We've got a solar cover and reel. It's very easy for one person to unroll a solar cover using a reel. If my 5 year old is in a very "helpful" mood then I'll let her grab one side of the cover and walk along the edge while I unroll it, but she's really not doing much "helping"...she doesn't know that though. And at $200-$400 for a good solar cover and reel it's WAY cheaper than than $7,000+ for an auto cover.

The key to an easy unroll is a good roll up!
