The canopia pool cover is very restrictive.

The front panel cannot be taken off without wrestling with the aluminiumn profiles and we needed quite a bit of force.

This means the front panel cuts your pool area down by a fair bit, and the hassle taking the front panel off is very off putting as you have a major struggle getting it back on.

I wondered why the videos showed the full assembly WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE FRONT AND REAR PANELS - AND NOW I KNOW

MY request to resolve this was never answered.
