    Probably the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever bought but if it keeps the sprogs somewhat quiet if we get a good run of weather that’s good enough for me to justify it.

    It’ll probably rain constantly now for months. Lol.

    Thanks op.

    Cheers OP just ordered one, even if we get a few good days on the front it will have paid for itself.

    Which is why you should buy now if you can - try getting your hands on one of these from June on if we have a run of good weather.

    Amazons customer service is one of the best, any issues with it and they will refund you no questions asked.

    As a bored adult, i was gonna get one, but I reckon the photos are exaggerated a tad. Looking at the customer photos, the height of the pool looks tiny. Id say if you sat in the middle of it, it'd probably not even cover the height of your legs.

    Just incase any other children trapped in an adults body like myself are considering it. :o

    I had one of these last year. its a good pool but the shape of it and the inflatable seats were the only things i didnt like.

    https://www.amazon.co.uk/Bestway-Family-rechteckig-aufbaubar-305x183x56/dp/B07TMK5P5P

    I have this pool and find it better.


    As for inflating it if any one has a kids bouncy castle. The blower from that with an empty 2l bottle of coke cut in half will inflate these pools fairly fast!
