    Just to make it clear, in the thread title is has 12ft x 30'

    This should actually read 12ft by 30"

    sorry to be pedantic but I thought it was a 30ft pool until I had a look.

    id guess that these pools r the same size, they are just measuring them from different places .... ie one is measuring the top opening , the other is measuring the base
    No don't think so as there is the 12' one advertised as well on the other site BUT about £130 so this one seems a good buy.

    I got one of the 10ft ones last year. The kids loved it, but it took 2 -3 hours to fill from a garden hosepipe. We're not on a water meter, so can't advise on cost.

    I was going to suggest that you should chuck in the toaster to warm the water up, but then realised that people may do this!!

    PLEASE KEEP ELECTRICAL APPLIANCES AWAY FROM WATER

    Just to let you know, although it is still a good buy, it can actually be bought for £159 with free delivery from here.

    Thing is now to try and find a cover for it, because being on a water meter I certainly wouldn't want to empty it on a daily basis.

    Also can anyone tell me what the pump does and do you need any chemicals for it.

    Thanks

    P.S. Just realised that if you scroll down on that page on above link, they do a cover for £27.99, you would have to pay delivery though as its under £50
    £2.00 Savers Club = £34.00 So Far

    + however may £2 coins I have saved in my Terramundi since 2000.

    Terramundi weighs 8lb 5oz

    Well I just imagined myself on my patio watching the TV from the pool so had to buy one :)

    They also do a cover and extra filters fairly cheap as well but they aren't in stock.

    Thanks john :D
