Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

This pool is exactly what I was expecting. Yes it's small, pretty much for a quick soak on a hot day. You can sit on your butt and the water is to your sholders/neck. Dont let the other reviews fool you in saying its difficult to set up or terrible after set up you just have to do it correctly and its great. 1. We put our pool on our cement patio and put a tarp (12x12) under it for extra toughness for the bottom. It could just as easily go in the grass with or without a tarp. I just felt better with the tarp incase of small rocks and such. 2. We filled up the blow up ring via a small compressor. I can see this being harder without a compressor but a hand bicycle pump would do the same thing. 3. We put the pump attachments together according to the picture directions. Read a little and look at the photos. Very simple directions. 4. We started filling the pool. AND THIS IS WHAT IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT!!! Have patience and stand there the whole time for atleast the first 1/4 of it filling. During this time, stretch the bottom out flat as it slowly fills. Yes, put your hands in the water, grab the bottom and pull it in whatever direction is needed to smooth out the wrinkles. You will not beable to get the wrinkles out of the bottom unless you do this as its filling. DONT BE LAZY put this tiny bit of work in at the beginning of it filling and you'll have a totally flat bottom pool unlike the whiners in the other 1 and 2 star reviews. 5. We let it fill to the fill line on the inside of the blow up pool ring. It took about 2 hrs in total from start to finish. 6. Cleaning is easy. I got a small net from the dollar store to scoop out anything that falls in. I also got a kitty litter tub to rise feet off before stepping in. We put about a cup of chlorine in every 2-3days. It stays clean. I also put a pop up canopy (12x12) over it so I dont get sun burned but that's your preference 10/10 I would recommend and do not regret it whatsoever.
