We bought this on sale at the end of July last year. We weren't sure if we were going to be "pool people" or not so when it was on sale for $300, I figured why not. Turns out, we love having a back yard pool! It was simple to put together and a great size for our family. We regretted not prepping the ground better before setting it up, but mother nature took care of it! We had drained the pool to clean it and then our ADHD brains got the best of us. It was sitting empty when we had a bad wind storm and it was destroyed. I've been watching the price every day to see if I can catch it on another sale. Hint to Sam's club.... put it on sale please! I'm eager to buy it again!

I hadn't intended to purchase this but caught it on sale so thought I would get for grandkids. My husband went all out and put plastic down and then put about 4" of sand to give some cushion and make easier to level. Installation went pretty smooth. We ended up using sand in the filter instead of included cotton balls. We have an issue with one of the hoses leaking just a smidge and think it's a bad o-ring so I am currently in the process of getting it replaced. So far I am happy with the pool.

purchased june 2,2024 going on 3rd season. first season packed it up and put it away. this was a bit of a pain. Last season i left it up. Got most of it cleaned up but still needs cleaned. Have not had any issues with pool itself. did have to get a new pump. old one was making a bit of noise an leaking. ladder can get a bit wobbly consistent on checking the bolts for safety. first season put it on main ground that was horrible. 2025 took the time to put it over sand to help with a cushion an smooth the bottom out. much better. we didnt get a cover with ourd so we are regretting lifes decisions about where it was placed..haha. The new one's seem to come with a cover though. overall the pole itself seems to be pretty sturdy ,and the poles that hold it up seem to be pretty good we placed a tarp underneath of the pool so it would be over the sand just to help with a little bit of extra cushion and the placement is pretty good the intake and out take are really good I do recommend getting a good pool cleaner the one that it comes with is not so great. so overall this is a very good pool we've had it going on the 3rd season now and hopefully we don't have any more issues. Also recommend a leaf catcher for the side if u plan on not covering up the pool. This will save alot of mess in the long run.

This pool is a great deal and bigger than expected. I recommend to assemble the pump first to make sure there are missing parts. The pool set that I received was missing the complete port “A” components and 2 gaskets. Hopefully Bestway will send me the parts at no charge. Also setting up the pool is a two or three person job. However the pool is easy to put together in about 1 1/2-2 hours not counting the pump.

We just set this pool up a couple of weeks ago. Fairly easy - but with two people took all afternoon including ground prep. We have not used the pool as it cooled off and storms came after set up. So far it has held up to the storms. The filter is not adequate. We called the customer support line to ensure we set it up correctly and their own support staff told us the filter was too small for the pool size. Working on replacing the filter so the grands can enjoy when it warms up.

Seems like a nice pool. Assembly of the pool itself was easy. The pump and filter do not go together as pictured, but everything will be fine if you ignore the picture and make sure you connect a to a, b to b, etc. The hoses are just too stiff. My problem was that the manual does not explain all the parts, does not tell you you'll need to run to Ace to cobble together a hose connection for the outflow, and forgets to point out there is a power switch on the circulating pump. Everything will check out, and all the pre-use steps work fine, but it wont work in normal operation because they forgot to tell you to turn the circulating pump on.

The frame does not last, it is sold as steel, corrosion resistant frame and ours rusted all around in the first 8 months to a year.

Didn't hold up the legs an sides bent from the water pressure , wasn't able to use

Liner and pump will get a second year of use but the poles are so rusted after one year that can't use them. My first pool was intel and it lasted 7 years. Pretty disappointed with the quality of this brand. I even take it down and store it fo the winter.

Rusted all the way through at the same points around the pool while the rest of the poles were fine. I contacted Sam's Club and was told they would not honor the return any time listed when purchased due to being used for 2 summers.
