They heat better than the 12 ml solar cover
The Solar rings do exactly what it is stated. Do they heat better than the 12 ml solar cover - most definitely! Put your hand under the rings and the water is warm or hot. Do that with the solar cover and barely warm. However for an 18' diameter pool I needed 10 rings. I found I did need a tire pump to inflate them. The last 11 years 1 have spent $150 every 3 years to 4 years for a 12 ml. solar cover which disintegrates after 3 or 4 years. Along with the solar cover I have two solar heaters and at night I covered it with the winter blanket. We would lose 6 degrees every night and then take all day to regain it. Now with the solar rings I'm not putting the winter blanket on at night. We lose 1 to 2 degrees overnight. I'm not turning the filter and solar heaters on until 11 am and on a cloudy day not at all. Before with the cover the filter and heaters were turned on at 7 am. I recommend them. Hope they last more than 3 to 4 years. I'm in the Pacific NW.

not worth the effort
they don't seem to raise the water temp very much. they blow around in the wind, folding over, on top of each other, and even out of the pool. i have to remove them before the pool guy comes each week. having them in the pool felt like a chore instead of a help. they would probably work better in the warmer weather. i live in S. florida, so 'cold' here for me is 60's.

Waste of money
Arrived with half the rings leaking. Contacted customer service and they want you to cut the air valve off and send back to them on your dime. These are very cheap and possibly one of the modern century greatest rip offs

Looking good and doing there job well...
Very Nice. Much larger then expected. A bit tricky to inflate properly but once you get it they work well and look good. These have magnets which keep them together. Just for reference, I live in South Florida and my pool is fully screened in...so far so good. Happy with purchase.

Works well!
My only complaint is that some of them do not last that long. Ones we bought last year, would not hold the air this year; so we ordered this pack of 6 as replacements. Otherwise, they work wonderfully. Keeps the pool warm. Easy to move and clear a little section if only going in the pool for a little dip or take all of them out to clear the pool completely.

They work
I bought these due to having to replace a solar heater on the roof. They have worked in our area of central valley CA lots of sun. They didnt quite look like the pictures when blown up. you need to keep the pressure very light but they do work. Overall I am happy with the product.

seems to work pretty well but ignore the 2 breath thing for the inner ring
we ordered the 10 pack and it raised the temp maybe 5-6 degrees we otherwise would not have seen. Surface area covered is about 80% as it's an odd shaped pool. Magnets work pretty well; these things find each other which is pretty cool. Make sure you use a portable pool type air pump that has multiple valves since we wound up using the smallest. Without a pump it will take forever especially for the outer ring. I inflated the inner ring for about 15 seconds which puts in enough air, otherwise you're basically adding nothing air volume wise.

Mixed bag
The sun rings are more attractive and easier to handle than a solar cover, however less effective. Easy to inflate, but very fragile towards punctures. One of six rings I ordered deflated almost immediately and all of them need some re-inflation once in a while.
