5 Stars
Purchased end of July 2020 - used 3 out of the 4 summers and still going!
This pool has been great for my mental health during COVID and beyond. I also purchased a salt water pump so I would not have to use chlorine. Just wish the summers in NC were a little longer. I only get to swim about 3 months - June through August. If the water is not up to around 85 degrees F I get a little chilly. My only complaint (or my son's and his wife) is that we have to take it down and put it up every year. I think that's why is has lasted a little longer than some. But they put it up for me so they are not too happy about it. Could not put it up one year b/c we purchased an out building and the pool would have been in the way to get the building to the correct spot. My luck was that they delayed delivery but that's ok, it's up this year and it is awesome! The Intex Krystal Clear Saltwater System with E.C.O. (Electrocatalytic Oxidation) for up to 15000-Gallon Above Ground Pools, 110-120V with GFCI may have gone out but they are less than half of what they were in 2020 so not too bad. This year was the toughest but probably user issues. I put too much salt in this year. The power stake went out and the outside back yard electrical receptacle did too. The pool itself has not been an issue. I leveled the ground a little better this year and the water level is better. It is so nice to jump in and cool off on a hot summer day. Hope it lasts a few more years. Purchased late July 2020 and so glad I did!!!

Got this for the wife & I, 66 & 64 years young. We received the pool on 8/4/22 but were told it would be delivered between the 5th & 15th. "Pleasantly surprised". We also ordered the pool maintenance tools. Everything arrived in a very timely manner, undamaged and nothing missing. "Pleasantly surprised". The wife and I set up the pool on a concrete slab surrounded by the lawn. We put down an extra tarp, then a painters drop cloth and then the the tarp that came with the pool. Nice and protected bottom. While assembling the pool we found it easier to insert the corner pieces as we went around. It held together better for us. Everything was straight and level as we started filling the pool. In the meantime, we got all the pump pieces and assembled all that well before the water level got near that level. We had no problems with the liner creasing or folding. The only concern I had was as the pooled filled higher and higher, the side frames continued to bow in more and more. Looked very awkward and not right. I was afraid that the curvature would dislodge the joints. But as it got full of water the bow in the side frameworks got less and less. There still is a bow... acceptable...but nothing like there was. We were in the pool enjoying it as it filled up. It took 7 hours to fill. Day 2: the pool made it through the night. I turned the pump back on and we are back to enjoying it in this Reno, NV heat. Very "Pleasantly surprised"!

This pool was easy to set up with 2 people. It’s the perfect size and depth for my husband, myself and my 7 year old. I’m very impressed with the pool cover that it came with. The thin tarp that it comes with that goes under the pool isn’t very good but that doesn’t really effect our review of the pool as the pool sits on foam squares that are on top of a cement slab. The pool seems to be made of good quality materials. This family is a fan and would definitely recommend to others!

Perfect for what I needed it for. Arrived promptly and without any issues. Installation took 2 hours by myself.would recommend a bigger filter than the one that comes with it. I opted for a sand filter that cycles almost the entire pool every hour. Helps with maintenance and reduces the need for constant trips to the pool store

Bought to an upgarde/replace a smaller round 12 foot in intex pool after 4 years. Set-up took 2.5 hours with my 10 yo son, full fill was about 7 hours. After a month of use, no complaints or problems, kids enjoy it! Didnt even bother to set up pump that came in box. I recommend buying an upgraded sand pump and accessories, I hard plumbed and made other modifications (purchased for and done on previous pool) (Pump in picture Game 4170, skimmer hayward) It is a scary feeling putting a knife to a brand new liner but 100% worth it. I plan to convert to a salt pool in the future.
Overall Intex has a quality product!

Size: 16.5' x 9' x 48"Pattern Name: OvalVerified Purchase
This review is based on having the pool up for only a month. Pool is relatively easy to assemble. Directions are adequate but not great. Liner seems sturdy though the multiple seams do tend to collect dirt. Other reviewers have had very negative observations of the pump. After a month it seems to me adequate but it is getting louder and I am shopping for a replacement. A lot depends on how much the pool is used and how clean surrounding environment is. The pump has a timer option I like where it runs set number of hours each day. if you have active kids or larger adults using the pool plan on replacing the ladder within a couple months. Power cord has built in GFCI that seems very, sensitive- probably a good thing though annoying because it seems to randomly trip even with nobody around.

I wanted to rate the pool a 3 because of what it isn't but it is a decent pool so went with 4 stars. But beware of the below negatives I found for my situation.

Things I don't like:
- I don't think I would buy this pool again solely because of how it is supported. The numerous support feet stick well out from the pool and people are constantly banging toes and tripping over the supports. Also there is a plastic-welded strap from bottom of supports to bottom of pool that is natural for people to step on but not strong enough to withstand the weight of a person plus weight of pool. I marked durability down a star for this reason.
- Round vs oval shaped: In my case oval is only shape that would fit my situation but if I had the room I would go to round next time. Nothing wrong with oval but for a bunch of kids splashing around I think round would have more utility. Personal opinion only and not a factor in my star rating for this review.
- There is not much useful guidance in directions on preparing surface to set pool on. This is my first pool and after hours of web research it seems to me surface prep advice from the manufacturer is a primary requirement. Intex doesn't provide much help. I have pool on a large concrete patio and the amount of work, crushed rock, retaining edges for the rock, etc to prepare an already sturdy, smooth concrete slab with slight drainage slope was surprising. Very pleased with end result (pool perfectly level and rock solid installation) but 2 guys much of a day to prep existing concrete surface and erect the pool was not expected.

Do yourself a favor and set the pool on something sturdy and kind to feet such as outdoor carpet or in my case I used that 1/2" blue foam insulation board at Lowes taped together with gorilla tape. Glad I did and next year think I will additionally cover the foam with outdoor carpet and extend carpet well out from pool because even with the foam, walking on or hitting the bottom of pool feels kind of firm. (yeah I know a person over 60 yrs old should probably should not be demonstrating for grandchildren cannon balls into a 48" deep pool but what can I say...).
- There is no guidance for first time pool owner to navigate the seemingly complex areas of pool supplies, pool chemistry, maintenance equipment, etc, etc, etc. I'd say that one should budget at least 50% of pool cost for all the "stuff" a pool owner should probably have or do. Site prep could easily add another 50-100% and if you get into buying a decent ladder or a better pump/filter/salt purifier setup the cost quickly escalates even further.

The pool is great! We are looking forward to using it for the rest of the summer. I was difficult to get the pool delivered, but the customer service rep worked tirelessly on solving the delivery problem. Thanks!
