Really grea
This above ground pool has been great. It fits loads of people, has built in support to hook up a pump to, is easy to drain. I would highly recommend to buy with a pump and a chlorine dispenser as the pool is big enough where you have to care about the cleanliness of the water. Was pretty easy to construct and was overall a great purchase.
This is the second year using this pool, stored all winter in the shed, use Vaseline on pipework where it fits through loops in the pool so it comes apart easily, coat in talc for storage so it wont stick to itself, bish bash bosh, a pool for life, oversize the pump though, defo oversize the filter pump, badabish , badabosh.
This is my second (not because of quality)
My little darlings threw assorts in it in winter (bless ’em).
Easy to assemble (just don’t think pokes go same direction alphabetically each side ).
We have had three five year olds and a twelve year old and enough room to play in.
Buy a pump and cotton filter balls less expensive.
Outside is tough. My dog often jumps on side and hasn’t ripped.
Get a black cover.
Empty valve at bottom of pool.
Adults don’t expect to breast stroke.
As I said this is my second exact same.
Great pool! Easy to put together (took me and my other half 25mins – including bickering ) didn’t take too long to fill, looks great (apart from messy tubes from filter etc) seems sturdy enough to withstand boisterous kids so far bought this year so obviously haven’t tackled packing it away again yet but so far impressed and would recommend. Filter, heater and cover bought separately – but easy enough to find ones that fit, bring on the summer!
Absolutely great purchase. Easy to assemble. Built in 20 mins with only briefly looking at instructions. Quick delivery. Very well packaged. Quite sturdy and strong. Kids having great fun. Hoping for continued sunshine to enjoy some more.
This took 30 minutes to build and is filling up, I regret buying it without a pump but i can always buy a pump another time, I we bought one last year but due to lack of cleaning it got mossy, won’t make the same mistake and will definitely purchase again if this one brakes
Fantastic quality 3m x 2m pool. No problems setting up, perfect size for our garden. I’ve bought a pool ladder to help my 7 year old get in and out easily. I also purchased the Intex 1000 GPH pump and it filters the water beautifully – I highly recommend that for this pool, also the intex 3 x 2 cover is fab! To keep it clean I use clearwater multifunction chlorine tablets in a floater and our water is absolutely crystal clear (I use 2 at a time). I thought it would be useful to mention these things to help anyone buying this pool know what additional things they may require. Enjoy!
Perfect except plug hole to high
I love the pool for sturdiness and durability, the only downside is it’s very difficult to empty as the plug hole is about 1/6 above the ground so your left with quite a lot of water that you have to physically tip the pool up to pour the rest of the water out. That was the only problem everything else about this pool is perfect.
Good Value for your money!
This pool is good value for money, it’s easy to assemble and very sturdy.
The reason that I have given this product four stars and not five is because when it comes to emptying the pool the plug is two inches from the bottom of the pool which makes it difficult to get the last drops of water out which is a pain.
All in all a great pool
Perfect for the hot days
Love this pool; easy to put up when by yourself . I can swim from one side to then other ( 4 strokes) . Right height for children. It has been up since mid July, I do vac and skim it every day, and use a chemical floater.
I am hoping this last a few years. I will be taking it down mid September and storing correctly .
1st pic is today 16/8 2nd pic is July 19th .
Fingers crossed for next year: I will update review next year as well.
I purchased this for my daughter as we started to get the hot weather come in. It was easy to put together but once letting the water out (I know many would buy a filter but I just don’t have one) the plug that let’s it out is not all the way at the bottom. So when no more water is coming out of the plug, it means you have to tip the pool over to get the rest out. The plug, ideally should be built into the bottom not onto the side and about 7 inches from the bottom.
Also the poles for the frame. Were very quick to set up. However, one side as now started to bow a little. My daughter doesn’t sit on the side either. I don’t know how this has happened but either way, the poles should not even be bending a little. They should be sturdy.
