Above ground pools sell out in 2 hrs, hold 8000 L of water.

The lucky few who got one should remember to change the water twice daily, you don't want to be bathing in your own filth for too long.

Fairly discussed to death on other Boards forums. It's not designed to have water changed regularly and comes with a filtration and chlorine system.

Can't legally prevent the sale of them. How people fill them is the issue.

Beer. Fill it with beer.

Put a fish in it and it can be filled legally using a hose.
