Brought it home that day and used the air pump to pump it up,...

I am a very doting aunt, so when my brother called me and...

Pros: Cute
Cons: HARD TO KEEP CLEAN

This is the neatest looking pool on the box and set up, however it is a bear to try to clean. I bought this pool last summer thinking that our son could have room to play while I was in it with him. That part was true and he did love the palm trees, the...

Pros: slide, basketball hoop, sprinkler
Cons: not for younger kids

My daughter is two years old, and loves Grandma's big pool, so naturally I wanted to get her a small pool for home. I was tempted to buy a very cheap two-ring pool and be done with it, but then I saw the playground pool and starting rethinking it.
