Toys and Games Reviews of Intex Swim Center Family Pool (Colors and Styles May Vary)
Customer Review: Great Value - lots of fun
Summary: 5 Stars
We have had two of these pools (one per summer for the last 2 years). All the kids who come to our house love it. It works for all ages (inflate just the lower ring for tiny tots so they can get in and out and use the second and third as needed). We found for children aged 2 - 6 just the first 2 rings provided plenty of fun. We put the third one up as a treat (or when mum and dad got in!). It is true that by the end of a summer of hard 'swimming' the pool does get punctured, but for the amount that it was used and the enjoyment it provided our children (all under 7 and all very physical) and the all around entertainment value on hot summer days it is well worth the price. When filled to the top my husband and I can also enjoy lounging too.We plan on buying another this year.Customer Review: Tons of Fun!!!
Summary: 4 Stars
I purchased this pool for my kids last year and we have really enjoyed it. We tok it to my in-laws one holiday and all the grandkids had so much fun that my in-laws purchased one of their own. I have however had trouble with punctures. Ours got a small hole in the top chamber shortly after we purchased it and we were never able to find it to repair it. Now it has so many holes that it is impossible to inflate. We also managed to lose one of the rubber plugs and could not find ANY way to replace it. However a piece of rubber fron a popped bicycle tire and the screw cap worked just fine. Despite the problems, I loved the pool so much that we are going to buy another identical one to replace it. Besides, considering the price it is well worth the money.Customer Review: worth the money

My mother in law bought this pool for my daughter three years ago and it is still going. I have had numerous children playing and jumping in it. It is well worth the money and time that I have put into it. The vinyl is strong and durable for my two children. Yes, we have had holes and the best thing for that is a waterbed patch kit. It can handle the water and the air of the pool. My kids love when summer comes because we can get the pool out and they have a blast. My husband and I often get in with them to enjoy and we all fit with room to spare. You can also purchase the cover for it for around $6. That is worth it also just for the fact that you don't have to scoop out bugs everyday.Customer Review: Poor quality!

We had this pool for 2 weeks in which it never held any air, cannot figure out why, all 3 chambers would deflate. Itex customer service is hopeless as well, trying to get new rubber valves prooved to be an enormous challenge. Wasted our money and now my 3 year old daughter is upset she has no pool. Maybe our pool had a flaw in it??? Anyway, I would not suggest this pool as my daughter is only 3, not rough on her toys and could not have caused this pool to lose air. Would try and get my money back if it would be an easier task but not if I have to fight for it. Good luck if you order this pool. I ordered it because it had pretty good ratings??? IDK how it has such a good rating....Customer Review: Fun, Fun, Fun

This pool is great--we get a new one every-other year, but it's so affordable....
Listen, here's the scoop on cleaning this pool. I've done this 100's times over the years and it's super easy. Takes me 10 minutes, tops. Just open the three valves on the side to deflate and the water will fly out. Then reinflate with the reverse port on your vacuum cleaner--takes 20 seconds in each opening. Now you have an inflated, but dirty pool which is simple to rinse out. Then fill with water and put a dixie cup worth of bleach in the pool when you first fill it--doesn't bother skin, keeps fresher longer, and is much easier to clean when the time comes again.
