Bestway Steel Pro MAX 10 Foot x 30 Inch Round Metal Frame Above Ground Outdoor Backyard Swimming Pool Set with 330 GPH Filter Pump

I’ve been into pools since 1999, so I know a thing or two—and I have to say, this Bestway Steel Pro MAX 12' x 30" Above Ground Pool is a solid 10/10. The setup was super easy. With two people, it took about 45 minutes from start to finish, and everything went together smoothly with clear instructions.The size is perfect for families or just cooling off on hot days, and the frame feels sturdy and well-made. The depth is just right at around 26.5 inches of water—great for kids and adults alike.Now, the one thing to note: the pump that comes with it isn’t strong enough. If you're just dipping your toes into pool ownership, it might do for the short term, but I definitely recommend upgrading to a more powerful pump for better water circulation and filtration. As someone who’s been around pools for decades, I can confidently say a stronger pump will make a world of difference in keeping the water clean and clear.Overall, awesome pool for the price, easy setup, and a summer must-have—just plan to invest in a better pump!

Nice size pool, Fun for family, not a long arrival wait time, everything included was simple to put together for pool to work properly!

I love this swimming pool. I have RLS, and kicking around in the water really helps. Plus, I've always loved swimming but will never be able to afford an inground pool. So I bought this pool for me. I'm 59 years old and it took me less than an hour to set it up. It's a nice way to cool down in the Florida heat. I like that the frame is made up of a very durable plastic. My old pool had a metal frame and it rusted after 2 years. The plastic frame will last much longer. I know that many people will buy this pool for their kids, but I gotta say, it's the perfect size for adults too. In fact, I'm the only one using it. The water is deep enough to kick around in it, and it's super relaxing just floating around on an air mattress. It's big enough, but not too big, so it's easy to keep clean. My one issue is the pump. After just one day, we noticed that it's leaking.The pool is great, but the pump is not. At any rate, the pool is worth the money. I love it.

I have to agree with all the other comments, this is overall a great pool! Easy set up, perfect size especially for small backyards. My one complaint is the pump size. You can tell it is too small for the size of the pool because of the sounds it makes. I’m going to upgrade to a larger pump and hope for a cleaner pool.

We really enjoyed our summer in our pool. Easy to installed. Perfect size for our yard. Works great.

The pool is amazing the quality is great the setup is easy, the filter however sucks. If you plan on using the pool a lot I recommend stepping up to a bigger pump filter setup. It will cost as much as the pool but you will have a much better time with your poolMake sure you put it on very level ground or till and level it yourself, the liner is extremely durable but buy a high quality pool mat to put under it. You will thank me.

We've used this pool for one summer now and the first thing to not is the pump is TRASH. I luckily already had a skimmer pump that I ended up putting on this pool which cleared it up immediately, but did require cutting a hole in the side of the pool. The pump that comes with it did nothing to filter out anything or circulate the water hardly at all which even shocking and adding chlorine wasn't enough to keep algea from growing/staying in the water even constantly running and with a brand new dilter cartridge, so it was basically unusable until getting a better pump/filter. I'm also a bit skeptical about the size as one I had from a different brand previously was definitely several inches deeper than this one claims to be even though both were advertised to be the same depth. But, that being said, with proper maintenance this pool should last a few summers and my family of 4 are all about to swim and enjoy it together, it filled in just a few hours, the liner seems pretty durable, and the frame (while not entirely metal as the name suggests) is decently sturdy enough . If you like me are looking for a budget friendly pool for your family, I would recommend this one as long as you are prepared to also get a better pump as well.

Pool is working out great. Easy set up. Does leak a little at the hose connection. Will need a bigger filter. If anybody knows what size adaptor I would need and style to adapt a sand 1.5 hose filter, that would be a big help.
