User Submitted 15' x 36" Easy Set Pool Set (with Filter Pump and DVD) ReviewsDate: 2008-10-06 My kids love this pool! We love this pool. Is very easy to set up and is ready to use right away. We had a 12' pool last year and decided we'd like a bigger one, so we bought the 15' for next season. The maintenance is super easy and the pool stays clean with just a little chemical treatment twice a week and the use of a cover at night. My boys (7 & 8) have taught themselves to snorkel in the pool. They love it! And so do some of the neighbor kids. They're coming over often now to get in too, especially when they hear my kids squealing from several houses away! Date: 2007-06-07 should read "good for one season only" my kids loved this pool- the first year. tried to set this up the following year only to find hole after hole in the air tubing. after the 5th patch I now cannot find the last of the leaks and believe me i tried. the smallest blade of dried grass or fine pebble can wreak havoc on the thin air tube lining during storage. for sure, this pool is a one time use only toy, don't think too far in future with this one. by the way, if the ground is not perfectly level, enjoy the deep end! Date: 2006-07-09 Fun Times The pool is super easy to set up and my kids really like the it. While they may already be 15 and 12 years old, they are excited to cool off in the pool. The younger kids next door have enjoyed it too. Since we live in an area where outdoor pools are only practical for a short time, this is a great alternative and will be easy to store for next year. My only concern is that if a child is tool small to "step" over the top of the pool, they may fall in. Date: 2006-06-24 Don't buy expecting long life... We bought this pool and had a LOT of fun with it the first year. However, our cat, or neighborhood cats would jump up on the side to get a drink from the dew collected on the cover and they put all kinds of small holes in the inflatalble ring. So many that it was unrepairable. So, if you have cats around....beware. Date: 2006-06-08 Beware the hot sun. I live in Phoenix, which has a habit of getting over 110 on a regluar basis in the summer. After having this pool for a few days, the first thing I noticed was that the water quickly became too hot to swim in (mine got to just over 100 degrees). But the next problem was the dealbreaker. With the sun beating down on the pool, the outside of the PVC lining and the floating ring got extremely hot to the touch. After a few days, the seams began to pull apart on the side of the pool that was facing the sun, as if the adhesive used to bond the seams was failing. Eventually, the pool burst open. So in theory, this pool is a good value. The filter worked well (you can buy replacement filters at walmart or target), and it was easy to set up. The water depth is usually 6-9 inches less than the stated depth of the pool, and the actual diameter is actually a few feet less than the stated diameter (the pool tapers inward toward the top). Just beware of the sun!
