Great family pool

This pool is amazing! In the I.E. California heat, it has been a life saver. I put it together by myself and it took about an hour.

Bestway Tanx Pool

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Bestway Tanx pool is pretty straight forward when it comes down to the installation part. Two people can easily assemble this at around 2 hours. It’s definitely made to last, the steel is so sturdy and I can see that this pool being a great investment long term. It’s the perfect size for my narrow side yard. This will be the pool for the grandparents and kiddos. It’s so easy to get in and out! It’s also aesthetically pleasing. We now also have an even bigger pool in the back of our yard and a jacuzzi on our patio. We have plenty of pools I should say 😆 That’s the good part of being in Florida! We have options ! A heated jacuzzi for chilly nights and a cool brisk pool during the day. I definitely love this bestway tanx pool, and if you want super high quality that comes with everything you see in the photos, pump as well. This is a wonderful choice.

This pool is a summer game changer!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was by far the easiest pool to put together without me and my husband fighting the entire time. The instructions are clear, the materials are solid and feel durable and I feel like it’s so worth the money. It’s the perfect size for our two boys and it’s in the yard away from the trees so it stays clear from any debris. If you’re looking for a pool that is structurally solid and you have kids that are hard on stuff this is the pool to get and you won’t be disappointed!

We love it!

Love this pool! We originally were looking at getting a real stock tank pool but I found this while researching and it was going to be significantly cheaper and easier to get to our house. Set up was easy, I did it by myself in about an hour but it would be much faster with 2 people. I would look up the assembly video from bestway before purchasing to get a good idea of how the pool works. The quality seems great, we'll see how it holds up. The first pool we received unfortunately had a hole in the liner so we had to return it and get a replacement but so far so good on the 2nd one. Sam's customer service was incredible, but it was frustrating to have to return the whole pool instead of being able to get a replacement liner. We will probably upgrade to a better pump at some point as the included pump doesn't move enough water but we were planning on doing that anyway. All around, I suggest it if you're into the stock tank pool idea but are wanting a cheaper easier option.

Looks promising! Set up straight forward

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So excited to have received this product in exchange for my review. Now, I will have to come back and edit this review once we are in pool season. It did take a long time to come in and most of the review time was running out in the product while we were under freeze and cold temps. We are still not to temps were we can test the pool out actually getting in it, but we were able to get it set up on our concrete pad and get all the pump tech hooked up relatively easy. I say relatively but it does take some elbow grease to really get the panels connected and it built up all the way. However it come with a cover which is super nice! And we are excited to be able to use it once the weather warms up. It seems very sturdy and it is LARGE. Definitely big enough for 2-3 adults to hang out on a hot day and get some cool relief!

Easy set up and perfect to cool off in

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’m happy with it set up is pretty easy and took 30 to 40 minutes with two people, and the steel tank feels sturdy and much more adorable than inflatable pools. The size is good for cooling off or relaxing, but it’s not deep enough for actual swimming-it’s more of a sit and soak pool and works best for a couple of adult adults or kids. The pump. Works fine but it’s pretty basic so you may. Need to clean the filter often or upgrade iit later. Overall, it’s a solid small pool if you want. Something adorable and easy. to set up for the summer.

Beware of leaking

We purchased this pool in lieu of an actual stock tank due to the style and look. It was easy to assemble, but as soon as we filled it with water, it leaked around the seams of the connections. This design was engineered poorly, so be aware of that. We had to use some extra silicon in order to prevent leaking. It was easy to put together and the kids love it, but if you can get past the poor design, it’s a great starter pool.

For the price, OK.

Pool went together easily. I took my time so it took an hour or so. Overall, for the price, the pool is as expected. The liner seems to be the best feature...the padding on the bottom is quite thick and comfortable. The pump and hoses are another story. I will be surprised if the pump lasts for a month. It barely moves water. The thin hoses leak at every seal. I'm afraid to tighten the plastic clamps any further for fear they will break. I would hope Bestway would provide a better filtration system in the future.

You might need a pump

Not part of a promotion, haha - I purchased this pool a few weeks ago and have had a chance to use it and get used to the smaller-size pool. I was originally interested in a stock tank pool but figured that this might be a good investment to see if I'd actually use it, and with everything I needed included, it was cheaper than a new stock tank pool setup. However, I've noticed the pump hardly moves water. Everything else about the pool is cool! But, I was unfortunately let down by the underwhelming pump. With this knowledge, I would have chosen to go with the stock tank pool setup. Unfortunately, it's not worth the effort to take it down so I won't return/exchange it, but I wanted to provide a review for those in a similar situation!

JUNK

Don't waste your money. This is the biggest piece of junk that's ever existed. All three connections leak. It takes way longer than 25-30 minutes to assemble like the advertisement states. I'll never buy anything made by this company or one associated with them
