[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This pool set has everything you need. From the pump, to the ladder to the pool. The boxes are of course a bit heavy since they are filled. Everything is quite simple to put together. It definitely takes a couple hours to get everything put up and thats not including if you have to level out a spot in your yard for it. I'm the material feels and looks durable. I am really liking the concept of the pool filtration balls as well. It comfortably fits a family of 4 with floating and could fit more in as well and still have space. I recieved this product free from influenster for my honest opinion.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I just got it up It seems very durable and easy to assemble as long as you have 2 to 3 people. And hold a big amount of water. And the maintenance looked easy with all of the equipment provided, I will say make sure you have a flat surface to put the pool on that. It’s something I’m trying to tackle now before filling completely. But it’s a great pool and 10/10 recommend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very conveniently packaged for easy to relocate and set up. Instructions were to the point and provides all the necessary information needed to get it done. I like how light weight it all is making it was to take down and move or put away for the winter (if you live in a climate like that) the water is the perfect amount. It’s not too big but not too small. It’s a real pool! It comes with everything you need to get started and super easy to keep clean. It’s just what you need for those long hot summer days. Honestly the hardest part is making sure you install it on a nice level surface. It’s perfect. Great for kids and adults to cool off in. The bars that make up the frame are solid and strong. The lining is tough and durable. This will last a while if you take care of it!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Absolutely LOVE this pool!!! The construction was super easy- literally took my fiancé and brother two hours! Amazing size- doesnt take up too much space while also being large! Seems stable and very useful. Definitely look forward to more pool days!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Power steel best way power steel round pool in size 16’x48” easy to set up will say it’s definitely a two person job. Easy to fill up with water to the capacity it can safely hold. Cleaning is easy to handle especially with all the great tools that come with it. And the fact it comes with so many accessories to ensure properly running of the filtration to the floater for the chlorine tablets . Stability of the steel frame seems solid which is wonderful

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] What I loved about Bestway 16 x 48 Pool: - Once it’s up and filled, this pool really feels like a proper backyard pool - not a flimsy kiddie setup. It’s sturdy, spacious enough to hang out with friends and family, and pretty deep for adults to actually enjoy. - The steel frame feels solid and holds up well once tensioned with water. - The assembly was manageable with two people ( the ground was properly prepared well in advance). - The kit includes the essentials - filter pump, ladder, cover - which makes it easy to get going right away. The installation reality: - leveling the ground matter a lot. I had to spend extra time prepping a perfectly flat area before assembling. Without doing that ahead of time, the bottom liner wouldn’t sit evenly and the wall support would t lock in correctly. - the included filter pump is okay, but not great. It works but it’s underpowered for proper water circulation and cleaning- especially on a bigger pool like this one. I chose to upgrade to a stronger pump to save myself time and aggravation. - watching YouTube tutorials first really helped me navigate the installation process and avoid a few mistakes. - I had a couple of small hiccups with hardware connections during the setups - nothing major, but it took a few extra minutes to get everything aligned straight. Use & maintenance: - once filled, it felt stable and fun for the summer - exactly what I wanted. But the water clarity and circulation definitely improved after I swapped out the stock pump. - frequent cleaning of the cartridge isn’t a big deal, but I quickly started to appreciate a larger filter system when the pool started to get heavy use. Final impression: Overall, this pool gave me a true backyard swimming experience at a fraction of the cost of professional installations. It’s sturdy and reasonably easy to set up. Just be ready to prep the ground well and be open to upgrading the pump for easier maintenance.

We've had above ground pools for about 10 years now. This one went up so smoothly…had some little upgrades in th structure and the way it's put together. The pump is awesome and is big enough to actually clean the pool. Setup was a breeze. It's a tad big for our yard but that's on us, we never learn haha This came with all the accessories needed too!

We were so excited to set up our first pool. We ordered the Bestway 16 foot round above ground pool. We leveled and prepped our yard and took a day off work to set up the pool. The supplies were well packaged and securely wrapped inside. We took everything out and counted all the pieces before beginning the process of building the pool. Unfortunately, we noticed a cut through the liner as we started to open it. The kit comes with a few patches, so we decided to patch the inside and outside of the liner (the cut was through the bottom of the pool) and proceed with set up as we were on a very strict time line because of work schedules and this particular sized pool is not sold in our local Sams Club. We continued set up yesterday with no other problems and began to fill the pool. We have now noticed a pinhole leak on the sidewall and used another patch for it. We are upset that a brand new pool that we have yet to swim in already has a few issues. I would love for the company to reach out about additional patches and a possible replacement for when this one inevitably dies because it was never in pristine shape.

I'm confused with hooking the pump up a what goes where… Do I need sand for it?? If someone could answer my questions I'd appreciate it… also my pool isn't level like we thought it would be once it filled halfway up do I need to worry about it collapsing on that one side??

I ordered this pool online because we are over 2 hours away from a Sam's Club. Put it up. It leaked. They offered a replacement and to send a pickup if we could package it back in the same box for pickup. I told them there was no way we could fold this thing back up and fit it in the same box and close it up the way it came from the manufacturer. He said they would “try to find a carrier that would take it with the box open “ Good luck with that. The customer service rep was very nice but we have decided to try to find the leak on a $400 pool and keep it.