Other than those two issues the pool is great and my daughter enjoys i
Really love this so easy to set up kids have hours of fun excellent value for money xx
Lovely easy set up any pump fits this so we didn’t have to buy another one much better value than the blow up swimming pools kids love it hours of fun x
Great price / prime day
Took 30 minutes to put together/ very easy .
Younger me 15 minute.
Sturdy /good quality.
Just set up, looks fab. Got solar heat mat & filter so hope makes it last more for the kids
Just set it up on my own and was relatively easy, seems to be a good rigid pool, large enough capacity but not too big as rectangular, got filter and solar heating mat too so hope it helps it last for the kids not getting too cold
3m x 2m pool. Very easy to assemble. Took two adults about 20 minutes but no reason why one adult can’t do it.
Will take about 4 hours at least to fill up. Bear in mind the weight when full is almost 4 tonnes (1000 litres of water weighs 1000kg and this is almost a 4000 litre pool) so ensure sturdy ground underneath. We’ve erected it on raised decking but underneath is solid brick work. Make sure your ground is completely flat to avoid too much pressure against one side.of the pool if the water isn’t level.
Glad to see there’s a hose inlet valve so you can connect your hose and leave it.
Slight bowing of the 3m side bars which is visible in the picture (and it’s only about half full at the time) but it does feel structuely sound regardless.
Only had it for a few hours and really impressed so far. Kids already playing in it as it fills up and having loads of fun. Standard plastic garden slides make a good pool slide.
Impressed
As another to 5 wild children, this has held up to the 5 year old birthday pool party, may u add also surviving the added extra teens bombarding along with the pre teens. It’s held its ground, survived the pool party and ready for the next British sunny day for the family to enjoy. This poor pool didn’t sign up for the abuse we have battered with,.so we’ll done pool…we had no flooding of the street or crying children…highly recommend to any household looking to purchase a pool for the family and extended family aka.street kids.
The pool is relatively easy to assemble, it needs to sit on level ground and its worth keeping an eye on the legs to make sure they’re popped out as it’s filling.
However a part was broken and I didn’t discover this until the last minute. Amazon were useless and refused to replace the part unless I boxed the entire thing back up (we all know stuff never fits back in the box) and take it somewhere to be sent back which I had to pay upfront, which i then had to wait for them to process it and send a refund to order another. It was way too big and heavy for me to do that without transport. They wouldn’t arrange postage or collection and offered me 21 instead which was useless.
Thankfully Intex were much more helpful and replaced the part for me which really saved my bacon.
So thanks for being fudging useless amazon.
Hoping it lasts
We opted for this pool instead of a blow up one, as they don’t ever seem to last! So hoping we can use this one next year as well.
Great pool.
Easy to assemble, the instructions weren’t perfect but I managed to put it up without much trouble. The material is durable and very strong, also I like the design as it makes it look alot better. The only down side really is the drain hole isn’t at the bottom, it’s slightly raised from the floor and leaves about 20cm depth of water so to completely empty it you have to use a bucket, otherwise I would give 5 stars. The kids loved it though and I would definitely recommend it anyone.
Excelle
Bought this pool last summer and has been in the shed since the cold weather came in. Just got it out now set it all up and all good. Perfect working order and kidd are back in it. The only thing I would suggest, which I didn’t do last year was put some talc on the poles before sliding them through the pool. This will make sure they come out nicely when you come to break it down. Last year the pool had practically melted to the poles and it was a nightmare to get them out again.
Great purchase!
Great purchase! Lovely good size pool that LO can actually do a few strokes in. Quite sturdy and beautiful inside when full of water. Water pump had to be purchased separately- only neg.
Grea
Had it out all summer long. Easy to construct and then take down again.
Used foam maps underneath to ensure it did not get pierced.
If your using it in the UK I recommend a heater and powerful filter.
Fantastic pool, great size
Great quality pool. Easy to assemble, clean and put away.
Best 4 x 3M pool ever!
I bought this pool so I could ‘tether-swim’ in my own back garden. I used to swim at my local pool but due to Covid no longer thought it safe. My only regret is that I didn’t buy it earlier in the summer. Highly recommended!
