@WhoDIGS Hi m8, Thought you can help - I’m think of getting the Bestway 4.57m by 1.2m round portable pool as I’m thinkin of harnessing myself to my patio pillar so I can do resistance and stroke training. 1. Can that be done for that spec purpose ? &. 2. I’m planning to keep the water and stuff and hopefully cover it when not in use But for 2. to happen, do I need to apply chlorine and stuff or should I be okay to use the sole filter provided ? Cheers m8

Hi Not too sure on using it for resistance training. Mine is only 60cm deep, so only good for kids and floating on. I use chlorine tablets in mine, and run the filter daily for an hour. I found when I covered it and went on holiday for a week it went green. Looks like it’s beneficial to run the filter. Only filled mine twice during the summer. Good luck.

Not too sure what you mean? There are a couple of black bungs that came with the kit, which I use when I’m cleaning the filter. I remove the grey parts from inside the pool and block the tubes with the bungs. This allows me to clean the filter in the pump and keep the water from coming out of the pool. Once reassembled I take the bungs out and run the pump.

@whodigs975
2 жыл бұрын
Seems to be ok. Yes it’s not the same material as the main part of the pool, but I had a destructive 8 and 12 year old in it and it seemed to cope ok. Main part of the pool material feels very strong. Picked mine up for £60 including filter pump, saw one without the pump for £30, so not much more than a paddling pool would cost for a toddler. Comes with a repair patch too. I should get another summer out of mine. Well worth the money. I’ve had the rectangular inflatable pools and this is 10 times better.

The pump that comes with the pool is for filtering the water. Cartridge will need regular cleaning. The top rim can be blown up by mouth or a small pump. Just remember to bleed the air out of the pump when first turned on. Forgot to do mine after cleaning once and blew the pump.
