New Solar Cover Needed

[huskerfan]

Just double checked- my Magni Clear is actually a 14 mil, not a 12 mil as stated in my last reply.

Since I find covers are only good for 3 years whether I buy a cheap blue one or expensive 16 mil diamond clear, I gave up and now buy the 12 mil blue transparent ones. The warranty on a solar cover ONLY covers de-lamination of the assembly strips, not the failure of the cover when the bubbles pop off in the 3rd year. Having been burned twice, my current cover was a cheapie and, in its third year, is probably done, too. It works nearly as well as the expensive one at insulating, and rolls up SO much nicer than a 16 mil!

Thanks guys. I had to make a quick decision and ended up placing my order before these replies. I ended up getting a standard clear cover that is 16mil. I got it for a good price on ebay so I figure I couldnt pass it up. My first cover lasted about 5 seasons. I stayed clear of the diamond cover since my bro in law has one and had a lot of issues with it.
