Did some research and found this pad. This pad is thick, appears to be verry durable and very easy to install. We smoothed out the sand and laid this over it. We installed new liner and it worked perfectly. A definite plus to our pool liner foundation. A good value. Review: Great product, 12' pool fit and easy to use. - Normally, I would just set the pool on the cement. But this is a great product. This product was like very heavy felt, and I am sure that with a little TLC, it will last for years. It kind of stuck to the cement area I was covering, so I had to do some stretching and move the edges up and down to get some air under it as I positioned it. Very easy for one person but my wife helped me. I have a 12' round pool and I have 2"-4" of this showing around the whole pool. The posts are all sitting on the liner as well. Two very good things it provided. 1) It will keep any little grains of sand or rock from loosening and causing a hole. 2) It gave me a totally clean area to lay out the pool. I will definitely use it every year and feel much more comfortable about no holed in the bottom of the pool. Thanks for providing a great product. ## Features - Ground Shield Protects Your Pool Liner: This 24-foot round, heavy-dut, extra-thick pool liner pad safeguards your above-ground pool liner from punctures, tears, abrasions, and rips caused by rocks, roots, glass, and other sharp objects.