Great great pool
Best pool ever, sturdy deep easy to keep clean great buy would highly recommend
Sturdiness
Within 2 weeks, one of the plastic cups that hold one of the vertical poles had cracked open. The pool was erected properly and was as it should be. Not overfilled or anything else wrong. There was no reason this should’ve happened. Pool is easy enough to assemble and a great size but found this disappointing especially as it’s not a cheap one
Loved i
Kids loved it easy to put up and tack down u can site on the corners all in all lovely pool
Excellent pool
Have had pool quite awhile now and excellent. Very happy with quality and would buy again when needed
Great pool
Had a larger intex pool before so knew what I should be getting. Not disappointed at all. Easy to put together, looks great and is very sturdy when filled. Kids love it. I’ve hooked mine up to a filter and heater to make the water quality better and warmer but the kids play for hours in it.
Just what the Doctor ordered
Excellent it was just the right size to relax i
We have it set up for the past 3 months nothing happened to it. Its amazing just make sure you get the cover to keep the water clean as its imposible to empty thw water after every use so try to keep the water clean.
We also got the chlorin as well and we put the tablet in thw pool after every use.
Brilliant!
Great pool, my daughter absolutely loves it, almost big enough to swim kn. It was very easy to assemble and disassemble. Value for money A+
Godsend
We had an inflatable pool before which never dries when emptied due to folds. This one is great. You need a filter and chlorine.

Great strong pool
Lovely pool my kids love it wish it was even bigge
Great garden pool, loads of fu
Would have been 5 stars but it was delivered a day later than advertised so we missed a scorching day of garden fun.
Assembly is pretty easy. All the poles are labelled and just slot together. They all have another smaller pole inside which need removing to be used for the outer support poles. Lay the plastic pool out flat to begin with and then surround it with the poles in the order instructed. Make sure that any pole with a pre drilled hole has the hole at the end near a corner. These holes are needed to secure the corner attachments.
No tools are required, no strength and can be put up by one person.
I have 2 9 year olds who have lived in it this last fortnight. A great investment is some goggles so they can go exploring!
Took about 4 and a half hours to fill from a regular flow hose.
We love ours and the garden would be a lot less visited without it.

Easy to assemble.
The pool is easy to assemble & instructions are clear, with a diagram. I did it together with my 11 year old. The pool is durable and looks great when filled. I love the mosaic design makes it feel like you’re on holiday. It’s already been put to good use in the hot spell we’ve had. Well worth it. We love it!
Brilliant.
Have had this pool for years now and it’s still standing strong. Brilliant pool for a small family.
Fab pool. Sturdy and easy to assemble
Fantastic pool. We don’t have the flattest of gardens and this is the first pool where we’ve not had sloping to one side.
Very sturdy for kids and adults alike
Easy to assemble
Really easy to assemble just follow the instructions. Nice size, fits 6 10year olds comfortably. Good quality. Filter and cover is a must have, too much water to change.
Super purchase - 4th Summer and still going strong
Our children (and us parents) have had so much fun with this pool. Would have given 5 starts for assembly had the stickers labelling the frame lasted slightly longer.
Great pool
Great pool when bought at the right time I would not pay the summer prices but love that it’s rectangular and very much worth it when paying less than 100for it.
Fantastic pool!!!!!!! BEWARE OF CUSTOMS FEES
Brilliant pool! Absolutely love it! Really sturdy & good quality no problems with the pool at all.
However as it was advertised on Amazon U.K. I thought it would come from the U.K. it took a long while to get her from Germany & I had to pay an extra 73 in customs fees.
Solid top quality easy assemble .
I LOVE this pool it’s awesome easy to put up its sturdy and I can float in it . Woop woop
Perfect size pool and great value
Fabulous. Just the right size for summers in the garden with my grandson and family. Any bigger and it would be too much effort to keep clean and warm.
I bought a pump, heater and cover. All are essential. The heater I put on if the pool is going to be used that day to give it a kick start in the morning but when the sun comes out you can turn it off.
