INTEX Ultra XTR 24 ft x 52 in Above Ground Pool Set, Round Swimming Pool with Steel Frame, 2100 GPH Sand Filter Pump, Ladder, Cover, & Ground Cloth

We LOVE this pool. We bought the round 18' x 52" ultra frame pool. It came with a cover, pump, ladder, ground cover and the pool. We bought it in April when there was a deal of the day and Intex pools were 25% off! Plus, we used our Prime card so we got 5% back! I definitely recommend waiting for the price to fall before just buying it because this product has fluctuated in price quite a bit since I started watching it a year ago! Okay now for the details: 1. Pool - super sturdy, heavy liner. You'll definitely need 2 people to move it and set it up. The frame itself is sturdy, but very easy to set up! We were actually impressed with how smoothly the setup process went. It was the easiest part of the whole process. 2. Ladder - slightly narrow and very light. However, after doing some research I found the width of this is fairly common. We plan to upgrade to a safer, heavy duty ladder next year. 3. Pump - took about 30 min to assemble, but is very easy and directions are detailed. It's very easy to use and we love the timer function so we can set it up to turn on/off by itself each day! The pool is super clear too! 4. Cover - this is my biggest complaint about the product. The cover seems to be of good quality, but it will not stay on the pool. It comes with a drawstring type system to hold it on, but even with the slightest wind it blows off. We can't get it tight enough. However, it's not that big of deal because the pool heats up rather quickly in the sun. 5. Ground cover - nice size and it added peace of mind as we set up the liner. *Additional advice - make sure to properly prepare for your pool. We measured, cleared sod, leveled the ground, ran the proper electrical line, and researched the best way to maintain clean water. The research and preparation took much longer than the actual assembling of the pool! I highly recommend this product for the money!

This was a needed upgrade for the kids. We've had a 12'x30" Intex for years, since 2015. That pool actually was pretty durable and just recently started rusting out. I would take it down after summer. Last summer my 13 year old son would stand up and his knees would be above the water line. This year we got this pool and it is a great size for the whole family of 7. It is built just like any Intex pool. They are high quality parts but still inexpensively built. There is no hard metal outside sheet like a traditional pool to protect the liner, but the liner is heavy built. After filling it up there was a small pin hole leak in the pool which I fixed with gorilla clear underwater patch tape. I don't think the pool came with the hole. I'm pretty sure a kid was hitting the pool with something sharp. However there has been no leaks since. My wife and I were concerned about our 18 month old twins climbing the ladder and falling in the pool. Those little guys get everywhere and fast. My daughter suggested taking a step out of the ladder. Which I did. From day 1 both little guys tried to climb the ladder as expected. However after a few failed attempts they have gone all summer without caring to climb up. So a success there. If you're concerned it's an easy free fix. I plan on leaving this pool up and draining down below the skimmer each winter. Hopefully that works out.

Great pool at a great price. Intex makes a quality product. This is my second intex pool. The first one I had for 10 years and it still worked but was looking old.

This is a good pool for the money. Even with small leak. Don't be dissuaded because of the small leak. Just be ready and check as filling for signs of leakage. Overall was is great. Pros: Easy Set up, size, delivery, good pump and filter. Cons: Had a small leak on seam, trying to contact manufacturer or getting support is difficult, no suction side vacuum port, last top rail is a pain, didn't know I needed filter sand until afterwards. Setup: make sure you level the area good. I spent hours leveling because of size and was still off about 2" on one side. I left it because it wasn't bulging. Make sure to have two bags of pool sand filter ready prior to setup or go get while pool is filling. Make sure you start top rail at on point and work around in circular direction clockwise/ counterclockwise do not attach legs until top is complete . Last rail is a pain in the butt even while following the recommendation in directions. Just be patient. I caught the drip leak (video) early while filling and fortunately it was were I could get to it and put pvc glue on seam that sealed the leak. Returning item liked this would be a nightmare after hours of assembly just to disassemble. I would think a credit should be given for leak and couldn't get hold of anyone. Just a return but couldn't get support. Returning was out of the question. Maintenance: I have a pool cleaning service and had all chemicals on hand to treat pool. This made bringing pool chemistry easy for me. I would recommend keeping calcium between 160 to 200. Because you don't want vinyl to harden too much. I have well water low calcium. Mine is at 180. I have a high iron content in my well water. The pump and sand filter did great filtering it and I had to backwash a couple times. However, I don't like that it doesn't come with any kind of suction access for a hose vacuum to get sediment (picture 2) off the bottom. I had to order a battery cordless vacuum to hopefully get sediment off bottom. I cannot even net it with my microfiber net. These pools need and adapter to be able to hook a standard vacuum hose in order to vacuum using pump and filter. The pump and filter are surprisingly good, so far. I was impressed that it wasn't some cheesey pump and filter. It can be set time come on and run for selected number of hours up to 12 hours a day. Has internal clock to run at same time each day. Or can be set to run continuously. I'm excited to use this summer and this 26' is huge. I can swim short laps in it by myself, and is large enough to have several people in it. My family and friends will soon be invited for a BBQ. Make sure that you know the desired size for your area. I have a big yard so this was perfect. Even though a lot bigger than I thought and surprised by size and depth.

Easy to setup. Leveling is the hardest part. The absolute best thing about this pool is how it heats up and retains the heat. My previous 16ft pool would very rarley get to 80 and would normally sit at 75. This pool rarely goes below 80 and sits at 85 most of the time.

The only good thing about the Intex is the actual pool liner and rim and leg system being closed and extremely sturdy. I’ve had several Intex and the pumps are always at least two grades less than what’s adequate to filter your pool whether it be sand or filter. Ladder is garbage. Otherwise the best soft shelled pool out there on the market.

We actually loved the pool and got so much use out of it. It is well-made and worth the money however it did not come with the ground cover. We used sand on the ground prior to setting it up. Without the ground cover, we had a huge issue cleaning up afterwards, as sand was stuck to the bottom of the outside of the pool due to no ground cover being sent. When taking down the pool, this gave us a huge headache when closing up for this season. Other than this, the pool is so worth it. The sides of the pool were at least 5 feet high!

This pool is absolutely amazing! It's huge and just the right size for all of our kids and parents too!! Easy to set up once we had a later of leveled sand and stone down. Just a note, the filter doesn't come with sand. We had to buy two 50lb bags.
