No joke! I love this thing. I wish it would last forever and I hope they don't stop making it. I'll buy a new one every summer! Another reviewer said it was so big that he could float in it. Well, I tried... and conquered! This thing was big enough for me to float in it on flamingo float ring. Here's a picture of me in my float and one of my boyfriend. He's 6'7 for reference!

Posted multiple photos of different angles of this pool since I felt like there wasn't a lot for myself to go off of. The pool is 2.5 feet deep. Roughly 5 feet by 5 feet wide. We bought a tarp and put that down on the cement first, then used the air compressor to blow up the pool itself. I attached a picture of the compressor and the air tool we used as well, along with a few photos of the plugs that are in the pool. Took about 10-15 minutes to blow up the pool with the compressor, then maybe 30 minutes to fill it up with water. Comfortably fits my boyfriend and I (late 20's) and our little 7 pound dog and his little raft he chills on. We can both sit on the Bench if we want. Or sit on the floor, without having to sit on top of each other which is nice. With Prime I got it delivered in 2 days, which was awesome with this California heat! Nice to chill in the backyard with a drink (In the cupholders!) Some music, BBQ, and relax a little. Not to bad for the price at all. Definitely worth it for a blow up pool, and so much cheaper than what the stores have to offer.

Mini Update! 7-17-17 Pool has been awesome since purchase! Did add a short video to review of trick to draining pool... I made the mistake of leaving the pool completely uncovered AND unused the week of 4th of July and every bug, spec of dirt, and Firework found it's way into that pool, disgusting! Fireworks are HUGE in our neighborhood so the pool was bad (as you can see, it's embarrassing) so I typically use a little Tea Strainer to pull any bugs or leaves out of the pool before hopping in (Picture posted) so since the pool drainer hole is on the bottom, I took the end of the strainer and propped it up in there lifting the pool just enough to drain the pool, everything can't out, I used a little blue dawn soap to scrub out the inside afterwards and rinsed it and let it drain, and actually repositioned the pool in my backyard and refilled it and I swear it looks better than new!! That strainer was AMAZING and saved me a whole DAY of work!!! Still love this pool in this Cali heat!!

I bought this pool. It is awesome. I swam in it with my 6 year old and we had a blast. I'd totally recommend purchasing. He loved it and I loved it. It was big enough for at least 2 adults and 2 kids. We lounged on the lounger and he jumped off of it and played and played for at least 2 hours, maybe 3 hours. It kept inflated and was very sturdy. The lounger was sturdy as well. I was concerned it would not take much weight or might deflate but it held up nicely.

I LOVE IT! I live in the central valley, CA and in the summertime, it's HOT! I started searching for "adult kiddie pools," and came across this gem. I figured for the price, what really have I got to lose? The pictures were deceiving, especially the picture on the front of the box, because I figured I'd be somewhat cramped in this. . .but unbelievably, as a 6'0" tall woman I can recline in this and my feet don't even touch the other side!!!! It is so lovey! I can float in it, it holds much water! I can swish in it ;-) and I can drink beer in it........ALTHOUGH, the cup holders $uck: they aren't perfectly round and they're too shallow to hold anything really, but if that's the worst part of this pool I simply do not care. I've only used it one time, on Memorial Day, and what a perfectly relaxing time I had - my friend jumped in as well later in the day and both of us had plenty of room - you could've even thrown some kids in :-) - but as I've only used it once I can't yet speak to the durability/stamina of this thing.......but so far, so GREAT!

Perfect, but not using it for kids....lol.....its my personal little lounge with a drink and ummmm someone beside me kinda hot tub!
