It’s easy enough to set and fill up, there were no leaks in mine. As I seen that some people had weeds and grass grow through their tarps AND pool I laid down some heavy duty “contractor” tarps. I also laid down some extra padding (i.e. old workout mats). I had enough for the bulk of the center of pool and, to me, they were helpful but to properly do the full pool it’d have costed ≈$120+ to do the full circumference. Moving on, you definitely want some sort of pump to air up the upper rim (I has to pull my car into my yard to use a pump that plugged into my car lighter port). As pretty much everyone else says, you need to get your land/yard as even as possible. Mine wasn’t “perfect” and it definitely bulged to one side, but was still “fine” for the 2mo of use. You might as well order all the accessories: a skimming net; a cover; chlorine/ chemicals; and some sort of vacuum. You may like to get extra filters too, though just an fyi the pump sucks. The water we filled up ours w/ is irrigation water so i knew it was going be very difficult to keep “sparkling” clean (i.e. wasn’t going to happen). You have to be pretty...

Sarah Zahnd: Great little pool. This is out 4th over the years but out first Summer Waves.
Due to COVID prices were crazy this year.
Compared to Intex, which we normally buy, this was definitely not the same quality but, since it's only two adults using it, it works for us.
The ring isn't very strong and would not hold up a kid jumping over the edge. Expected to lose some water.

bbsrs: Though the ground is level, the pool looks like it's leaning. I check the water level in several places and it varies perhaps as much as 1/8". So I know it is level. I thought I ordered a 36" deep pool. I do not know if I made the mistake or the description was changed. It is actually a 30" pool. It works fine.

KayleighKayleigh: The media could not be loaded. I bought a pool and just finished filling it up. Just turned off the water walked to the back yard and just got really disappointed! There a leak in my pool I never used. I totally understand stand having a whole after using it for a year. But not even using it just filling it up and just setting it up.. its going to be in the 80 this weekend was looking forward to using it.
But now I have the fear I will have to drain it and send it back to you and on top of it pay all that money in water twice because of this. Just really disappointed.
Other the the small leak the pool looks awesome. Will work for my small family. Just wish we didn't get a bad one out of the bunch. But we will see how the company handles the problem.
I did email the company and asked them if they are going to send a replacement or a way to fix it. I will try to remember to update the review about the company.

Dog's Dinner: The pool was overpriced probably due to pandemic pricing. I am not OK with gouging, normally, but it is the best $400 overcharge I have ever paid, and we had crap weather this summer... The filter, as most reviewers have noted, is not very effective, but better than nothing.
Our little is already asking for summer back and to go in the pool... it's December.
However, the fittings were not good quality and if we hadn't had access to silicone tape, a file, some orange gunk, moxie, and a pipefitter we would have been screwed. The drain fitting would not hook up to our hose, so it made fall takedown tedious, at best.

lindsay cole: Pool pump lid leaked immediately upon set up, fully read instructions placed pool on Pool tarp as the bottom of the pool is very thin and could easily rip and filled pool to indicated line, in sunny spot to warm up, an hour later came outside to see the pool back down to half way and water all over the lawn and driveway, the pool seems only strong enough to hold half the water, tried to find the leak but was unable to find it, pool was on sale for 370.00 and no air pump was included, did not even have a chance to plug in the pump as it was leaking, lid was on very tight and could not find the pool leak, and should not have to fix a brand new never used pool, packed the pool up and paid 37.00 to ship it back to sender as it was not prepaid. Very upsetting! I expect a new pool to be functional when set up correctly! Purchased a pool cover separately and that is the only thing worth keeping! Do not buy this pool and if it’s on sale there may be a reason!

Denise: This is a great pool size for lounging around in - even for adults and teens. Not so deep that it's crazy cold, but enough depth to relax on floaties and cool off. Unfortunately, when our pool arrived, there was a hole in the seam of the pool - which of course we didn't see until the pool had been filled. Also, the blow up circular area kept loosing air and needed to be pumped up every few days. Thankfully our seller reimbursed us our money for the purchase.

Bre: We’ve had our pool for two months. I have a 3 and 5 year old. It is the perfect size for their ages!!
The pool is Super easy to assemble. We have lines/wrinkles at the bottom of the pool bc we weren’t able to get them all out when filling but aside from that, easy nice pool! We did buy a tarp to put under the pool so some wrinkles might be / are probably from that as well.
The filter works great. We put two 1”chlorine tabs in the filter once a week and change the filter every two weeks and we’ve had perfect water.
We have water that pools up every day by the in out tubes for the filter, we thought we had a leak. Whatever it is is not effecting the level of the pool. Sounds odd but it doesn’t. Maybe it’s the filter, the lines.. we aren’t concerned bc it is not major and we haven’t had to put any water in the pool.
No ladder is needed.
I would recommend this pool to anyone who has little kids or who just wants to float!

John: We got our pool from Doug Delivers. As far as customer service, Doug was excellent. He answered all my questions & when he didn’t have an answer, he actually emailed links that would help. He answered his emails in a timely manner. I was very impressed that he wasn’t one that disappeared once he got the money. The pool came before the estimated date. My kids love the pool. My only problem with it is that I have to inflate the top ring twice a day. Other than that, it does the job. I would definitely order from Doug again just for his customer service!! Thanks for all your help.

Sam T.: The longest part of this setup honestly was making sure the ground or base is level beforehand. Once that was done you just follow the instructions for the in and output locations for the filter pump and fill it up. You will need to inflate the top ring and I used a simple bicycle pump. This pool is wonderful and well worth the money.
