Great Product!
I purchased this cover to replace an existing handrail cover. They are easy to place and work great in the Arizona heat...

Great product!
We purchased Koolgrips for our railings years ago and lasted through many seasons. After replacing our old grips, with brand new ones, we were still very pleased with the product! Our patrons love them and thank us over and over for supplying such nice pool equipment. Thank you for the service!

Best price for a great product
My 80 year old mother needed this grip to get out of the pool after having a knee replaced. It works great. Make sure you leave it lay the sun prior to installing. It makes it easier to stretch and fit on the railing.

This is my second set of Koolgrips. They make it much easier to get in and out of the pool in California where the metal hand rails get so hot. They look and feel great.

Great for the hands!
The pool grips is working out just fine. Definitely more comfortable grabbing the railing now. However, only a 1 yr warranty for the price seems a little slim. Will reserve judgment until I see how long it lasts.

no more slips or burned hands
Love these. My second pair. I highly recommend you also purchase the protectant so they will last longer.

We have gotten the Koolgrips a year ago and with the high temps here they hold out really good.

This is the 3rd one. They last 2 years in the Florida sun. We live in a 55+ community and the grip is great for the handrail out of the pool.

Fair product
I bought the third pair of Kool Grips a couple of weeks back. The last pair rotted and fell apart after two years this did not please me especially after paying the outrageous price of $79 plus for them. What can be done when no one else sells them? Although, this time I bought the smaller ones which cost less but...oh well.

Good Product
We have a lot of elderly people and small kids using our pool and the grips really help them get into and out of the pool. I highly recommend a UV spray to keep them from fading and from losing elasticity. The spray is also somewhat tacky, which helps the overall grip. During the off-season, I remove them from the ladders, dry them completely, dust them with corn starch and store them in a plastic bag in a controlled air environment (like your house for example, not outside). The rubber backing does deteriorate after 2-3 seasons and if stored without corn starch will stick together causing the backing to rip apart. With proper care, they are well worth the cost.

Definitely worth the money
I put the koolgrip on my ladder coming out of the pool. It was easy to install by just zipping over the existing ladder. Keeps hands from touching hot metal & possibly burning them. Wish I had purchased one a long time ago.

Good Idea
They are expensive since you have to order them separately. I originally ordered the Royal Blue, but after reading the reviews I decided to return and exchange for Desert Sand. However, Desert Sand is not the color of sand at all - it is DARK BROWN. I am disappointed that the color is not what it's advertised to be. I will need to use the UV protectant spray after all....it was another $20.

Outstanding product!
I put Kool grips on the ladder and where you walk down the steps into the pool. They truely work! I think I should have bought the UV protectant and perhaps the blue wouldn't have faded as much as it did in this Las Vegas sun/heat. Maybe I should have purchased the beige instead of the blue. I like Kool grips so much that I am buying some for my friends for Christmas!

Order Two!
These Kool Grips as they're called are both cool and Kool to have. Although, ordering one for $39 will definitely not suffice 'cause you actually need two, one for each ladder. The price is misleading 'cause at $78 it's no longer a deal. One last thing, the color fades rather quickly. It lasted only one hot summer in southern California.

You won't regret these!
I was very satisfied with the koolgrips. They are very easy to install, make the ladder look really sharp and are so much cooler than the bare metal used to be in the direct sunshine.

Terrific!
It's been in the 100's for the past 12 days here, and kool grips has kept me from burning my hand on the railing into our pool. It was so easy to install. Great for helping small little hands to grip the rail,too.

must have item
Wish we had them sooner. They should be a mandatory item for every pool owner. Just for the safety issue alone they are a must to have. Yes they are a little pricey for just one, but well worth it in saved Dr. bills.

Ad Misleading
Whereas the quality of this product is quite good, the listing in the catalog as Kool Grips is clearly misleading. I presumed that I would be getting a pair (would anyone ever really order just one?) since the price and the ad both suggest a pair.

Great product
This is a great product. Make for a safe entry and exit to pool. Used my first one for 4 years. Only thing is it faded rather quickly. Will try the UV Protectant Spray next time.
Highly recommend, especially for older swimmers.
