177 x 87 Rectangle Pool Cover Drawstring 14 ft - Heavy Duty Protection

In this review of the 177 x 87 Rectangle Pool Cover Drawstring 14 ft, the bottom line is simple: this is a practical, heavy duty cover for owners of 14 x 7 ft rectangular above-ground pools who want an easy-to-use way to keep debris and UV damage out of their water. The reviewer found the cover's combination of 210D oxford fabric, UPF50+ sun protection and the locking drawstring with 12 Velcro straps delivers reliable weather resistance and stability without complicated installation. If you value durability and straightforward daily handling, this cover deserves consideration.

Key Features

• Size compatibility: The 177 x 87 in dimensions fit 14 x 7 ft rectangular frames as well as similar 178 x 87 in pools, ensuring a snug surface fit for the intended pool sizes.
• Durable material: Built from 210D high-strength oxford fabric with double-stitched side seams, the cover resists tearing and rot for longer service life in outdoor conditions.
• Wind stability: A locking drawstring plus a 12-piece Velcro strap set improve stability and help the cover resist shifting during strong winds.
• Keeps pool clean: The cover blocks pollen, leaves, dust and rain, reducing how often the pool needs draining or cleaning and saving time for regular use.
• UV protection: UPF50+ rated fabric blocks roughly 98% of UV rays and resists fading, which helps the cover maintain color and performance over seasons.
• Easy storage: The cover folds compactly and includes a storage bag, making off-season or transport storage straightforward.

Who It's For

This cover is best for owners of above-ground rectangular pools close to 14 x 7 ft (177 x 87 in) who need a heavy-duty, reusable covering to reduce evaporation, keep debris out, and protect against sun damage. It also suits homeowners who prefer a cover that installs and removes without tools and who appreciate the extra stability of straps and a locking drawstring.

People with non-rectangular pools, significantly larger or smaller pools than the listed sizes, or who need a cover with integrated water drain features should look elsewhere. This model focuses on robust fabric and secure fit rather than specialized drainage or custom-fit shaping.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• UPF50+ fabric reduces UV damage and fading, lengthening usable life and protecting water temperature overnight.
• Compact folding and included storage bag simplify off-season storage.

Cons

• Designed specifically for rectangular frames near 177 x 87 in, so fit may be poor on very different pool sizes or shapes.
