Swimming pools are synonymous with fun. We want our hotel to have one when we’re on vacation. We want to lounge beside them on sunny days. And they make a great centerpiece for parties to revolve around. But we don’t love the expense and maintenance of traditional in-ground pools. Installation is a major investment. After that, the chemicals, cleaning out debris, and matters of safety are all ongoing issues.
That’s why you should consider an inflatable pool. Here are several great inflatable pools we think will make a splash.
Splash the days away
The Summer Waves pool is a good solution for your family on hot days. It’s constructed of PVC for durability, and its polyester inner mesh sidewalls provide an unbeatable value. The inflatable top ring lets the pool rise as you fill it, so setup is quick and surprisingly easy. At 10 feet in diameter and 2.5 feet deep, it’s a good size for younger children. This pool holds 1,052 gallons when filled to 80 percent capacity.
Ready in 10 minutes
The Intex pool set will help you make a splash in your neighborhood all summer. Setup is not complicated and it can be ready to fill with water in under 10 minutes. The Hydro Aeration Technology helps keep your pool clean and fresh – increased negative ions at the surface are combined with improved circulation and filtration to keep your water crystal clear. The pool can hold 1,485 gallons of water to swim the days away in. Its 120V filter provides a 530 gallon-per-hour flow to ensure your water stays clean and safe.
For the whole family
The Homech swimming pool is a good option for keeping kids entertained and providing warm-weather family fun. At nearly 10′ X 6′ X 2′ it is sizable enough to accommodate two adults and up to five children. You’ll be glad to know this pool is made from lead-free, BPA-free materials, to be both soft and safe. It’s also 50 percent thicker than most comparable models, which makes it more comfortable and more durable. Ideal for small children, just set it up in your backyard and let the fun begin. Homech’s unique design includes sea-inspired colors and a white cap to reflect the sun’s heat.
Quick setup
This Sable inflatable pool is large enough to accommodate the entire family, measuring 118″ X 72″ X 22″. Made with lead-free Phthalate, it is 50 percent thicker than average pools which enhances its durability and resistance to punctures. The white cap keeps the edges of the pool cooler so they won’t get too hot from the sun when you lean on them or grasp them as you climb in and out. The pool sets up and inflates in 3-4 minutes with an electric pump (not included). Two drainage valves make emptying the pool much quicker for drying and storage when you’re not enjoying it with your family.
For little swimmers
At 34″ X 10″ the Sunset Glow baby pool is designed for the littlest water babies in your family. The three colorful air rings are joined with an inflatable floor for plenty of padded comfort. Sets up in minutes and easily deflates for safety and storage. The Sunset Glow baby pool holds 18 gallons of fresh cool water when filled to six and a half inches. It even comes a repair patch just in case. Babies naturally love the water and easily overheat in warm weather. This little pool provides a refreshing and playful solution to both.
