GOOX 8×8 ft Pool Pillow
Large pools — but read the tail — Four times the area of a standard 4×4 pillow, for pools big enough that one small pillow leaves the cover sagging at the edges. 4.4★ across 122 on a clean base. The catch is the material: 0.4 mm PVC, thinner than the 0.5 mm POOLHACKER that costs less than half as much.

Pros
- The size answer — 8×8 ft holds a cover up across a span two 4×4 pillows would leave sagging between them
- Clean single-model base at 4.4★ across 122
- Sealed valve that takes a blower, which is the practical way to fill something this big
Cons
- The worst critical tail of any pillow here: 6 of the 7 critical cards are leaks, bursts or mid-winter deflation, including one that "didn't last a day"
- 0.4 mm PVC is THINNER than the POOLHACKER 0.5 mm at two and a half times the price, and one owner reports a small falling branch bursting it under an intact cover
- 122 ratings is the shallowest base we card here — the 4.4★ average sits on a tail that does not support it
The worst tail of the five, and it is air loss plus fragility. "Only after the first frost did the cushion leak", from an owner who blames the valve; "one having a leak fresh out of the package"; "Broke 2 weeks after putting in pool, as soon as ice started to form"; "Didn't make it through the winter. Not only did it deflate towards the end of the season, but it took in water"; "did not make even half way through winter"; and "The pillow didn't last a day before it was flat." One owner reports a small falling tree branch bursting it under an intact cover — "the pool cover is intact but the pillow exploded under the cover" — which for 0.4 mm material is the thinness showing.
