(More customer reviews)You can't get more for your money than one of these pools, period. If it lasts 2 or 3 seasons so what. I replaced an Aqua Leasure after 2 or 3 with an Intex 15X42. Both worked very well. The sides of the Intex are a little more upright so you have more usable area inside the pool which I like. This makes the sides a little less stable but even with 9 year olds jumping over the sides you don't lose any or hardly any water unless they a couple of them lay on the upper air ring and try to push it down. The Intex and Aqua are both very sensitive to level ground. Mine is on the patio concrete which slopes away from the house for rain run off purposes. Even this causes considerable uneveness in the water level. I added some carpet pieces to the "low side" just under the outside edge. Helped a little I think. Again, so what. Water is full on one side a few inches low on the other. No one but me even notice. But don't try to set up on more slope than I'm discribing. Filter works fine. Skimmer pole is very sturdy. Ladder works fine and does not rust for some reason like the Aqua Leisure did. I use clorine strips to test water. Just dip and read. Very easy. Be sure to keep clorine level up. I added clorine after tester showed white or none. Wrong, add before clorine goes to zero level or you will get dark emerald green swamp water as a surprise one day. Triple clorine or so solved problem. Leslie pools were very helpful and refused to sell me more expensive fix I was demanding."Just try the extra clorine first, sir". Intex comes with nice cover too. Helps keep pool clean, but if dirty you can do two things. Put garden hose in pool with a weight on the end and run water to fill the hose. Turn off and remove from hose bib and take quickly to lower ground setting up a siphon. Get in pool and "vacume" up the dirt with slow even strokes. On a hot day, if you like to keep a clean pool, very pleasurable job. Oh, before the vacume get in and run around the pool creating a spinning vortex or what ever you call it. In 30 minutes or more the dirt will consentrate on ridges in the bottom. (hard not to have some)
Setup is of course much longer than the 15 minutes or so advertized. The reason is because it is a little hard to spread the pool out evenly. The warmer the weather the better to soften the plastic. And once you get a inch of wate in the pool it becomes VERY heavy and hard to change. Use the plastic tarp for sure so you don't slide the pool on concrete or something abrasive. Infact try not to slide the pool at all. Lift and fold instead. I had to move the pool once this year (Wifes idea)folded and placed on piano mover (lowboy with casters). Left in the sun and when I went to move it, sides had fallen down and were scraping on concrete for about 10 ft of travel. Yup, three holes.(Wifes fault) Used the hole patch stuff from the inside and no leaks. Here in southern Cal I keep it up for maybe 4 month per year. After that kids don't seem to use it and water is not near as warm. My child loves it, neighbors love it. Neighbor put in pool so it got lots less use this season but they still come over to both houses. I paid $210 at Leslies Pools in Fontana CA location (big selection)Have seen them less and 50% higher other places. These are real pools by the way. You'll want to spend a little time with them cleaning and checking clorine, using filter etc. But after 4 months my pool is in the garage waiting for next year and there "real" pool is in need of a pool boy all year with all the other costs. Ok, their pool looks nicer with all that concrete and faux rock and plants and lighting. But for $200 bucks this pool is a deal. If I have the time I'll try to upload some video later.
