I am about to get this a cheaper one for 130. I had the cheaper one with a ring and cats keep scratching the ring so it tore. Can't keep um out strays. Do you think the material could take cats scratching it?
@@freedomfighter5845 Yes I would get this one
Absolutely love the pride you take on your set up … way to go sta y happy !
hey! thanks!!
I bought this same pool in October 2021 for $78 so summer of 2022 was my first summer to use it. It is absolutely worth every penny I spent for it. Yes it is only 30" deep but all I do is float in it or sit on pool noodles. I bought a heavy duty plastic step stool to get in because I am only 5'1". Great for a few friends sit around in and cool off and have a good time. I am draining it right now to put away for winter as I am in STL and the weather has cooled off and pool season is over. Thanks for the links to the extra items!

We had a 15 ft. It was just a little too big. Fun forvteenagers during lockdown because they really could get wild and have fun however it was a beast to clean every day and it got cold easily if the weather turned chilly. We live in southern MN. I got the o e you have ordered, I think it will stay a little warmer, be a little easier to keep Clean, and be a little more easy to get in and out for grandma or aunties because 4 feet ladder vs this shorter ladder. Way safer. And we had same pins as you issue, not a biggie. Not much rust like you. Just decided to get the same brand but your size!!! Yay!!! Happy summer on the way!
Thank you and God bless
@BigBudde update, we love it! It stays so much warmer than the 15' × 4'. I put it together by myself with hardly a hand from my husband. The lady I gave our old pool to says her kids love it but it's too cold for her. I told her the kids can swim at her house then and mommas at my warmer pool! I bought a nice solar cover for it too, which fits perfectly.
Good review, thank you!

Loved the video, can you link where you got the chorine dispenser. I don’t see it in the description
Hi, I believe I just got it from Walmart. Similar to this one:

I had one of these pools at my old house and i'm shopping around again to get one. Im trying to decide if I want to buy the same (regular) or the prism. I think I paid about $100 many years ago and only used the pump it came with, but I also added the salt system and loved it! Unfortunately the salt system has changed, hopefully it works as well as the original version. I put a heavy duty tarp underneath and then sand. I also added small pavers and buried them in the sand to stand the legs on for more durability. I also sprayed every piece of the frame with clear rustoleum.
Did you ever have a problem with the pump that came with it? & did the salt keep it clean? Going to purchase tonight, thanks :)
@@allysongay8874 I had the pool for only 2 years and then sold the house but I never had any problem with the pump. The salt system definitely kept it clean and you dont get that chlorinated smell like you would with tablets. I wish I had thought of it sooner and left just the pump with the pool and took the salt system with me!
We just got the Prism one and I like it a lot. maybe even better. I will do a comparison video soon! Buy on Amazon.
thank you for your comment. be sure to subscribe!
@@BigBudde I already bought the prism, same size! Got mine online at Walmart, made sure it was sold by them and not a 3rd party since they have a longer return policy. The pool isn't up yet, I'm in the process of leveling the ground, hopefully it will be ready this weekend. Looking forward to your video!
@@SonyaColors how does it stand up with the rust treatment?
great review
Thank you!!
Great video, thanks! About how much sand did you put down?
A Lot. Hard telling exactly how much. You want to cover the entire ground though.
thank you for your comment. be sure to subscribe!
Can you do a video of everything you needed on upgrading the pump filter.
sorry not right now. but I do have links to buy stuff in the links
Woohoo nice!
Oh yeah!
There's different types of bladder pools
The higher in ones are legacy and splash
Those have a 30-year warranty
And you can build full decks around them and winterize without ever having to take them down
I have a legacy I live in Michigan It's never been taken down It's been up for 18 years

I live in ky. We put a pool up in 1999. We took it down in 2017. Someone else put it back up. Only thing we did was replace the liner every 5 years. And we replaced the pump around year 15. I'm getting ready to put one of these up as I have small kids and want something small. But I loved my childhood pool. Highly recommend spending the extra. I think we paid 2500 for a 24x52 pool in 1999. Definitely got the money out of it.
Lol getting one! Nice video, munes coming without the pump but the upgraded pump you listed is rated for a much bigger pool, everything fit right as far as connection sizes etc.?! Thanks
We just ordered everything he had in this video including the upgraded pump , I’ll keep you updated should be here Friday !
So connection sizes were to big , we went ahead and did some searching in comments and a lot of people suggested getting a pair of intex 1.25” to 1.5” type b hose adapters so we did and also had to her some plunger valves since they were not included with the pump which we didn’t know until we went to set the pump up , it does say on the link he posted they aren’t included but I didn’t look through all that . So waiting for those to come in by tomorrow and hopefully everything should work and fit properly.
Everything’s working good 👍🏼
Yes! Works fine. I believe you just need the "intex 1.25” to 1.5” type b hose adapters" look on Amazon.
thank you for your comment. be sure to subscribe!
Cant wait to swim!
Weeeeeee
very helpful video. I am not too tall. Is it possible to swim in this shallow pool?
YES!!
I live in STL too, do you put your pool away for the winter?
Yep. sure do. take it all down, clean it all out, store in garage for the winter.
Thanks for the comment! Please subscribe if you haven't yet!
GO CARDS!
I had read that for a 12x30 intex pool and upgrading pump you have to purchase 1.25 to 1.5" type B adaptor? Is there anything else that I would need in order to set up? Thanks!
Yes. You can get the adapters off Amazon
Thats all you should need
Be sure to like and subscribe!
We just bought one. But after reading your review I want to buy the new filter. Did you have to make any adjustments for the new filter or cut anything?
Yes. 1.25 to 1.5" inch adapters. Look on Amazon!

