We had one last year. This year we upgraded to something better made. The biggest mistake we made was putting it up ourselves and not getting the land professionally leveled.
The filters that come with the pool as well as the ladder are relatively junky quality. The other challenge is putting up and taking down every year. The liner can shrink, parts break, etc.
however, it’s really fun and a great summer activity, you just need to be prepared for it to require more maintenance than expected snd to be constantly putting money into it.
Here is an example of our first collapsed one, the second smaller one that was better, and finally our third one which is made to last.

Do you have any idea how much it costs to get the land professionally levelled?
