Sturdy and durable!

This pool is fantastic. I had two other wet set models but had problems with leveling and the sides crashing in when a few kids get rowdy. The metal frame is very strong and holds up well even if your ground has a slight slant. I found it very easy to put up (about an hour). The filter could be better but it does the trick. My son and I are in the pool daily and love it!More detail ...

Awesome pool!

I bought this pool last month (July) and have been swimming in it almost everyday! I only wish I bought it sooner. I did have ground leveling issues but that was my own fault and not the pool itself. I highly recommend completely leveling your ground before putting the pool up and filling it. I learned this the hard way. My ground was not level so we ended up having to put bricks under the un-leveled poles. As of now it has been working out great. Since I bought the pool so late in the summer I figured this could be a temporary fix. But next season I will be sure to level out the ground first.More detail ...

Don't Forget the Salt

This pool is great! Setup was relatively easy but you do need a helping hand (my 13 y.o. helped me) and there are some things you should be aware of before you purchase it.



1. If you purchase the 18' X 9' X 52" pool with saltwater filter you'll need 115 pounds of salt which cost me $30.00 at a local pool supply store. I bought 4 bags (each bag weighed 40 pounds) and used slightly less than 3 to start the system. You'll need to add more salt occasionally (30 pounds or so) when the code on the filter tells you to do so.



2. 5-6 feet of free space is required around the perimeter of the pool. (I didn't have this space available and had to change my desired location for the pool.) This is because the U-shaped metal supports attached to the top rail lay flat on the ground outwardly during setup. Then you pick the top rail off the ground which makes the U-shaped supports slide into place. This starts holding the pool up and in place. Your helper then attaches the pool liner to the bottom of each support. I hope this makes sense. You definitely need that extra space around the pool!



3. Your area should be very level. Take the time to clear rocks that could puncture the liner and to prep the area well. I think the best place for the pool would be on level cement.More detail ...
