WE bought this in great anticipation but we are finding it hard to work with. WE are still trying and won't give up .
The parachute skimmer tends to be able to hold more material than is easily hauled out. I suggest taking smaller 'bites' which will make it easier to use

Pond skimmer
A great alternative to investing in skimmer pumps to remove duckweed from the pond!

Didn't work as well as we'd hoped
So far spent 2 1/2 hours skimming the pond. Fished out all the little brim and tadpoles before I dumped algae. Didn't make a dent in the algae. May try again after some cleaning of grass but...disappointed.

Parachute skimmer
Works good. Throw it out and pull it in the direction you want it to go. It beats using a rake which I was doing before.

Skimmer skims sideways
The skimmer seems to like sliding sideways, letting a lot of lake weed escape.
