Our pool was so cold before this cover! It works so well for heating the pool- and it does a good job of getting all the water warm not just the top. Keeps all the debris out. Only thing is it usually lasts a season or 2 tops but totally worth it.

These summer time pools are nice to have on a hot day vinyl is very sturdy but the maintenance is a lot the pool pump is not strong enough to filter the water properly. The price is right for this pool.

I bought a new 15 Ft. Intex pool yrs ago from a farmer whom lived out in the country. I paid a considerable smaller price, then I would of paid from the store. We layed sand down, before we placed the pool on top. This helps to even out the bottom of the pool once placed. My daughter and I straightened out the pool out the pools in, and it was ready to fill up. The filters work well, and are easy to maintain. They do need to be changed every two or three months. We bought six gallons of shock, and a floating device with bleach tablets for keeping it clean throughout the summer . The Solar blanket is a must for these Intex pools, as it keeps the water nice and comfortable throughout the season. I would say the 15 Ft. Intex pool was the best purchase I made for $250, because brand new in the store its well over $600 hundred. My family, and friends enjoyed the pools for over seven yrs. I highly recommend Intex pools for anyobe looking to a have a long-term pool. They are well worth the price, and easy to assemble.