@@BigBudde great video. I have the same pool. I just bought a INTEX 28635EG C1500 Krystal Clear Cartridge Filter Pump for Above Ground Pools, 1500 GPH Pump. Do you have a video showing how to change it?
Did u have to do any electrical things to install like separate power sources??
No, we did not
i like this❤❤❤❤
@@user-pw8vu4xv7n Hey thanks, God bless!
Just one of these, Do you need a ladder to get in and out? Thanks
Nope! No ladder needed
Did you have to buy adapters when going from a smaller hose to a bigger one?
Yes. Amazon. They are cheap!
Be sure to SUBSCRIBE for future video updates from us =)
when you bought the upgraded pump what gallons per hour pump did you buy?
Hi! I ordered THIS ONE on Amazon:
Intex 28633EG Krystal Clear Cartridge Filter Pump for Above Ground Pools, 2500 GPH Pump
www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005QIYMNM/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&th=1
What kind of treatment/chemicals should I use for this pool? I have the same one
Hey! I have a video specifically for this. Easy pool care in under 2 minutes: th-cam.com/video/BpaN37IIFgA/w-d-xo.html
Do you need a ladder to get in it? Or is it easy enough to just step over the edge?
You just step over. even my wife (5'3") can step over! If you have kids, you might need to help them in or get a ladder.
wow i like to have that!
You can get one cheap!
Do you vacuum or sweep the pool? We just bought the same pool and wondering if I need to invent in a vacuum or just a brush? or either LOL
Neither. I just rub the bottom with my feet/hands. and I use the net!

Got it today on Intex with $100 off coupon for $149. Figure I will try on a small scale on a small leveled area on my bricks in my yard.
Nice!
How much would you say it costs a month on the electricity bill. Cost of energy in Florida has gone crazy and j know the pump has to run a lot here to stop the algae growing.
I would estimate very little. A/C really costs a lot compared.
the pump on this, running 6 hours a day, is probably less than $20/mo
I got the same pool for my son I don't know anything about pools the water is green now what can I do any helpful info is appreciated. Thank you
Hey! we made a video just for that situation! th-cam.com/video/stlTY9MbJxg/w-d-xo.html
How many 50 lbs bag of sand did you have to use ? Just asking because I just ordered the 12ft intel 30inch pool as well that’s why I’m asking ?
I cant remember. Maybe 10-15?
@@BigBudde sweet ! Thanks 👊🏻
Hello, I hope you can help me, I’m about 5’6, my dad wants to teach me swimming, will this 12 ft pool be enough for me to swim a little from side to side, learning different swimming strokes, breast stroke, backstroke etc?, I’m not trying to swim laps, just for learning basics,
I tried to go through your videos to see how a 6’4(I think that what you said) man swim in this 12 ft pool but I didn’t see any, the pool looks kind of tiny, I would really appreciated it, if you can give me some info, thank you 🙏
Hi,
No. this is not really big enough to "Swim" in or learn to swim. You will need something bigger I would think! I mostly just splash around. not really swimming
Do you take it down during the winter?
Yes, I do =)
thank you for your comment. be sure to subscribe!
When do you have pump running, cost and maintenance?
Excuse me? I am not really understanding your question
@BigBudde when do you usually have pump running.. do you have pump running 24/7, also what's the estimated maintenance cost
Do you leave it up over winter?
No, we take it down. We are in Missouri and it freezes here...

Hey I have a question… I wanna get that pool for my backyard but I don’t have grass in the back will it be able to stand on the floor?
Yes it will

YES
So be careful!!

How tall are you bro? I’ve been looking into this pool but think it might be too small in height lol
I am 6' 4"
Do you take this down during the winter?
Yes, I do
Thanks for the comment. Be sure to subscribe to the channel =)
How do you vacuum stuff off the bottom?
I use a pool net
Are you treating the pool with chemicals or the pump is enough?
Hi, both!
How do you get in and out without some kind of deck? We are in our late 60's so we could not jump over it. We don't have A. C. Our home is not suitable for AC without putting in Central heat and air which is impossible. Its an older home. Summer is beautiful and unbearable. I would love to have a small pool if I believed we would not be replacing it Every year!! Where can I find information about the Intex pool???
Hey! thanks for the comment! Our 'Mama Carol' is 71 years old and she does great just stepping in and out of this pool. It's a little bit of a stretch, but she does fine!
Check out THIS VIDEO of Mama Carol and it shows how she gets in and out! -- th-cam.com/users/shortsoBPpEfbUQcU
BUY LINKS for the pool, filter, and all the accessories can be found in the video description! 😃
Thank you for information. Have a splashing day 😁😁
Do you take it down each season?
Yes. I am in St. Louis, MO
Recommended chemicals?
Here -- I did a whole video on the chemicals!

What's the difference between the grayish version of this pool and this one.
Good question! The grey "Prism" one is the newer one.
Stay subscribed to my channel, I am going to do a "Comparison" video on them both!
@BigBudde Sounds 👍. Just bought the Grey prism one. I set it up. It's only problem is I didn't level the ground to well It's 1 inch higher on one sid. I will need to install it better next year.
