User Submitted 8' x 30" Easy Set Pool Set (with Filter pump and DVD) Reviews (cont...)Date: 2005-09-11 Lasted 3 weeks. This was a great pool for my 5 year old daughter to play in. She also was learning how to swim, so it was perfect. The problem was that within a week it started to roll to one side and this was on our flat concreted patio with ground cover down to prevent scratching the pool plastic. As soon as it started to roll and the bottom was exposed to pressure it started leaking. For the first few days it was just a little bit and then suddenly it just ripped a seam open into a 6 inch hole that drained the whole pool in about 5 minutes. Do not buy this pool. It is great for a week or two and then it is gone. Date: 2005-08-22 It's just a blow-up pool OK, the filter is lousy, but consider what it is...a BLOW-UP Pool! My daughter is three years old, and this is perfect for her to gain confidence without having to wear floatation devices, plus...it's been one doozy of a hot summer and this functions for the occasional cool off. Expectations should not be high. After all, you can empty it, deflate it, and store it in the garage. Great for what what it is. Date: 2005-07-13 Best $60 I ever spent! Last year I bought an Aero pool that was not worth the $100+ I spent for it, and was a huge pain to boot. This year I bought this pool, and yes it takes more than 30 minutes to put together, yes 2 people to set up is better than one, and yes I have to air up the ring pretty much before each use. But you get terrific value for price. My 8 year old, 6 year old and 4 year old and up to 2-3 friends have all used it. They're even able to swim under water which is great. And it's terrific for kids learning to swim. It's not as great as an inground pool, but for someone with a small backyard, it's great. My kids want to swim every day now. I don't usually write reviews but considering the price and the use we're getting out of it, it's great! Date: 2004-08-10 Disappointed We bought this pool and really enjoyed it, at least for 3 weeks. One morning, we found the pool deflated and water all over the yard, however, the top ring was still inflated and there was about 7 inches in the bottom of the pool. So, that ruled out a punctured hole in the bottom. Also, every other day I had to fill the top ring with air, which always seemed to seep out. As for the filter, it didn't really catch any of the bugs, etc. Date: 2004-08-01 You get what you pay for... I bought the 12 ft pool on sale for $78. All the filter seems to do is just move the water around, I really don't think it cleans it. It certainly doesn't catch any of the bugs. And I have grass growing up through the vinyl in mine. It should have included a ground cover. So much for the super-tough vinyl. Bottom line is, I don't think it was worth it.
