Questions & Answers
With the help of his air compressor, my husband inflated a hose. He discovered a tiny pin hole at the bottom of the pool with just a little water in it. He used a Sharpie marker to mark it, then drained and patched the pool.
I had a total of six children, ranging in age from six to twelve years old. They were 9 years old at the time and fit comfortably, with the possibility of adding two more. There are three additional children.
We have a 10-foot-by-30-inch pool that we don't use because we don't have a ladder. When the grandchildren come over to swim, we help them get in and out of the pool if necessary. A fall or slipping step can be caused by a ladder.
I'd say it's at least 40 pounds, so if you can find it locally, that's probably the best option. If not, Walmart can ship it to you for free and pick it up at the nearest store.
Selected User Reviews For Intex Metal Frame Pool Set, 10-Feet x 30-Inch
This pool was our choice, and it's been fantastic. We didn't completely level the ground, but the two-inch slope from one side to the other appears to have had no effect over the last two months. We used foam pads beneath the pool and the cushioning was fantastic; I strongly advise you to give it a try. The filter is quite small, which is a disadvantage because they don't last very long, but the pump is functional, and the dual intakes are a nice feature because it prevents long hair from being sucked into them. So far, everything has gone smoothly; hopefully, it will continue to do so for at least another year!.
We're two adults, 50-years-old. In his 60s, he is in fairly good health. Even though we happened to have a double step for it, it's not difficult to get into. If you're under 5'6", a step may be required to avoid racking privates! We have it tucked away in a secluded corner of the yard, and it warms up quickly, so it's refreshing without stopping your heart! It's ideal for a skinny dip in the middle of the night! Lol!.
I've had a few pools that were quick to set up. I decided to upgrade this year, and what a difference it has made! Despite the fact that my previous pool was also a 10', this one feels twice as big! I took the time to level the yard; it's not perfect, but it's close. I haven't had any problems with the water because it's only about two inches off to one side. Make sure the side WITHOUT the filters has the lower water level if your sound is a little off. I do suggest getting a bigger pump. When my old one died last year, I bought a new one, and it has made a significant difference in my life. The extra $40 was well worth it when ordered through Amazon Prime. I've used other brands before, but Intex is far superior to them. I've never had one of their pumps die, and the vinyl is noticeably thicker. Because most of the products are designed for large pools, the biggest issue I've had with smaller pools is determining how much chemical to add. I researched several pool websites and discovered that to maintain proper chlorine levels, I can simply add 1/2 cup of bleach daily, along with tablets in a floater. So far, everything has gone smoothly! I use Clorox test strips because they come with a fantastic app. I should mention that after I set up the pool, I decided to cut down a few limbs to allow for more sunlight, and one of the limbs was particularly large and heavy, landing right on the pool. The only criticism I have is that the locking tabs on the leg pieces are plastic and shifted around while I was assembling them. It wasn't a big deal; all I had to do was wiggle the leg back into place with my finger. It would be better if they were made of metal, but I can't complain because they were only $100. First, I laid down a row of pavers, followed by pea gravel. Because you don't want any sharp objects under there, the pavers keep the Little Rocks from getting up beneath the lining. It has done an excellent job of keeping the kids' feet from getting muddy all the time and tracking it into the pool.
This was fantastic, and it was incredibly simple to put together. Only the pump is a disadvantage. It's too small for the amount of water it'll be cleaning. After about 2 hours, The filter must be cleaned or replaced every three days. The pump pressure was also not great, but the pool itself was fantastic. Our dogs were even allowed to swim in it with the kids. Keep in mind that most towns now have the following swimming pool laws: A fence is required for anything that can hold 24 inches or more of water. It makes no difference whether it's a permanent or temporary pool. We had to return ours because our next-door neighbor was a jerk and had reported us for having it.
This is one of the best purchases I've ever made. My older child suffers from cerebral palsy. Because I have epilepsy, getting my kids to the pool as often as we'd like is extremely difficult during the summer months; unless I have another adult with me and my three children, forget it! If a seizure occurs without an adult present, the worst-case scenario may occur. I bought it so we could have a pool in our backyard that wasn't a small kiddie pool where they would get bored quickly. It's only April, but we've already put it to good use. It's big enough for the kids to run around in and use their imaginations. They can swim, splash, float, and do whatever they want in the water! It took about an hour for me to put it together, and it wasn't too difficult. We're about a year and a half old. I was worried about 2 inches off level, but after some research and reading other reviews, I discovered that up to 2 inches off level is acceptable. It was placed on our concrete patio by me. The filter pump is working fine so far, but after reading other reviews, I'm willing to purchase a replacement if necessary. We still come out ahead in terms of the pool's cost. Yes, you should buy one if you're on the fence about it. Do it!.
Setup is a breeze. It's a nice small pool that my wife, son, and I can hang out in without feeling crowded. It was a good fit for our space. br>Easy to set up; two people are ideal, but no special tools are required. br>There's no need for a ladder because you can climb over the side, but it's high enough that my three-year-old won't fall in. br>The pump is small, and we plan to upgrade it, but for the time being, we have a clean pool (I also purchased a cover for when the pools are not in use). br>The pool was delivered in less than 48 hours after I placed my order, which surprised me. It arrived in good condition, and I was able to move it on my own.