Just go for i
This pool is huge! I can’t say anything for it’s longevity as I’ve only had it for a few months but it’s already been worth the money. Good depth and could easily fit 8 adults in it. Can even get a good two breast strokes in each length. If you’re debating buying it, honestly just go for it.
Brill size
Easy to set up, was weiry after reading some complain. I set up by myself early pregnant lol Brilliant size, my kids love it, big floatys in there for extra fu
Perfect size for the entire family
Very good quality, perfect for the whole family. I managed to set this up by myself and ‘m disabled so if you need to,it’s easy enough done by oneself
Great buy
My kids have been asking for a while for a big pool they can actually swim in. I saw this one and after reading the reviews decided to get it, best decision I made my kids love it and there is enough room for the 3 of them. We built a surround around it so the dog did not rip it as he lives going in the pool to.
great buy
I purchased before the summer so bought for 80 , husband and his friend installed it, took maybe a hour, 4 hours to fill. keeps the water warm, only down side is where the drain button is, its rather high up
Kids love it!!
Really easy to set up and 2 and half hours to fill water still going strong 3 weeks later with chlorine and pump
Good value for money.
Perfect size for kids. Good material and easy to set up.
Very pleased with pool
I bought this pool in the spring and spent a couple of weeks building an enclosure for it. It’s not quite finished as waiting for delivery of more support wood and decking lengths to finish rim around edges. It’s up enough to use for family today as its hottest day of the year so far. We made sure the ground was very level then took all stones and gravel out. We then put a layer of strong thick weed suppressant and then two thickest tarpaulins under the pool to make sure no snags. This way there’s no chance of ripping liner on small stones/gravel. Pool was easy to assemble within enclosure as we built it 360 cms by 260 cms to accommodate splayed legs. We have made sure enclosure will accommodate any other pool when this one dies. We are happy with strength but marked one star off for durability as within days the pattern on the bottom faded without anyone in it but don’t know if that was with the pool chemicals.
Excelle
Excellent pool great size and big enough for and 8 year old to swim.
I would suggest a complete flat surface and took around 6 hours to fill.
Very sturdy glad we took the plunge.

Perfec
I brought this at Christmas when it was on offer. I was a little nervous storing it until now but im over the moon with it. It did take around 7 hours to fill but definitely worth it. Today is the first day of using so will update if i need to. I did however buy a filter pump for it (was easy to do) My neighbours helped me put it up just make sure you straighten it out fully and pop the parts in to block it. Fingers crossed this is be a great buy!! I will store this in a tub big enough in the garage not to sure of getting it to fit in the original box

Sturdy, easy to assemble
1st time pool user, all parts were included and easy to assemble. You could do it on your own but would be tricky.
I was worried there were no filter ports but they are on the side of the pool.
We have a dog and a toddler and seems sturdy enough to the wrath.
The pool is .76cm high so it’s a big step over for me 5’9 but my toddler (2.5 years old) can stand at chest height once in.
Looks good and I’m hoping it wears well. (Follow the instructions and talc the poles!)
Good pool, but you will need a heater.
This is a good sturdy pool and looks amazing, but you will need a heater for it if you want it to be useable. 3 kids. 2 used it twice and 1 used it every day the sun shone. Solar cover helped a bit. It is big! By the time you buy all the bits you need it becomes quite pricey. We just resold ours and got most of our money back on it so no loss.
⭐️Fantastic pool bigger than expected⭐️
Was a lot bigger and deeper than expected! All the poles look daunting as you pull them all out the box but was very easy to assemble.
Delivery wasn’t too bad took 2 weeks to come.
Just in time for this sunny bank holiday!
4 very happy kids!
Would definitely recommend!
Thank you
Perfect for big family
Built it today alm on my own now 30mins later I’m filling it up bigger than my last one
Pool
Swimming pool not been set up as yet due to the weather. Arrived before due date and I was kept informed of tracking at all times
Love this!
So easy to put up, has inlets/outlet points for pumps that are easy to plug if not needed.. really brilliant value and perfect for tethered swimming
Great pool
Brilliant pool alot bigger than I expected. Only thing that I’m annoyed about is the price has been reduced by 30 pounds since I purchased it!
