Have a special needs kid that occasionally I'd like to keep in our shallow end of the pool. My idea was to find a net to weave my "safety" rope thru?What do you recommend

That's a great idea and this net would work perfect for that project. It's sturdy enough. Only suggestion it to buy the net a tad larger than the area you need to cover. Net sizes seem to run a little small.

This net is plenty strong for that.I can not pull it apart by hand. Not sure if your application is safe.

I have a fiberglass pool with concrete coping. The front roller will come to the coping and levitate there for a few seconds. It will then quit propelling and settle to the bottom. I also have a safety ledge half way in deep end, and has no problem. Excellent product.

Hi , What I do with my jump rope is put a mat under my feet if I am jumping on concrete. That solves it. If the concrete is smooth then no problem, but a mat is best. Hope this helps. MK

a pump/filter and a floater with chlorine are a must and is really all you need to keep it clean. a net helps for keeping out the larger debris that gets in the pool. :)

No. You can get it tight enough to play. However, you have to be creative when it comes to tightening net. There isn't a hook to wrap around on. You have to pull around pole at the top to get it tight enough.

I purchased a 9' x 18' retangular pool. You wil need to add 2' to each side minimum. I purchase a screen cover for my pool. It keeps all the insects and trash out. That is the key to low maintance.

Yes/no: how big and how strong a swimmer??? If you want to use an umbrella sleeve at the BOTTOM, then use bungees in the middle OR secure middle somehow.

The Summer Escapes Pro pool I had used a regular/standard garden hose. You may have to play with it a little, but it should be a standard hose size.

It would have to be pulled tight. The gague net is pretty thin but very durable. Seems like it might be a difficult task? I'm pretty sure they have std sizes and they may be big for your application, if you have to cut them it could be rather time consuming.

Just buy some heavy duty braided rope...like para cord, 50 or 100 ft. for just a few dollars, much better than a cheap plastic rope.Hope tis helps

I think it would be... honestly, all you do to fit it is cut off either side leaving the main rope etc. intact. Our pool is 15 feet across and it was too big to just wrap the excess around the poles so we cut it all off. Be very careful where you are cutting though, make sure you don't cut the very side pieces off or any of the "tackle" that holds the net tight.

There is a nylon cord that is sewn in around the perimeter similar to a hooded sweatshirt. On our pool, we've tied it once when we first put it on and ever since then we've just stretched it on and off. hasn't budged so far. Note, that keeping a couple of those cheap foam noodles underneath it when it is on is a big help.

I've purchased Hampton Products-Keeper 06345 8" Bungee Cords with plastic toggle balls and they work great, but last time we tried 100 Pack 12" Nylon Cable Zip Ties Self Locking 5mm and they are amazing and weather proof! You can actually make the net tighter or direct the return but how many, how tight, or how close together you assemble the zip ties. Good Luck!

We ordered bungee cords made specifically to secure the net and make it springier. The original net came with them, too. I ordered them through Amazon. They work very well and our grandsons were thrilled.

Morning Branton, In my opinion, if the pool is solid like a SPA, I would use the mat because it helps add support and structure. If the pool is thin in consruction the the cloth would be a better repair. In my experiances the mat is for strength and the cloth is for appearance.

They give you a pole with it which is just a perfect size for my tiny dog pond (which is a 14 foot round blue baby pool insertedinto the ground. A regular pool pole would be very heavy for the little net you buy with the mini jet vacuum.

I would follow the suggestion regarding the clear gorilla tape. That's the best stuff I've ever ran across.It patched the kids pool when nothing else worked. Best of luck.
