What Customers Are Saying
The pool skimmer net has mixed reviews, with some praising its large capacity, wide mouth, and effectiveness in collecting leaves and debris, while others criticize its lack of durability. Many customers report the plastic frame and net material tend to break or tear after relatively short periods of use, even with normal handling. The net is described as performing well in skimming and scooping up pool debris, but the lack of long-term durability is a significant drawback for many users.

Would RecommendI bought a skimmer at the begininng of Summer. The sleeve broke. I contacted AquaEZ, a lady named Linsdey, very helpful. I asked if I could get just a new sleeve. AquaEZ was going to send me a new skimmer. Great company.
Don't waste your money like I did!
Would Not RecommendLooks like it would work, but this leaf skimmer is the worst I've ever used. Just goes right over the top of anything on the bottom of the pool. Threw it in the trash.
Skimmer not effective
Would Not RecommendI bought this skimmer as a replacement for my old one which had a hole in the netting. This particular one is just too bulky and does not pick up all the debris next to the walls or bottom of the pool. After 3 months it broke at the connector. Having a pool and using skimmers for decades, this has never happened to me. Returned for less than what I paid and the price was lowered. Not worth any price.
Effective
Would RecommendThis was half the price of some other skimmers but is sturdy and does the job perfectly.

No!
Would Not RecommendI got this net and used it maybe 2 times and the plastic broke! I even tried to glue it and it broke again. Do not buy! Cheap plastic!
Worked great, for a very short time.
Would Not RecommendPicked it up this afternoon, broke after using less than an hour after I got home and started cleaning the pool. Cleaned up a good amount of debris before it cracked though.
Plastic breaks too easily!!!
Would Not RecommendTHought my first one was a fluke breaking so easily but nope. Now I see the reviews. GREAT if you have tons of $ to spend but it doesn't last.
cheaply made, bad plastic
Would Not RecommendBought this a few months ago to replace the same one from last summer and it did great the first few weeks. but i noticed i may want to be careful of how much leaves and junk i scoope up in it. and yep it broke! this is the second one ive bought in a year. wont be getting another. I will search the internet for a better quality made product.
Cheap product. Breaks easily
Would Not RecommendThis pool rake broke literally within the first 10 minutes of use. It's made out of cheap plastic, not nearly sturdy enough to hold its bag half full of leaves. I ordered an aluminum pool rake, which I should have done in the first place.
Not durable
Would Not RecommendAs a net for removing large quantities of debris from the pool, this product works very well. However, the plastic from which the frame is made is not durable. My frame cracked in two places in less than one season of use. I suspect the pool chlorine and sunlight exposure embrittled the plastic.
Best $14 I ever spent
Would RecommendHaving a pool and living next to a person with 2 huge maple trees creates quite a mess in the spring. While at Lowes I noticed this skimmer and on a whim bought it. I liked the basket style net to clean the surface of the pool, but that was nothing compared to how well it pulled stuff off the floor of my pool! Throw this thing in the water and let it sink to the bottom. Once resting on the bottom get a good angle and gently push it across the floor. The angled design of the frame scoops everythi...
This a replacement for the one that broke
Would Not RecommendBought the same product last fall, and it broke this year. It works fine, but needs to be a better quality so that it will last more than one year.
