BEST purchase ever. We did not go away this summer and I needed something for the kids. Both are under 10 so this was the perfect size for soaking in the pool and just splashing around. Even my hubby went in it a few times to splash around with the kids.  The filter system works great but you need to get filters. It came with one. They are hard to find. Wish a few filters were included with the purchase of the pool. Overall I am thrilled with this pool.
