If I were to do it over again, I would have gone with a solid cover that attaches like our mesh safety cover. It certainly looks better and I wouldn't have to mess with water bags. To replace the mesh cover now would cost $$$$, so I'll deal with the water bags until the mesh cover wears out. Once the mesh cover wears out, then we'll have a solid cover made to fit (you can have a cover made to fit your pool shape).

I'm sorry, I don't know what you mean by "...I dont want to do the back thing..."?

Thanks again. That was a typo. It was to say bag, not back.
So, with the solid safety type cover, I assume it must stretch ( or it's just the springs where it attaches) to allow the weight of the water that collects. Any one out there use one of these?

Like the mesh safety cover, the solid safety cover has springs where it attaches to the concrete anchors.

I've actually thought about how I might attach my tarp style solid cover to my mesh safety cover so that I don't have to use the water bags. So far I've not come up with something that I'm confident would work well.
