Atlantic Water Gardens PGPSM Pond and Garden Protector with Netting, 7-Feet by 9-Feet

The concept for this product is great, but the net is made of plastic which is very flimsy and brittle and not nylon, I’ll be lucky is it last 6 months in the FL humidity. Because of the quality of the net, this product is definitely not worth $94.00Update 1/23I was right net has holes all over, seems sun and normal winds just tears the flimsy net after a few months of use.

After the issues setting it up were resolve the netting structure fit perfectly over waterfall and pond. The clips that secure the netting are a bit of a hassle and after several on-off cycles failed to remain closed. A tie-wrap was used as a workable substitute. During recent storm a lot of leave were dropped by a nearby Japanese Maple. All were caught by the net and the wind blew them off the net proper and to the ground. As soon as we get some dry weather a leaf blower should clear the leaves on the ground near the net. Bottom line - it does what is was designed to do. Perfect!

Was a little to figure out how to put it together. Difficult to find the middle. Would be nice if it was marked. Finally got it together and works really well and fish a very visible and safe.

I bought the larger net for my Koi and goldfish pond 2 summers ago. It is absolutely great. I live in a rural suburban area and prior to purchashing this one I had all kinds of issues with other pond nets. Birds, cats, dogs, deer, wild animals and not to mention the weight of the heavy snow. In addition, in the past winter based on reading the reviews, I had expected this net to collapse from the weight of the snow. I have not any animal or snow issues in the past year. All 30 of my fish survived the winter with a couple of extra added. I agree it takes two people about an hour to put it together but I beleive if you take that extra assembly time up front it is better in the long run. I am planning to by a smaller net to start a small garden. The results are great and for a great price. I highly recommend this item to others.

I recently installed the Atlantic Water Gardens Pond cover. This is a great product. It is easy to assemble and the best thing is that I can see and enjoy my pond while it is on the pond! The reason for this purchase is a five foot tall blue heron that has FOUND my pond. I do not fear that he will enter the pond now to fish. If he gets in the net, I will have to go free him but my fish will be safe.

It’s not a “freestanding” product. It is meant to stake out and leave permanently. Not what we needed. It looked like something that could be placed and removed from the pond without a major effort. Not so. Nothing attaches the netting to the edges so I had to heavily modify it for our purposes. Netting is about 4x larger than the frame so I ended up doubling it, zip tying the netting to the edge material and still having to trim a lot of the netting. The frame itself is solid and well made. A rigid edge would be a great improvement. Maybe made out of shock cord poles like the rest of the frame?

It was a little tricky at first to put together. After a couple of tries, perfect. My pond has a water fall & is oddly shaped this worked great covered the entire area. I had a raccoon problem & a large tree in the back yard this took care of both problems. Keep the leaves & raccoons way from my turtles. Yes, I’d recommend it. Yes, if I needed another cover I’d buy it again.

This is the second pond net that I have bought. I love it. The net covers my pond well. Keeps the leave and critters out. Very sturdy. In the reviews I seen where someone has said it was “ugly”. I don’t think so. It does a wonderful and covering your pond to keep leaves and critters out isn’t going to be attractive. The pond net last about 4 years. For Being out in the elements 365 days a year, I think is good. So I highly recommend.

It doesn't fit and Atlantic Water Gardens are charging me to return the product as well as they will charge me for the original shipping charges. This is not acceptable! Amazon is not like this and perhaps Atlantic should have offered both sizes on Amazon. Extremely disappointing and an expensive return for me. I spend a lot with Amazon. In cases like this there should be a disclaimer so that the purchaser understands the cost to return.

This is a great product. It was very easy to assemble (just like a dome tent). The size is perfect for our pond and the extra large netting made it possible to stake the protector in the ground away from the water. We can take it off and on easily and sometimes leave it on for a few days, as it is not unattractive. Because of the dome our water plants have room to grow. The raccoon problem is solved. Highly recommend.

I set up this pond screen all by myself, and took it down before the snow fell all by myself. It was easy to do and very effective at keeping the leaves out of the pond. Wish I had ordered one 10 years ago!

keeps the leaves out of our pond and still looks good and we can feed our fish

Love it.. Does the job!Update... works great but birds get caught in it and small leaves fall through
