Phoenix Round Above Ground Swimming Pool, 18' x 52 | Steel Frame - Heavy-Duty Outdoor Family Swimming Pool for Backyard, Patio, and Yard

Make sure you are ready to buy a liner with the pool frame. The frame is all you get

Excellent Quality

There are a lot of problems I have with this pool. 1) When you order it, you only get the pool and the frame. Nothing else. You have to buy the liner, ladder, filter, skimmer, etc... all separately. 2) it is nearly impossible to find a skimmer that is designed for this pool. The directions do not specify which skimmer to order with this pool. 3) Another issue with the directions is they are not specific to the size of the pool you order. The directions do not clarify what each step is based on the pool size. If I could go back, I would not order this pool and if you are considering it, I would recommend you buy a pool that includes all of the accessories needed and pay to have it installed. Installation is possible and if you follow the directions you should be okay, but it isn't easy.

The steel pool itself is good . The only problem was that the liner itself must have been a return the way the box was so heavenly taped up. After installing the liner and filling the pool with water I discovered it had 7 small slits in the liner. Though it kinda odd at first glance why the box wa so heavily taped up,

Just what I wanted

Product is what to be expected, however one part is missing and cannot get a hold of seller, manufacture or find the part to order

It’s a beautiful pool, and it wasn’t too hard to assemble. But you just need to understand that it needs to be, and I mean completely, windless day. Any unexpected breezes can really muff things up. Also, you really need to have like at least four people. Five would be better. Just to hold the walls up wall your unraveling to spool of pool wall around in circles, and holding it in place in the track.Also, and this is important, when spreading out the liner and bringing it up to the pool lip, pay attention that all lines are even, so that it’s not lopsided. Sounds obvious, doesn’t it. Yeah ok, you’ll see, lol. Also, when pulling that liner around, if the sun is out, it is rapidly absorbing heat and will stretch. Be careful. Slow and steady wins the race. You’re going to get impatient and just want to get it done. If you do and you overlook a fold or a crease or misalignment, you’ll just have to do twice the work later to correct your mistake. So slow your roll there speedy and do it right the first time. It’s worth it.

This pool has been great so far. I didn’t have any help putting it up. Just put it up by myself. It was pretty difficult to do by myself, but if I can do it alone then if you have some help it should be a breeze.
