Gonna start filling mine up now in the hope of at least one sunny day this year. I rekon by mid august it should be full (just need to scoop out the ten tons of dead insects!). :rotfl:

it also doesnt come with a ladder, so thats something else you would need to buy - cant see anyone being able to get in or out easily otherwise

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

welcome to MSE, BeelzebubUk. Hope you have fun with your new pool watching TV

I bought a pool very simular to this one last year. It's brill! All the neighbours were envious :rotfl: . It's really easy to set up, although the ground does need to be fairly level for the pool to fill up evenly. I found it's best to leave the hose pipe on overnight to fill the pool up. Once they have been filled up the water will only last a couple of days before it goes all slimey, you can buy chemicals to treat the water (which is a better option if you are on a water meter like me). When you put the cover on the pool it helps keep the water warm.

Hope you all enjoy your pools.

After all this pool talk. I can't wait to get mine.

Is it big enough to house a sealion like Terry Nutkins did?

I bought the same pool en France last year for about the same price in Carrefour and it is an excellent buy. We only ran the pump overnight to clear the water. We used chlorine additive as it's supposed to keep the water fresh for longer. This was a few quid for a bottle that will last years.

Filling and emptying takes quite some time - over 4 hours to fill from my UK mains. I'd leave it up on the lawn for about 4 - 5 days max to avoid lawn damage, then empty it and move to refill. The chlorine has by then lost it's bite and will not affect vegetation.

As mentioned, level ground is essential as you only find out some way through the filling process that it is going lopsided.

This last thing you need is a lopsided pool and having to swim up hill all the time.

Thanks to the OP. Just ordered as watching TV from the patio seems a great idea especially if it's warm weather during Wimbledon. The del comes to £6 making it £66 inc VAT.

No garden, no heaven and can't swim.
Can i have it in my living room?. Does fit there
Can you give me the right hight, depth.......etc of it?.

An opportunity to ask a friend (Female) to teach me a few lessons.
I'll put some chairs and it will be near the kitchen so i can host my visitants there and turn it to another living room.
In the End believe me i'm just a dreamer,Gazing through the window at the world outside,I dream my life away
I dream of better days.
