Purchased and installed these recently. The product overall is great. Very easy to install and trim as needed when installing the last piece.Tip - Clean your pool walls with rubbing alcohol where the tape will make contact with the metal.. This will take any oil residue and dirt off the metal and give the tape a better bond.I did have an adhesion issue on 2 of the coves strips. I ended up just putting a piece of duct tape on each of those near the top portion that allowed it to be stuck to the wall until the liner was installed and I started to fill. The end result is a picture perfect cove that is durable. No way you could ever achieve this with sand. For those wondering, I ended up removing a full wheel barrow of sand from my pool ( 18' round replacement liner) that made up the old sand cove. I then spread some of the existing sand to the base of the foam cove to give a nice transition without any holes or gaps. Only reason for 4 stars instead of 5: they need to make the tape stronger for a better bond.
