Review: Fantastic Pool Reel at a Great Price - Read My Detailed Review - OK, so this Reel is Fantastic! I received both boxes with all the correct pieces. People have gave this bad reviews because they did not receive both boxes. It's easy to contact the seller and they will fix that, giving it a bad review because that is a joke. Next, people have given this bad reviews because it's light weight, and falls in the pool while unrolling/ROLLING or blows in the pool on windy days. It is not heavy and made of aluminum and plastic What those people did not see is the seller recommends sand bags to act as an anchor, and I bought a four pack of these on desertcart: ABCCANOPY Sandbag Saddlebag Photography Weight Bags for Video Stand,4 Packs (Black) - and filled them with, two of these from a big box hardware store: 0.5-cu ft Brown Pea Pebbles Gravel for 3.98 a bag. This Reel went together in about 30 minutes or maybe less it was very easy to put together. Now I ordered the 18 foot reel but my Deck tops out at about 14 Feet and my pool measurements, i.e. water area is 35 long by 12 wide. I thought since it expanded up to 18 feet wide I could make it go smaller to 12 feet wide, but nope the smallest it will go is 14 feet wide. The wheels look OK and I could see them breaking over time if left out exposed to the sun and elements or being rough on them. I am going to have the lady of the house make some covers to put over the wheels because out here in Southern AZ the sun beats up everything exposed no matter how well it's made or not. Some of the plastic parts I am going to rate at 4 stars durability wise. It maneuvers OK it's not bad at all I will give it 4 stars maneuverability wise. I am using a heavy 16mil Midwest Canvas 36 x 18 cover on mine, that has been cut down to 35 x 12 and have NO SAG in the middle what so ever like some people have complained about. I think since my reel is only expanded to 14 feet the tubing I am not extending is acting as reinforcement which is great. So if your pool is say 18 feet wide, buy the 21 foot reel and the tubing not used for expansion will act as reinforcement. I am in a wheel chair so my whole goal buying a reel and cover was to make it easy for the lady of the house to take this off and on all by her self, and as you can see in the video she can reel it right up no problem. I have a second video of her unrolling it but desertcart only lets one video per review, and in that video she can unroll it no problem all on her own. I have moved my reel closer to the pool so the cover is not scraping the deck when rolling and unrolling. With the sand bags filled with pea pebbles anchoring the reel this works like a breeze, I honestly think people don't follow instructions building this, missed seeing sandbags to anchor it, or are just clueless. The attaching clips and straps that come with it work great as well. I thought it might come with junky clips to attach to the cover but the clips are really good. I highly recommend this reel it works great and when we showed our neighbor's wife video of how this works she was like, ''send me the link, my husband makes me take ours off a certain way, fold it a certain way, and then put it back on gently,'' and she goes ''I want that reel you have because it's a pain every time we want to swim to have to remove the cover with out a reel'' This reel is fantastic! -NOTE-1: My yard is under constriction we removed all the rock from both sides of our pool and are adding hardscape stone. -NOTE-2: I may edit this review if something breaks and adjust my rating but right now it's 5 STARS -NOTE-3: The Sandbags may fade over time, but who cares as long as it holds the reel or they can be replaced.
Review: Works really well!! - This model feel very sturdy! The "upgrade" question was never answered by seller, but I suspect the difference is that the base tees are solid stainless welded construction, where the other models have a plastic tee connector. I would think this model will last longer and support heavier weights. The "brake" is a nice feature to keep the cover on in place, but they don't tell you about that... it is the knob on top. The wheels are solid and feel like they will last. The crank wheel is superb. Assembly time was minimal, I put together the same day I received. This included some special customizing I did to make this 18' model a perfect match for my 7' wide lap pool. I took the 2 smaller interior tubs and cut them down about 30" each, which really doubles the strength of the assembly, and allows about 9" on each side incase the cover wanders when rolling. The exterior tube is 7', but you can't attach the end stems to it. So, If you do this, remember to cut off the side that doesn't have holes in them because these are used to fasten to the end stems. The straps I shortened as well, otherwise they tend to wander back and forth on the tube, which allows the cover to wander back and forth. The instructions were... well... OK if you read between the lines, but as others have mentioned not perfect. Pictures attached were uploaded in the correct format, but desertcart has spun some of them sideways - no way for me to fix them - sorry! FYI - Others have mentioned frustration about the seller/manufacturer's lack of answering/responding to questions or phone calls. I was aware of this prior to purchasing, and I think I am OK with that because it works for me... Otherwise if you have to return, and you are able to get desertcart in the middle, you are paying shipping. End result, I can crank it on or off in about 30 seconds, and I think my covers will now last longer because they aren't being dragged over the concrete rubbing holes into the bubbles.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: I have a 18ft wide pool how far does the reel extend past the opening?**
A: Yes..but the more you increase the width the strength of the reel will be sacrificed. I also felt customer support was non existent.

**Q: My wife and i just unpackaged a vingli, but there are no written instructions.  are there instructions available on line or?**
A: Did anyone every get back with help on those instructions? We don’t have then either and the outer/inner tube part seems way too long and is not sturdy with only a foot or so overlapping. Don’t even have a cover in it and it’s sagging! And help would be great. Company has not responded to mey nquiry. I can’t believe they are not online

**Q: Will this fit 18x40 pool or should I go with the 21ft??**
A: Go with the larger one. I have mine stretched out to 16 feet for a 14 foot wide cover. Stretching it out to the Max of 18 feet, it will work but tends to sag in the middle and you will need the extra foot on each side because the cover will not always roll up exactly in the same place every time especially if its a little breezy when you roll it up. It is a one person operation but, its always nice to have an extra person to help on windy days. Remember to go slow and it will work great. I love mine it works great but, I lay mine down when the pool is covered because the wind tends to get under the cover and pull the reel over. So YES, always go bigger. Hope this helps...enjoy.

**Q: Can this roller be cut down to 11' ?**
A: My pool is 11.75 Feet wide.  I wanted it cut to like 12 feet   So it’s on my handyman’s list.  But after using it I’m realizing the extra couple inches I was allowing for isn’t really enough  the reel needs to be very close to the edge  to get my length of 35/36 ft so I decided  to allow for a foot over on each side  I’m going to cut it to 14 feet

De très bonne qualité ! Facile à utiliser seul. Un peu compliqué à assembler à cause des instructions (manque de détails) mais on y arrive. En somme, c'est un très bon achat.
