We decided to leave the bar lifter from the old foam cover in place for now. Space limitations on our deck do not leave us much space to flop the SpaCap. And we have a neighbor close by. Draping the SpaCap over our lifter bar provides a good place to store the cover and provides more privacy. The cap removal is also that much easier with the lifter.

Thanks to the SpaCap people again for what appears at start to be an excellent product. My wife (two hernia surgeries) loves the light weight.

The SpaCap is everything we expected and we got are quite satisfied with the service. We highly recommend this product.
