the aqua blocks to cover about 3/4 of the perimeter, thinking I could use the remaining bags that had not already broken for the rest. I loved the 3 sides that got aqua blocks, and cursed the entire time on the side with the bags because it took twice as long as the other 3 sides combined, and got me all wet! I have already replaced 2 bags due to leakage in the last 2 months. Next year, it is all blocks, all the way. Any money spent on the blocks will be made up in time savings with your first install and spring takedown - definitely a must purchase for people like me who HATE pool maintenance!"

Acceptable performance,

Date:September 12, 2009

By Lawnchrist

from Trenton, NJ

Pros: Easy to clean, Easy to set up

Cons: Needs to be a little thicker construction, need lots of them.

"This past year was the first year using them. I did not purchase enough of them to go around the whole pool so I had both the blocks and bags. They were just as effective as bags as both had a tendency to be dragged towards the pool. However we did loose a couple of bags during winter due to leakage and that side wound up in the drink. The aqua blocks stayed full. Some of the lids did blow off and had to be put back on several times. Cleanup was super easy, just dump the water and stack. This year I am getting enough for the other half and possibly positioning them diagonally to keep more weight on the cover to keep it from slipping. I'm done with bags. However they do take up more space in storage."

SO FAR SO GOOD,

Date:December 15, 2008

By TheRu

from michigan

Pros: The dog doesn't eat them like the water tubes

Cons: could be bigger

"we tried because the dog seemed to love to chew on the water tubes. actually they work pretty well. . It's the middle of winter now, and so far I haven't had any problems with the lids. They stack and store a lot easier than the tubes. overall I would say it is a good product."

Aqua Blocks,

Date:November 27, 2008

By dk1820

from Long Island, NY

Pros: easy to use, easy to store don't lose water

Cons: a little more expensive than water bags

"I searched the internet and stores and found the price here is the best for the aqua blocks. This product is better than water bags because they don't break and don't need to be replaced as often. They stack for easy storage and retain the water all winter long. Much easier to setup and fill than water bags. Great produt."