All good!
Easy to construct, and big enough to have a little swim ( sort of). It was delivered before the promised date which was within two weeks. The support corners double up as a wine stand! V pleased!
I bought this pool in 2018. It was easy to put up and we used foam tiles underneath because it was on the patio. I treated it like my aquarium, regular part water change and chlorine checks. Clean the filter every week. Hoover it with a nifty pool vac that fits on the hosepipe. The first and second winters i left it full, put the cover on and it was fine. In spring did a complete water change and refill. That is the only time it had complete water change. It punctured in a couple of places and gorilla underwater tape fixed it. Last winter I emptied it, thinking we might move it in spring. Bad idea! Checking it out today and it has a rip and another puncture. The water that collected in the bottom froze and the kids thought it was fun to play with the ice. If I had left it full we could have moved it when we emptied it for the new season. Shallow water freezes, the full pool didn’t. The kids loved it and spent the whole lockdown summer in that pool, rain and shine! Today it was taken down and another is ordered. It is just a shame that we couldn’t buy the liner on it’s own. The poles are still good and strong. The old pool has been cut so the bottom will be under the new one for added protection. The boys are really excited to be getting a new one, they were really sad when we had to scrap the old one. Top tip…. leave it filled over winter!

Study pool, value for money
On first assembly some of the poles were tricky to get through the liner so waxed them which made it easier. I I assembled this on my own in bout half hour. Easy to disassemble and fold up for storing.
Sturdy long lasting
Great pool 3 years and still like new kids love it and adults too easy to put up with 2 people as well as take down to put away for the next summer this pool is much bigger and sturdier then the blow up type good investment for entertainment in summer for the kids
Fantastic
After wasting money on plastic pools that just pop this was the best thing I have bought in years. So easy to put together and great value for money. Im sure this will last for years
Brilliant value for money
Bought this pool during lockdown. It has been emptied and put away around 6 times. It’s still in brilliant condition. Very sturdy, has had 9 kids in it at one point.
Brilliant purchase
Bought this early spring my children loved it and had great use from it. Children are 10,13 & 15. Wondered if it would be big enough, it was fir all three. If you are thinking of buying don’t hesitate but make sure you definitely get all the maintenance kit,, pump, filter and chlorine tablets and do maintai
Swim to your heart's content....
You might have to adapt your freestyle technique slightly to cope with a 60 cm water depth – particularly if you are used to using a deep pull – but I’ve swum happily with a ankle resistance tether in this pool happily and I’m 6 foot.
Pool
Easy to assemble and was great for the use of lentils and sand for sensory needs for a child. Easy to fill and empty. Very pleased. I’ve ordered a second one for my Daughter.
Great pool, highly recommend!
So glad we got this pool, it’s been used for six months now. I definitely recommend putting foam matting under it before you assemble as it makes the pool nicer to walk on, and none of the dirty has gaps to settle in (if you have it on a patio). Only down side is that the pattern has worn off where the steps have rubbed, but to be fair the children have been in and out of the pool a lot, and have also been Justin’s in from the steps. I would also recommend getting steps as it makes it easier for everyone to get in.
Lock down best buy.
Such an amazing find. We got this because the blow up ones never last and 4 children needed more space. Lock down has been a great joy because of this pool. It’s high enough so the small children can’t surprise you with getting in without permission and it’s big enough to fit 2 ridiculously large floats in. I highly recommend this pool.
Definitely worth buying!
Best thing we have bought in lockdown.. kids have been in it constantly, bought a filter, heater and solar cover for it and it is so warm, my 6 year old can actually swim in it as can my 10 year old, we have all been in it even the dog. It’s been up for weeks now and very sturdy.
Excellent choice and size
Bought before lockdown at a good price, ground needs to be level. Some reviews state the frame has started to rust this has not happened for me? I have had the pool up filled and in use all through lockdown. The pool in long and deep enough to be used with a bungee swimming cord by teenagers and tall adults.
This is year 2 of the pool and its holding up well.
