Above Ground Pool Leaf Skimmer Kit (Net NOT Included)

It’s fine. Little expensive, you can certainly buy the tools at Home Depot but worth appreciate the mechanic design for sure.

I have a deck around my pool and I didn't want to screw it to my deck OR pool rail so in my case I screwed 4 short lengths of 2x4 together to get it to the height I needed, then weighted them down with 8# stone pavers. Last year I was emptying the skimmer 4-6 times a day because of oak goobers, helicopters and tiny blossoms and pollen. This rig is catching I would say 80% of it. Only have to dump skimmer twice a day. You have to move it around until most of the floaters go in your net, I have it about 2" under water before my skimmer. Works like a charm!

This works great, but would like to see a longer T Connector so there is more height adjustment options. Currently when my pool is full of rainwater (anything above 2" below the top of skimmer) the net will not go high enough to do it's job. Other than that this is a great product

My inground pool is surrounded by trees. One tree in particular, sheds leaves all summer long. Cut down a few, but some are too big and on my neighbor's property, so no go.If I went somewhere for over two days, my skimmer would be filled and the pump grinding away, getting hot from the vacuum created. I purchased two of these and installed one just in front of the skimmer downstream from the flow and the other on the opposite side. Both were full many times, and the skimmer saved. Yes, there were still leaves in the skimmer, but manageable.

This product works alright but it wasn't worth the cost

I have made my own mount for the net in the past on our other pools so I was glad to find this product. It is easy to install and has worked very well for me so far. It has enough adjustment to fit the clearance to the wall of various size nets and can be raised or lowered as needed.I don't have trees very close to my pool but in the fall and early winter the wind blows them in and this helps catch a great deal of them. I don't even cover my pool any more after just fighting the leaves for a few weeks and this makes it much, much easier. This is on an above ground pool.

Just got the pool filled and pump on. I always have to worry about whirley birds filling up my skimmer basket, but now I don’t as much. A few things sneak around it but it collects so much more! Very happy! Now for the dog hair this summer…we shall see

Not a bad idea and it mostly works, but unless you have great surface movement it will be a disappointment.
