Intex4 Foot x 12 Inch Miniature Durable Vinyl Outdoor Above Ground Frame Kiddie Swimming and Teaching Baby Pool for Ages 3 and Up, Blue

This is the best pool I’ve bought EVER, for my own toddlers and now for my grandkids. I’ve had it for years. Quality is amazing, it will never puncture. Also no more blowing up a pool and deflating. Those days are gone. I also put a Playschool slide into it. All kids have 💕❤️ it. And super easy set up and take town. This pool will last forever until they outgrow it. My next pool will be another Intex pool.

Ease of use:Easy to put together and take down. Also fast and easy water release and cleaning.Fun for kids:It was great for a 1 year old and a 3 year old . Foldability:Easy to put up and maintain. Easy to fold and put away.Water capacity:Perfect water capacity for the ages of 1 and 3.

Great pool. Easy to put together and easy to store. We have 2. One for water and one as a sensory pool. Kids even climb on the sides to jump in and it stays solid.

Finally had the chance to use this for my dogs as it’s been raining almost every day once summer hit. Great size and my dogs enjoyed it. Seemed thick enough but throughout time and use I’m sure it’ll tear but for now, it looks durable. Folding it isn’t too difficult as long as you thoroughly dry it after use. No inflation needed. As for setting it up, it was a bit difficult. You need a bit of strength and force to attach and connect them. Since this isn’t a one touch pop up pool, it requires a bit of labor

I was skeptical but this was easy and quick to set up and is perfect for my 2 year old and me! Great quality ! We love it so much! We are ordering a bunch of accessories

This makes an excellent pool for our two ducks, due to the height of one foot, and it being 4 foot square. My husband plumbed it so we can empty it every day and refill it easily with a hose. The corner bottom drain plug that comes with it is very small and weak, so replacing it was a must. This pool has withstood a lot from us as we built our duck coop around it, stepping inside it, scrubbing it, etc. It seems pretty durable, but we did go ahead and buy a spare, since our entire coop design kind of depends on this pool. The ducks love it! It was easy to put together and is pretty high quality, except for the small drain plug on the corner. So far we highly recommend!Update: July 2, 2017This pool is still in great shape and easy to clean (with vinegar). We ended up redoing the drain plug with a better drain system. It didn't tear when we took off the old one and it withstood all of the twisting of the new plug to get it setup. The ducks have access to their pool 24/7 and love it! We empty it daily and despite hard playing by two happy ducks, this pool keeps going strong. (Knocking on wood).

UPDATE: 2 summers now we've had this and it's been excellent. No rips, tears, pulled seams, etc. I have knee issues, so when I sit in it to play with the dogs, I do use a corner to help me stand back up. Right at the corner it has been sturdy enough to feel confident it won't break on me (just be careful you don't wiggle it too much while using it to help you stand, that may make a difference).Both our dogs are medium-large-ish. Both are Plott Hound mixes, but one is shorter and solid (mixed with Staffordshire), about 38 lbs, and the other is taller and lanky (mixed with b.lab) about 50 lbs. The taller one likes to run over the pool.. as in she'll be running in the yard towards the pool, and run right thru it out the other side. On her way in she makes it a kind of pounce to splash more water. It's really cute, but I mention because I think it speaks to durability. Running thru like she does, her nails could easily tear the material if it was cheap, and this thing has stood up so well to that I've been impressed.We've had no leakage issues either with the material or the drain. It's still functioning well (I do empty and change the water about once a week in the summer). So even more happy with this than we were in the beginning.--------------------------------------Original review:Ours arrived quickly; it was yellow, not the blue pictured, but I like that better anyway. We have 2 doggies and got it for them. Husband put it together by himself with no issues, but he said the corners can be a little stubborn. The material is excellent - not too slippy when I splash around with the doggies in it, and it doesn't feel like their nails are gonna be a problem with it.We put it on our back deck since our yard is all a slight slope, but having read other reviews, we took the precaution of situating the drain at a space in the boards. It drains slower than it might on land, but that's not a problem for us.It's pretty sturdy - I wouldn't suggest an adult use the frame for getting up/down, but I feel quite confident that a child below age 8 or so could safely use it for support. It's also got a padded sleeve you put on the PVC before you run the actual pool material on it, makes it a little softer for children.We've only had it a week so I can't speak to its lifespan but it doesn't feel like cheap materials at all.
