Intex 32ft x 16ft x 52in Ultra Frame Rectangular Above-Ground Swimming Pool Kit

Jess K: Given the price we paid for this, I was satisfied with the quality of the pool. Setup was not exactly easy but not terrible. I was not at all satisfied with the pump, which was inadequate for the size of the pool and needed to be replaced. For our own reasons and not because of the quality of the pool, we needed to replace the liner after two seasons and proceeded to have the worst customer experience ordering it from Intex we could have imagined possible. I would strong not recommend this product because if for any reason you need to replace anything that is an Intex part (and anything outside of the steps, pump/filter, or chlorinator are all Intex parts) you will have one heck of a time getting it from them.

N. Wilson: A standard pool of this size needs a pool pump that can cycle the water through at a turnover rate of 32 gpm. This pump only does 13 gpm. We bought a better pump and added a skimmer to it. This whole pool is awesome though especially for the price

adamadam: Site prep is key, I worked on this for two days and was still slightly off and had to make some last minute adjustments. My ground was out of level by 3 inches so I had to dig down some of my footers to make the sides level but got it within one inch in the end. I knocked off one star due to it not coming with a skimmer or sand for the filter. After I dropped $2000 on this kit I was not pleased to be ordering more parts, the sand and skimmer are only $20 ea. but I think it should have come with the kit. The pump is under powered for this size pool but it will work until next year when I'm going to upgrade it. I put it up with help from the wife but it was not in 90 minutes like advertised. Between site prep and filling the pool I took a week off from work. I still have some finish work to do but for now it's up and running for the kids.

D&J Ventures: Initially, I was upset that it was late, but that is a FedEx problem, not the seller. However, upon inquiring, the seller contacted FedEx and reassured me they have it, and it will be there soon. It showed up the next day. Impeccable customer service. As for the quality of the pool . . . it is Intex and it should be fine next summer when it gets set up. Hats off to you!

RBRB: BUYER BEWARE!!!! the ladder only has a 90 day warranty from the purchase date and it WILL RUST NOT SOON AFTER. I have purchased my pool on 4/7/2020 and I have noted rust 5 months later. When I called Intex I was politely told that the warrantee was already expired and that I could purchase another ladder as they had them in stock!! yippee!!! like I would buy another crappy ladder from them. To my surprise I was also told that the ladder is not meant to be left inside the pool as is water resistant not water proof, I asked where was there mention about this in the manual and I was told that it mentioned in the part that refers to safety, I told the agent that they should spell this out as an owner of a household where two 40 year olds live and there are no children nor pets that could accidentally go in the pool and drown there is not reason for me to take the ladder in and out every single time I go in and out of the pool, perhaps it they should have said "remove the ladder as it will rust" then I might have done so to extend its life.

The pool itself it has been otherwise good. The assembly is really easy and the key is to have a level terrain. Do yourself a favor and...

Melinda RewisMelinda Rewis: I’ve had the pool for a month and it has been wonderful.
First, I highly recommend the sand filter as opposed to the regular filter that comes with other pools. It is worth the money. This pool package 18’x9’ came with the sand filter so all the tubing was the correct sizing which was important to me as I don’t want to have to go out and get extra of what I need. I purchased the $5 pool sand at Home Depot (50 lb bag) and had way more than needed. I placed the leftover in a 5 gal bucket with the lid for use when it needs changing out but I don’t see that in the foreseeable future. It was the correct sand needed for this pump and was the best price.
Second, I added the attachable skimmer (separate purchase) that hooks on to the side and it works great with this pool. It was easy to attach and I can add some of the pool chemicals there instead of directly into the pool. I’ve also not noticed any issues with this skimmer being in the way or being moved around like others have noticed.
Third, I took the advise of another reviewer and purchased the padding from harbor freight for under the pool. It is about 8.99 for four pieces that fit together like a puzzle. I...
