Pool stairs are a NIGHTMARE to put together. The directions could not be more vague in identifying which part is which. Further, it came missing 12 parts (hard ware store remedied but cost me 35), and it came with 7 mystery parts not reflected in the manual and with no obvious application. I’m going to call Intex support tomorrow and see what they provide to remedy this and may update the review if anything is remedied favorably. Overall, the pool is a great size for the price and arrived two days early than the tracking suggested, which was nice. The bonus of the pool care kit is a plus.
