"I bought this for my five year old daughter and her playmates for the summer. I liked this pool because of the size, enough for 4-6 kids to play in, and the depth, all the kids could easily stand up. Even adults could comfortably sit on the bottom and be submerged up to their shoulders. I was also thrilled with the idea of the zip-tight cover.

Initially, it was great! Set up was easy and the box included everything. We used to pool daily for hours at a time. Then I realized that the filter replacements were not available locally. After weeks of calls back and forth to Little Tykes, and several fruitless leads, I finally had to buy a completely new filter system with cartridges that could be replaced locally. This delay made for lengthly daily pool cleanout that should have been done by the filter system that came with the pool. Once the replacement system was in place, the pool cleared up again, but then the cover started shredding. Within a month or so, the cover was useless and we had to cut it off and throw it away.

Midway through the summer, the pool began to bulge on two sides, making it now an oval shape and leaving a dangerous lip on the two long sides that kids could become trapped under. No matter how much we filled or drained the pool, we could not safely eliminate this problem. Shortly after that, it developed leaks on one of the ends around the clear window, and that's when we drained it and threw it away. Little Tykes never did resolve the lack of filter replacements issue for us despite many, many calls. Between the poor quality of the pool and the lack of concern that we were happy with the product, I will not purchase another pool from Little Tykes."

Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
