5.0 out of 5 stars Great Value if you understand drawbacks, January 9, 2009

This pool is a great buy for the price, but you should understand what you are getting.

1) The sides of the pool rise up as you fill the pool, therefore if you start the pool on an area with a slant you will have problems when the pool fills to the top--one side will have extra material because of the water level. The flatter the surface the better. You can make this work on ground that is somewhat uneven, but it take a lot of work.

2) You MUST make sure that bottom of the pool is pulled out to make a true circle. It is easy to be lazy with this because when there is no water in the pool it can look "good enough," but if you have an oval there is a chance that the water will push out and start to flow out once it is filled.

3) If you plan to put this away year after year get a ground cloth. If the pool is on grass the bottom is IMPOSSIBLE to clean. At the price, I would recommend throwing it out at the end of the season.

4) The pump is very basic. You will need to add chemicals to keep it clean. Get a net to clean the big stuff out.

For the $60-100 price tag you can't really go wrong if what you are looking for is some simple fun and a chance to cool off.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best 60 bucks I've spent on my son..., May 4, 2009

This review is from: Intex Easy Set 12-Foot by 30-Inch Round Pool Set (Lawn & Patio)

MAKE the ground flat...I dug out a space for it in my yard, built a little retaining wall around it with cheap paver bricks, filled the area with sand, leveled the sand, and voila. I leave the pool up in the winter with a cover over it, add the algae-cide and chlorine in the spring and its good as new. This is the best 60-70 dollars I've ever spent on my son. He, my nephews, and any other visitors play for hours and hours in the summer time...absolutely awesome for the money. I run the pump on a timer, 8 hours a day, add about 1 - 3 oz of chlorine granules a day in the hot summer, shock it after storms or heavy use, and it stays clear and clean. The directions clearly state that you must set up on level ground. It will collapse under the weight of the water as soon as a little one leans on an uneven side, so DO NOT USE IT ON UN-LEVEL SURFACES. We are off aprox 1" from side to side and that is about the most you can go without probs. I even take dips after mowing the lawn or working in the yard, and my wife and I use it like a cool-tub for romantic eve's. Nice to sit and sip on wine on a hot August night ; )

5.0 out of 5 stars GREAT ALTERNATIVE TO IN GROUND POOL, May 5, 2010

This review is from: Intex Easy Set 18-Foot by 48-Inch Round Pool Set (Lawn & Patio)

I have had this pool for three years now, I had the smaller one before that. It is wonderful. The key is to buy the saltwater filter. If you do this it is easy to maintain, and NO CHEMICALS. I live in southern California and it gets HOT in the summer. This pool goes up in MAY and down In September. I run the pump 24/7 to keep it crystal clean, and never notice it on my electric bill. Try that with an in ground pool!
