Bestway Steel Pro MAX 12' x 30" Metal Frame Above Ground Pool Set w/ Filter Pump

The pool arrived earlier than expected, which was good. All parts were there and went up fairly easy and quick. We already had a sand pump, so my husband did a little modification and hooked the sand pump up to it. All in all, everything is good. The kids love it. We did purchase a ladder for them to get in and out.

The pool arrived mid day the day after i ordered it. It was packaged securely and all the parts present. The instuctions were clear and it took my daughter and I only about an hour all together to completely assemble it. That includes unpacking and laying out the pieces. It is secure and actually kind of attractive with the rock print. At 12 feet diameter and 30 inches in depth, it is perfect for my 9 year old grandson. It is just the right size for him to actually swim, not just wade. More than enough room for him to swim and she and I to float. The pump was easy to put together but it mucks up quickly and resets. We are making an effort to skim often and bought a cover. I am also going to put skimmer socks over the pump intakes to catch large debris and let the pump filter the small stuff. We plan to run the pump every night for about 6 to 8 hours and that should make sure all the water circulates once. All in all I think it is a phenomenal deal for the price. We are pleased and I recommend this pool.
