I have the wide mouth WaterWay skimmer, and am happy with it. I do like the locking basket, although I have no experience using the skimmer socks. I was thinking of trying them, but haven't really found the need to yet. Yes, the weir does have exposed styrofoam on the backside, but I haven't noticed any problems with bugs sticking to it, and I seem to get alot of bugs in my skimmer basket (no wasps), but alot of hardshell bugs and other ones I can;t identify, especially if I run my pump overnite.