First off, we got this for a really good price last Summer. We went for just the pool itself as a couple of years before we got one of the circular ones with the inflatable top and that came with a basic filter but this was pretty poor. This time around, a lot of chlorine, manual skimming and occasional use of the pond vac to clean the floor and sides and do a bit of filtering! We’ve had to empty and refill once so far as it did sit neglected for a couple of weeks, so that was our fault.
Pool is a good size for kids. I can sort of swim in it but do bang my knees on the bottom! Seems pretty sturdy and we have now assembled, taken apart, and re-assembled with no issues. We did find a small hole in the lining but it was quite crudely bundled up and shoved in a shed, so I’m not surprised. However, it’s near the top and the supplied repair kit has so far done its job.
Have noticed a bit of rust on the frame poles. This seems to be where they slot in to each other so I think the protective paint has been scraped off when inserting them and this is where a bit of rust has set in. Doesn’t look too bad but only time will tell. I guess you could just treat the effected bits with Hammerite or something but I imagine the liner will go before the frame.
Draining is a bit of a pain as the drain hole is not right at the base of the pool so you have a couple of inches of water left in the bottom. Some of this can be enticed down the drain by lifting the pool end up and generating some waves, but will certainly not get rid of all. For that you’ll need to bucket out, or, use a pond vac if you have one. It’s surprising how heavy even an inch of water is so you can’t really take this apart properly until fully empty.
For the price we paid, we were happy for it to last one long Summer. To get another is a bonus and to be fair, now we’ve done it, there’s no reason to think it won’t do next year at least either. The only thing I would say is drain it, clean it and store it before the weather turns. We didn’t and it ended up sitting out in the garden for several weeks in the terrible Autumn weather. This resulted in a quite filthy liner and it took a lot of cleaning.
Only downside for me is that I now want a bigger one. With a sand filter. And robo cleaner. And skimmer…………
Great product. Would defo recommend buying a filter or cleaning/chlorine tablets
Great product, very easy to assemble and take down. Takes a long time to fill. It took me 8 hours but well worth the wait. I would recommend buying the pool cleaning/chlorine tablets first. I bought the pool without the filter and i couldn’t get the tablets anywhere for weeks. So after a few days had to change the water.

Some of this can be enticed down the drain by lifting the pool end up and generating some waves, but will certainly not get rid of all. For that you’ll need to bucket out, or, use a pond vac if you have one. It’s surprising how heavy even an inch of water is so you can’t really take this apart properly until fully empty.
For the price we paid, we were happy for it to last one long Summer. To get another is a bonus and to be fair, now we’ve done it, there’s no reason to think it won’t do next year at least either. The only thing I would say is drain it, clean it and store it before the weather turns. We didn’t and it ended up sitting out in the garden for several weeks in the terrible Autumn weather. This resulted in a quite filthy liner and it took a lot of cleaning.
Only downside for me is that I now want a bigger one. With a sand filter. And robo cleaner. And skimmer…………
Great size
Great pool and a great size for my 3 and 4 year old, they are practising their push and glide skills!!
Seems sturdy although a little rust showing after 2 months but I suppose it’s to be expected being constantly wet! Would be more than happy if it only lasted a year but I think we’ll get 2!
Great size pool
Easy to put up
Allow a full day to fill
Buy all the filters and heater and cover to leave it up (12 weeks we kept it up)
Make sure you have somewhere to decant the water.. (we had spare land behind our house) and buy the relevant pump to do so.
Takes about 5 hours to empty but was empty super easy to take down and pack away.
My 6 yr old could swim under water in it, but don’t leave unattended. My 12 year old had hours of fun in it too.
Great value sturdy pool, lots of fu
This is so easy to assemble me and my 8 year old daughter had it up in less than half an hour. There are no tools required, you simply click the poles into place. Takes a while to fill obviously but there is plenty of room for four of us and the kids can even have a little swim and floats in. Has been a great distraction during lockdown I am so pleased with it.
Good pool for a good price. Delivery is great too.
This pool is excellent. Delivery is quite speedy, the price is fair and the pool is durable. It’s great for when you want to cool down in a hot day. It seems decently sturdy and the material is good. I really do recommend this.
