Bestway 56401 Steel Pro Pool | Swimming Pool, Rectangle Above Ground Fast Set Pool, Children’s Detachable Pool, Multiple Sizes, Blue, 221 x 150 x 43 cm

This paddling pool served me well all summer long. It was unfortunately left up and is still surviving despite it being the end of January. I have extremely poor mobility, but was able to erect the pool by myself. I am delighted with it. It feels sturdy. I also find it easier to get in and out of than the pool with an inflatable ring at the top that I had previously. The water comes up to my waist when I'm sitting in it. I often sit and read in the pool on hot days to help keep my lymphoedema under control. I've no complaints. If you want a paddling pool and you have the room for it, this is a good one to get.

Good quality

Great sturdy pool. I set it up myself in 20 minutes, filling it obviously takes longer. It was really easy to set up. The one and only downside is that there is no plug on the bottom, which frankly is a rubbish design. It means you have to take half the leg poles out to lower one side to let all the water flow out. Having said that, you can buy a filter and chlorine floating system if you want to reuse the same water. Even with having no ground plug I still recommend this pool. It is much better than an inflatable because you don't lose 60cm of space with the sides, it is all water which is great for the kids. Plus no annoying re-pumping every couple of days, taking the legs out to let the water flow out is quicker than re-pumping every couple of days anyway. It is very strong and worth the money. Be warned though, big pools are cold! We have a separate hose that we run through the house to fill it from the warm tap (with a hose tap converter) that works a treat!!

Very pleased with this. Big enough for my 10 year old to leap around in or for 2 adults to comfortably stretch out. Seems really sturdy and, thank God, no inflatable parts to get punctures. We have it on top of play tiles on our patio and have seen no leaks despite the abuse our son snd his friends put it through. An excellent purchase- let's hope it survives being packed away for the winter and is still good for next year...

Good value pool

Why did you choose this product over others?: Very disappointing very small upset kids

It's Family size pool, it's value for money. Good quality.

Easy to put together, nice and sturdy. A bit fiddly to take apart.
