    We are going on our third year now with this exact pool. Yes it looks really bad when it bows in but goes away as you fill it. Our back yard is not close to being level rather a hill. We cut into the earth and created a flat spot covered it with paver screening. So far so good. It does get dismantled after every summer it really easy once you get the hang of it. The sand filter and pump works great. Tighten the bolts connecting the pump to the basket housing after every season. They come loose and gasket looses seal. Learned that today. The liner seems tough, the metal poles are holding up. Keep up with chemicals and water crystal clear.
    My wife ordered a battery self cleaning vacuum Aeper Smart for like $250 when we got the pool. Working like a champ drop in for 1hr a day and the pool is spotless. I thought I still had to buy the pole, hose and vac attachment but no need with this Aeper Smart.
    Hope this helps.

    Excellent video. Thanks you. My pool is up now, but still could not find the directions for the filter or ladder so I resorted to looking at the picture on the box. One thing I didn't hear you mention was the Tip in the pool assembly directions, to put Talcum Powder on the poles. I started to do that expecting resistance and quickly stopped when the poles were super easy to thread. Live and learn, but come to find out that it's NOT used for helping threading, it acts like a lube to help the liner twist/adjust on it's own while filling up, especially the last 1/4. Next time, I'll be using it.

    Hi, a lot of people are asking "How big is the area required to level and cover for the pool?' The answer is 28 x 18 feet, to allow 3 feet on each side for the supports, walkway and pump/filter, it's nice to have 3 feet on each side to walk around the pool.

    Do the gray filters on the inside of the pool that you point at minute 8:21 stay in that place pretty much all the time? As in, the only time you would take them out, was if you needed to switch them out for the black plug/stoppers? Thanks so much!! I really appreciate your videos.

      My son was able to unscrew it. I guess my hands were too weak, lol. The chemconnect then screws right on. Also...helps to have pump off. Obvious, I know. Good luck. 😊

      Try going online. I saw some really helpful videos on setting up the filter. The Bestway manual for it is terrible!! Make sure you get sand for pool filter, not industrial sand! Good luck. 😊

    My filter started leaking and I don’t know what to do. Please help. I think I may have connected the hoses wrong because I decided to leave out the heater.

    Subscribed! Thanks for the vids. I have 2 questions. My pump & hoses are connected the same as yours. How do you clean out the filter basket without losing a ton of water? There's no shutoff valve so the water just keeps pouring out, which also makes it impossible to get the lid back on. Second question is about the solar heater. It doesn't seem to do much. I've read reviews where people say it makes their water very warm. We've had 7 days of 30+ degree weather and it has made no effect on the temperature of the water. Thanks.

      Your pool should have come with some plugs you can put on the outlet ports from the pool to stop the water.
      The solar heater does help if in direct sun for hours a day.

      One more question - I don't think I backwashed my sand filter long enough when I set it up. The pool water is constantly cloudy (still is). I backwashed for about 3 minutes and then rinsed for 30 seconds. Now my pressure is high (10psi). Any ideas? Thanks again.

    HELP!! Just got pool all set up and Our sand filter is leaking like crazy around where it’s clamped shut!! Should this be tightened all the way?? (the 2 ends where it’s screwed together). It’s not wanting to tighten completely! Or maybe we have too much sand in the filter? Didn’t think we did! UGGG 🤦🏼‍♀️🤷‍♀️😥

    Hi I want to put my heater and pump at the head oh my pool. Will it still be effective if I purchase longer tubes to achieve this, or does it have to live on the side of the pool. I only have extra space on the end of the pool.

      A longer black tube might make the water warmer since it's going through a longer tube in the heat :)

    Why didn’t you put any support under the straight legs is it not required? We set our up with support there as well but we think maybe we were not supposed to .
