My family has really enjoyed the pool. We bought it about a month ago and have swam in it every day since! My son has taken swim classes for 3 months yet I feel he has learned more in 3 weeks in "his own pool". Just deep enough for swimming but shallow enough for him to touch bottom. (Would not recommend anything shallower) Set-up of the pool was quick (30-45 min.) and easy (the longest part is unpacking because each piece is individually wrapped). Make sure you have level ground! Also kinda disappointed that the drain valve is not on opposite side of filter/pump connections. We look forward to lots of swimming this summer!

We bought this pool to entertain our children some of the time. Our 6 year old and wonderful neighbors have enjoyed this pool and have not had a complaint one. I would reccomend this pool to other people looking for a pool that is not too deep and not a baby pool for children. our neighbors three year old could stand in this pool without going under. This may help some customers on their descision. Thanks Walmart for this great possesion!!

I bought this pool about one month ago and it exceeds my expectations! It took me, a 40 year old female, about an hour to set it up by myself. Then it took about 8 hours to fill with the garden hose. I hardly saw a difference in my water bill and the filter does not make any difference in my electric bill. The pool has stayed clean by running the filter for about 4 hours a day, skimming it everyday, and vacuuming once a week. Of course check chemicals on a daily basis. My 3 year old son and I love this pool!! It could fit 3 kids and 3 adults easily!

I PURCHASED THIS POOL ON LINE IN JUNE AND I AM VERY PLEASED WITH IT. QUICK SET UP AND NO PROBLEMS. FOR THE PRICE EVEN IF IT ONLY LAST ONE SEASON YOU CAN NOT COMPLAIN BUT I HAVE BOUGHT OTHER INTEX POOLS AND THEY WOULD LAST 4 - 5 YEARS. I ONLY HAD TO REPLACE THE PUMP AND TUBING AFTER THE 3RD YEAR WITH THE ROUND BLOW UP POOL. I WOULD RECOMMEND THIS POOL TO ANYONE.

The Pool is easy to set up. This is a great pool,fun for the whole family. My Grandaughter's love the pool. Ages 4 and 7 year's old. I also purchase the pool cover.
This pool is perfect size for our children ages 4, 6, and 9. There is also plenty of room for my wife and I (as long as you do not mind getting splashed or doing actual swimming). The pool was easy to assemble and was really ready for water in about 30 minutes. This does not include leveling the ground or assembling the ladder. The pool only comes with the ladder and pump. My biggest issue with the pool is the pump. I feel it is not powerful enough to keep the small debris circulated to and through filter. I would suggest getting a bigger pump or invest in a cover to help reduce the amount of small leaves, bugs, and/or dirt that will end up on the bottom of the pool.

I have had the pool set up and running for about 2 1/2 weeks. Was fairly easy to set up and fill. Directions were easy to follow. I had leveled the area where we set up the pool and do recommend a level area. It came with a ladder and filter, which were both easy to set up and use.
My one complaint is that the feet are small and are sinking into my prepared surface some. When I set up the pool next year, I will put something under the feet.

Set up was not too bad. I watched Youtube videos by the manufacturer and read the instructions that were included. Pool was up in an hour. We were blissfully playing in our pool by the next day. It's great for my boys 12 and 8 and I love floating in it.

Hot Summer In Texas

Searched all over for the perfect pool for the kids. (HOT SUMMERS IN TEXAS !!)
I wanted the 15x48 but due to the high demand could not locate one; finally settled on this. I made a good choice !! It looks exactly like the picture; the size is great for my 7 yr. old (very beginner swimmer) and 11 yr. old (progessing swimmer); larger and more roomier than expected. Read and watched the DVD for instruction and was able to put the pool up in about 45 minutes.
I rated it a little lower because it does not come with the bells and whistles of the larger pool. I had to purchase a tarp, maintence kit and a skimmer; the problem being as a person who has never owned a pool, wasn't aware of ALL the extra's. The DVD makes it look a lot easier than it is, but for the price..not to bad.
I highly recommend that your ground is leveled and that you not attempt this alone. Thus far, despite the minor things mentioned, the pool is fairing nicely. I will definitely shoot for the larger one next year :)

I ordered this pool online because the stores were sold out. I chose the 97 cent standard shipping and received the pool in less than 24 hours! It was easy to set up and didn't take long to fill. I was amazed at the size of the pool. I was thinking a 12ft by 3+ft wouldn't be very big but I was wrong!! It is easy to keep clean also. I have a 12yr old and a 5yr old who use the pool on a daily basis. I also have many other children visiting on a regular basis and the pool holds up well. Last weekend we had 6 children in the pool at one time. I would definitely recommend this pool to everyone. It has made a huge difference in family time this summer.

We LOVE this pool!!!! The pool and the ladder are VERY sturdy. I love the fact that I can lift the ladder to place it in the pool so our 2 year old can't climb in, but it's heavy enough a child, especially a toddler, could NOT lift it out! The filter changes are very simple too! This is our first above ground pool, so we are very happy with our choice! Thank's to the review's on Walmart.com from other customer's, you guy's led us to purchase this pool!!! Thank you! Hope this help's another customer with their decision making!

we picked the pool up on Saturday morning and it took us (my husband and I) 30 minutes to put it together the ladder was harder, but I finally read the directions. It took 3hours to fill it with water. I could not believe how easy it was. The best summer purchase thus far. We have two girls 8yrs and 5yrs they loved it. I was a little worried about it not being deep enough but my 5yr is 42inch and it was perfect for her hieght. They were in the pool both Saturday and Sunday and we took a dip also. In the Texas heat this pool made our day. Now I want the larger one. Only reason not giving it a 5 star because we have only had it for 3 days.

Great Pool for kids

I bought this pool a few weeks ago. Setup was pretty easy, no problems, just make sure that all the legs are angled correctly when filling with water and when the water is about 3-6 inches deep, go in and smooth all the wrinkes out of the bottom. Things you may want to get for this pool: A ground cover (I bought the one for pools, it's nothing more than a tarp, and a regular tarp is cheaper), a pool vaccuum and net for cleaning, an outdoor timer (filter pump does not have an on/off switch), a pool cover, and if you are wanting to use a saltwater system, you'll need a different pump. This one comes with the 530 gph and you should use a 1000 gph pump with the saltwater system. I chose to do the saltwater system because I hate the use of all the chemicals with traditional chlorination and I love the saltwater system.
The kids would give this pool a 10 star rating if they could...they absolutely love it. No complaints from them at all. The height is perfect for most kids, not too shallow but not too deep and it's big enough for several kids or the family to play in. We would definitely recommend this pool to anyone.

I bought this pool 2 months ago. I have 3 very energetic boys ages 12, 11, and 6. I needed something to keep them entertained and cool this summer. My back yard is not very big, but this pool fits. I was skeptical that it would not be durable enough for my loveable monsters. I have been plesently suprised it's still standing and holding out. I would however recomend that you follow the chlorinating and filter changing recomendations. It is a pool and needs to be maintained.
