Struck out twice (Leaks)

Tried this twice and both leaked. We had it level with sand; and even used foam boards and it just leaked. I mean really. It was easy to put together but was such a disappointment. Will never buy this brand again.

Great Pool - Terrible Pump

The pool is great - highly recommend. The pump is terrible. Only had the pool and pump for a month and some of the parts on the pump have already failed. Very frustrating, and the Bestway website does not sell replacement parts.

Leaking

Bought one, filled it, leaking out of the bottom. Returned it, got a second one ..filled it, leaking. It's like there didn't even a hole, the material is too think and it's leaking through. It is completely garbage.

Great pool

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love the size of this pool! Also really pleased with how easy it was to set up and fill! Also a big fan of the sand filtration system! Will be spending a lot of time poolside this summer!

So far, so good.

Great so far. Haven’t had any issues like the other reviews. In the process of buying a saltwater pump for the pool. The original pump is fine, we just want to convert to saltwater.

Major corrosion!!!

We bought this pool 2 years ago and the frame is rusting and flaking off so bad. Several top rails have holes in them and are starting to break. If you are considering buying this pool I would do my research on other brands first!!

We got it about a month ago. no problems but would love for any ideas how to warm the water no matter what we tried it's too cold to get in. can't find parts to go with the pump to use a pool heater with it.