Decided to move away from the usual inflatable pools and spend more money and something that will hopefully last the summer. So far, this is amazing! Really easy to set up, plenty of room for the family to be in together, daughter loves playing in it and even deep enough to swim in it when using a swim harness. Highly recommend.
Perfec
Bought at the beginning of lockdown to have something fun this summer. I was a bit wary due to reading a number of bad reviews but we have been really happy with the pool.
Very easy to set up, seems sturdy, it’s been up for two months now and has no leaks and is providing so much fun during lockdown.
Would recommend a heater as it stays quite cold even though the hottest days.
Best pop up swimming pool
Oh yes. Good swimming. Strong swimming pool, this will last for a very last long time. The cats or foxes cant pop this one unlike the inflatable pools. I put the pool up in under 1 hour. Kids love it, and it is a good size and deep.
Great for kids to play in and for adults to cool off in!
So far loving this pool, bought for 4 year old but mum and dad are enjoying too! It has built in outlets to connect a filter pump which is a must if you want to keep setup for the summer, will also need some sort of chlorine tablets to keep the water fresh, it holds around 4500 litres of water so you don’t want to be refilling it once it’s set up, I’ve also bought a skimmer, vac and cover to keep it all clear of debris. Will be looking after it and packing up at end of summer to use again next year, the pool construction is very good, thick material and the frame is very strong, very pleased.

5* cant recommend enough!
Its brilliant! No leaks, easy to assemble and my son loves it, takes a while to heat up but using solar cover really helps! Can’t recommend it enough! Buy it in winter on sale bacause 230 is ridiculously over priced, i payed 100 in jan and then set it up in march with solar cover on and by may/June when good weather comes just dive in, really the hardest part of the hole thing was keeping my son out until the water warmed but it’s so worth it!
Perfect family pool
Took a lot longer to arrive than we wanted but a great pool. My family love it and are in it every day!! We got the filter as it’s very hard to empty but love it! Everyone is asking how they can buy one! X
Great size my children love it so easy to assemble I done it by myself . I would recommend getting the chlorine float along side it as it keeps the water crystal clear the before pic is after a day of use the after pic is the next morning after having chlorine Float in all night. The pool doesn’t come with a filter There are attachments I’d you wanted to buy one but I haven’t needed one just using a net to get out any bits were on day 4 and waters still clear and correct levels
easy assembled
seems like a quality product. put it up yesterday in nice sunny weather and then been bombarded by high winds ever since. appears durable and sturdy. very easy to assemble but remember to put it on as level a ground as possible and put something underneath to protect the base. i put mine on a piece of artificial grass i bought. took less than 4 hours to fill which was quicker than i though
Sturdy
Waited 3 weeks but it was worth it. Great pool and sturdy.
Good value.
Easy to assemble with two adults.
Appears to be sturdy and the children should enjoy using it this summer. We bought the 3m pool .
Great sized pool..shame about quality
. Could do with some more information in the booklet so you can assemble better . Not very informative.
Pool split on seam sent back wanted replacement waited 3 weeks so cancelled replacement now awaiting a refund
Great Pool
Amazing pool! Kids love it ,perfect during lockdown ! Everything we needed . Easy to assemble and quick to fill . Quick note we reinforced our decking in order to put the pool up on it . The manufacturers do
not advise to put on decking! We brought a floating chlorine dispenser to clean the pool . Overall an amazing product highly recommend !!
Great pool
It’s sturdy easy to put up I noticed other people said when dismantling the pool it was difficult to get the poles out and glue from the pool had stuck to them the instructions say put talcum powder on the poles first to stop this I’ve done it but haven’t dismantled yet so will update when I do my – and 8 year love this be warned yes it’s about 30 mins to put it up but will take about 5 hours to fill from standard hose pipe if your worried about the cold do buy a heater the pool will be very chilly don’t bother buying the Intex “solar heating cover” it’s rubbish great fun and for a different pool of this size your looking at 100-150++ so very good price
