Intex Inflatable Stars Kiddie 2 Ring Circles Swimming Pool (48" X 10") [Assorted Styles]

Easy to inflate and deflate. Folds up small. We used this for a party to hold water balloons but the kids 3-5 also got in to play. It’s small enough to bring with us when we travel as well. Would be a good one to bring to the beach

At around 6 mo of age I bought a ton of these balls http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0040I9IS8/ref=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_10 and put them in this pool and left in our living room. My baby was a little hesitant at first, but after about a month it became her hangout spot. By 9 mo she was jumping in headfirst and had brought in her little toys to play with while she sat in it. Now as she's turning 1 she is starting to lose interest I think but she still crawls in and out of it during the day so I'm not going to put it away just yet. My husband was totally skeptical when it arrived and I explained my idea but after the 1 month mark he admitted it was genius. (I can't take really the credit, I got the idea from another reviewer on this pool - but of course I didn't tell him that!) Anyway, so that's been my experience with this pool. It's not a cheap idea bc the balls are expensive and I think I needed 200 to fill the pool but I think it was totally worth it. The pool itself is nice & sturdy. I followed the directions on the package and used the air pump provided with it which took some work - I warn you - but it does get there eventually. No air leaks. Looks super cute and plenty big enough for my kid to hang out in.

This pool was the perfect size pool for my baby and toddler. My toddler loved the ice cream designs and colors. We put it in the grass and it held up well. The quality is great, and once you're done with it it's easy to fold and storage. It comes with safety instructions and labels for adults. The bottoms is soft and comfortable for kids to stand. My kids so much fun, and for this great price it was such a good purchase!

Great pool for littles. I was apprehensive after reading some reviews but for the price I figured it was worth it for a few uses. It appears to hold air well as we have had it up for about a week without the need to refill with air. My 9 year old gave it a run for the money when he joined the baby for a splash Overall a good little soaking pool for a good price Also very cute design

This was the perfect addition to our beach vacation with a two-year-old. It was big enough for him and even one adult to fit into, as he requested several times. We blew it up by mouth, so that took a little bit of time but not much. We filled it up in the ocean and no rips or tears occurred. Deflating also took a little time but wasn’t bad. Highly recommend!

This pool + 150 play balls = awesome ballpit. I have yet to test it out as a pool, actually. I blew it up once when I got it and it has stayed inflated ever since (maybe 2 months??). It's a great size for my nearly 9 month old daughter. The colors are bright and fabulous! It was a fantastic price, as well. A great, simple, little pool! Edit: It is now June 2013 and my nearly 3 year old is STILL using it. It's gotten a hole or two in the bottom, which I've patched with duct tape. I did use it for water many, many times and it held up well. Several years later and I don't use it for water anymore, but still use it as a ball pit. The inflatable sides are still inflated! I'd say I've gotten my money's worth. 2nd Edit (Update): Today, Nov 23, 2013, was the last day of this little pool working. The bottom ring finally got a hole in it and deflated. What did I do?? I ordered the EXACT same one just now on Amazon. Can't beat it- $7.50 for 2.5 years of wear. I kept this thing outside most of its existence, too! My 10 month old son uses it with his sister as a ball pit and will be very happy when the replacement comes in the mail!

Perfect size and great price. Bought for my 1 year old granddaughter who is not a fan of beach sand. We inflated it and brought it to the beach, added some ocean water, and she splashed and played for a long time under the umbrella. Easy to inflate and deflate.

I purchased this product as a ball pit for my 1.5 year old. We do not have a very big house, so I needed something that was easy to pack up and store. A foam ball pit was not going to work because of the difficulty it would be to store it. I decided a small kiddy pool would work best. I ran across this one during my search. Shipping was actually fast. I have Prime, but most times my packages don't arrive when they say they are going to. This one actually did. The packaging was small and compact enough for the item to be placed in my mailbox. Blowing up the item was slightly difficult. We needed up using a manual hand pump that we had received for another toy. With the pump it was a lot easier. I would not recommend just trying to blow it up by yourself. The only negative thing I have to say about it is that it's not very round. No matter how much air we put in it, we couldn't get it to round out. I believe if it was filled with water it would be fine, but as a ball pit it is kind of oddly shaped. It does not bother me, but it might bother someone else looking to do the same thing with it. One of the things I like most about this is that the sides are low enough that my 1.5 year old can get in and out of it with ease!
