The filter is way too small and doesn't do much of anything so constantly having to clean the pool but the pool itself is great. They have to make a larger filter. Only buy if you plan on upgrading the filter

The pool is great

Follow instructions when up pretty easy with two family members. It is up level and full of water all is good in Marysville!

Very easy to set up once your ground is ready and strong. Had a little leak around the one plastic hose that went to the pump but it was a easy fix. Grandkids and children are enjoying it very much!

Great pool and easy to install, but they need better ladder.

Easy set up. The most important thing to remember is the preparation of the ground, pick up rocks or anything sharp. You will need to buy filters because you will go thru them. I highly recommend this pool.

Easy installation and brings the family together for a not so easy project.

Love it. It is the new craze around the neighborhood.

It's great. just perfect for my 3 grandchildren to swim in this summer. Very sturdy and easy to maintain.

Easy to assemble. Did not come with instructions on how to USE the vacuum but a quick online search helped out a lot. Filter pump doesn't quite keep up but if you keep a clean pool, its just fine.

Pool was easy to install with 2 people. Kids love 6”the upgrade from 12 to 15, tons more room. Latter was a bit of a challenge but the online tutorial really helped putting that together. Overall good material no issues when it was unpacked!

After reading reviews of this pool, I was hesitant to purchase. Glad I did. It takes money and work to install a pool properly. You can't just throw this pool up in an unprepared yard and expect no issues. After our own experience, I feel fairly certain most of these poor reviews are from people who did just that. If you DO NOT want to invest in ground prep, have time to clean the filter everyday, or test/treat water with appropriate chemicals; this is NOT the pool for you. You will most likely have issues with liner tears and filter/water clarity. Intial prep: we leveled, built a heavy duty containment framining for the area, added sand, tamped it solid, under the pool we placed a purchased pool underlay, and once set we added decorative rock around the pool to prevent sand erosion. Installing was easy, instructions ok, requires a bit of patience to make sure it's wrinkle free, as any pool does. I definitely wouldn't let pets in/around the pool or excessive horseplay within, the pool itself is thin, I'm sure it wouldn't take to much to puncture. As expected with any above ground pool under 1,000 dollars.. Ladder is sturdy, holds up to 300 pounds. Vaccume works well, although the adjustable length handle is a pain to keep adjusted out. Cover is very thin and requires 2+ people to put on/off, definitly the "cheapest" made part and if I could rate it alone, 1 star for sure. The filter is doing fine. We remove the filter cartridge daily and spray it clean with a water hose. We replace the cartridge with a fresh one weekly. I'm not so thrilled of the side mount. I really don't care for the skimmer basket style of pump. Problem being, if it does stop working, we can only purchase the same type/brand of pump for the unique hook up. With overall performance of the pump, I would give it 4 stars, but am sure without proper chemical levels and diligent cartridge cleaning water clarity would of course be an issue. If you've never owned a pool, the pump does doesn't magically keep it 100% debris free. Still requires vaccuming and skimming. It's meeting our needs and is the expected quality without any issues, 4 stars overall is fair I feel.

I bought this about 3 weeks ago great pool. Pump does work excellent you just need to fill over it not just so water in it and so jets under water very powerful. I got this pool just wicker one.

not a good pool to get got it friday set it up started filling saturday just finished today and is already leaking now we have to drain 5 thousand gallons of water and bring it back so they can refund our money not a happy camper right now

As far as when the pool arrived I was very pleased. It came earlier than expected. The pool itself I feel was a little over priced for what I got.

The pool and accessories are good but the pump and filter are too small. Plan on replacing or cleaning the filter every day. A sand filter works a lot better.

Not what I expected. There was not a way to keep the pool water clean no matter how much you tried. Didn’t matter if the pool filter was on 24/7. The size of the pool was awesome but needs a bigger filter more heavy duty. You will spend more time changing the filter than enjoying time swimming.

it was good for about a month or 2 and all of a sudden the liner started showing signs of separating in spots the liner and pump is complete garbage go with something better this product will not last and I am in the process of trying to figure out how to get it warrantied out or the money back

Kids love it.

The product is good it's not as good as a Nextex pool but if I get two summers out of it I'll be amazed and thankful

This pool was so easy to set up and we have enjoyed using it the filter works great but the ladder is a bit cheap Would buy another when needed

Easy to assemble, well built.

Nice and Rumi. My kids love it.

The pool is good the pump sucks I have to wash the filter every 8 hours due to it not being big enough or strong enough to do much of anything for the pool it's self I will have to figure out how to hook up a bigger pump and filter system to it

Replaced a ten year pool about the same. Easy to set up but was a little unhappy it didn't include ground cover. Just used the old ones. Quality is excellent and will consider it a good purchase if it lasts as long or longer the last pool.

A great family project to build in one day!

We loved!!!!! Nice pool We highly recommend this product
