Yay, warm water at last!
By Kimberly E. Beall
Our pool is in shade most of the morning, so the water temperature used to seldom get above 80F, and even that on only a few of the hottest days of the year. That's not really comfortable for quiet lounging with a book, though to justify the cost of the pool I would force myself to do so anyway :)Putting this cover on has made all the difference! The water is regularly over 86F now and it's not even July yet. Even my husband, who had only used the pool like three times since we bought it, gets in with me now.The main thing it does is prevent losing heat overnight. It used to be that the pool was only ever warm on days that followed very hot nights. Now that we are leaving this cover on over night, the water that gets warm during the day, stays warm, so that by the time the sun hits the pool the next day, it adds to the temperature instead of just replacing lost heat again.The material really is very sturdy - not your average bubble wrap, but much thicker, and also a pleasing shade of blue. It sticks to the surface of the water like a suction-cup in a wind-storm (we've had several since we bought it) but rain doesn't accumulate on top and sink it. I was also pleased to find that cutting the material to fit around the pool steps does not void the warranty.Our pool has very good circulation, so the temperature is even from the surface to the bottom. I have had no problem with running the pump with the cover on - it doesn't get sucked into the skimmer or anything like that. One thing I was concerned about was that the chlorine floater would not be able to move around, and that a buildup of chlorine in one spot would damage the liner, but when the pump is running the chlorine floater bobs about all around underneath it just as it would without the cover, so that's good, too!The only drawback is that this cover - we have the 21' round - is pretty heavy, and is very hard for just one person to put on or remove unless they actually get inside the pool to do it. But since I'm usually removing it so that I can get into the pool, it's not really that big an inconvenience.

bubble cover
By BbGdrch
This is an excellent product. If you let it lie in the water the water tension holds it down so you don't have to deal with the wind blowing it away. I have tried many covers and this is the only one that works in windy conditions. It does keep out leaves and most bugs. It is easy to remove and replace.

Perfect as far as i can tell
By cheaptechie
I bought this for a 15ft round intex pool that I have in El Paso, Tx. With this baby on there and the pump circulating the water the whole pool shot up to over 90degrees. My kids definately don't complain about it being cold anymore. It also cut my chlorine consumption drastically so be prepared for that. (after trial and error I am down to 1 floating tablet as opposed to the the 3 that I had to use without it. I highly recommend this product. Also, it seems really durable. I haven't had any problem at all in that regard.

The Passageway to LOADS of fun!
By History_of_Art_Geek
My son received the Mountain Tunnel Set as an introduction to the Thomas & Friends line, and as the Mountain Tunnel is the focus of the set, it's been a favorite piece. Since that time, William's received other destinations that he's built into the set, yet for months he preferred that the tunnel remain on the table. Now that we've added an Expansion Pack to his railway set, the Mountain Tunnel has taken a backseat to some of the other bridges, and destinations.As I mentioned in my review of the set, the track will fall off the Ascending Track Risers. I was able to rectify this situation by placing a small piece of satin finish giftwrap tape under the track, so it would adhere to the risers. Now, anytime we layout the set with the Ascending Track I make sure the tape is ready, and waiting.The tunnel is a fun piece to add to any set, but I warn any potential buyers that it is BIG. Measure your available space before purchasing. Also, in order for the railway cars to reach the second level of play one must possess a pair of Ascending Tracks. In addition, the Ascending Track Risers, which support the track, are recommended as well. These are certainly worthwhile pieces of track as we've built other bridges with both, but it does add up if you don't happen to own the track items.The overall quality of the Thomas & Friends products is excellent, and the Mountain Tunnel is no exception. If you have a builder in your midst, it's certainly worth the money in my view.

Dissapointing
By M. Bennett
While the mountain is a nice centerpiece to a train layout. It is a little impractical since it is hard to layout track going through the middle level that doesnt interfere with track going in the bottom level. Also the middle level uses these little plastic tabs to support the track which have very quickly gotten bent/stretched so that the middle level supports dont work well anymore. This makes track connected to the middle level a little too low and results in trains getting stuck while going through the lower level. I am dissapointed in the quality of this item from learning curve. It needed to be a little taller so that trains could get through the bottom level without getting stuck and they should have had better support tabs for the middle level and you should be able to connect the two large sides together without the middle section. I would recommend looking around for the hill and mountain expansion set instead of this if you want mountains in your layout.

Really fun but hard to use in layouts
By Jamie R. Vislocky
The mountain tunnel is a very fun piece - it has three levels (which I don't think any other thomas piece does). It is definitely a layout "centerpiece" in that it is the biggest, most central part of the set-up.The problem I have is that it's a little TOO hard to use in layouts. Of course, there are some pre-fabricated ones that look lovely and are loads of fun for the kids, but trying to use the mountain and incorporate other destinations one has is a bit difficult - especially if you are trying to get the layout to fit on a table.Another reason I took some stars off was because if you take out the center middle piece, you can't connect the two mountain sides. That would have made this piece a bit more usable because you wouldn't have had to cover six entrances and exits!I bought this for my two year old for his birthday, and although it makes ocassional apperances on the table, he usually just ends up playing with it by itself on the floor.

Multi-use
By Deniece A. Dowleyne
Love this fun rocker/bench. My 4 and [...] old have a blast. You need to have kids with the same weight though for the rocker to be balanced. My 4 yr old and her 4 yr old cousin love it. My kids use the bench for meals, snacks, craft time and for their tea parties. Initially my [...] old fell backwards trying to stand up,(good thing their playroom has foam flooring), but now she understands how to get on and off of the bench and has not had any other occurances.

GREAT! Kids love it!
By C. Gee
This is such a great bench! My kids LOVE to be able to sit at it. My 2 year old is LOVING it. It was super easy to put together. It seems very durable too. It's heavy duty, but light weight enough to flip easily. My 2 year old is a little scared to sit on the bench seats and rock, but loves to sit on the under side of the table and let me rock him. He LOVES it. they play hide and seek under the table, color, eat etc all with this. I wished I'd had it earlier when my 11 year old was little.
