Bestway Steel Pro MAX 12'x30" Metal Frame Above Ground Pool, Filter Pump & Cartridge, Gray

Absolutely love this pool! Great size, easy set up, and it looks great. Also bought the Bestway 10ft pool cover, which keeps it super clean, along with the filter pump and chlorine. The design and quality is wonderful and I would definitely purchase again if I need a new one. 10/10

The pump doesn't work well, Had to get the next step up. I had my pool for 2 years.. definitely served its purpose, had at leady 10 kids in a pool got a little rough and held up great, over the winter cover broke and iced up.. on April 28th 2026 went to fill it had a leak... had paid for warranty, $45 for 4 years. Guess it doesn't cover wear and tear.. such a waist of money.. Pool is great, just don't waist your money on the Warranty.

This is a great little pool that has held up pretty well for it being on the small size. It was surprisingly simple to put together, and is the perfect size for me to float around and the grandkids to play in. It even held up to a birthday party with 10 kids jumping around in it. Pump could be a little stronger, but works well enough. Definitely recommend!

We had a 32 ft 4.5ft deep pool and replaced it with this easy to clean kid friendly 12 ft c 32in deep pool. Great for a great grandma to keep up for the kids. Adults can go in to be near the kids. The pump is good. It doesn’t come with a ladder but we cut one from the big pool and made it a perfect fit.

Great, awesome smaller pool. Another summer of fun. Great quality, very durable. You must buy a pump separately. The pump that is included isn’t suitable for the size. We bought an intex filter 2500 GPH and have used it for years with various pools of this size to maintain crystal clean water.

We have only had the pool up for a few days, but so far, it's working as expected. The pump doesn't have a strong output, but that was to be expected with such a small pump. I highly recommend buying a ground cloth meant for pools to place underneath as our last pool had grass that sprouted through the pool and caused leaking and ultimately ruined the pool. Read the warranty before purchasing so you know what voids the warranty.

Best not to even bother with the included filter pump, it was too weak and and was more trouble than it was worth. We have a pool vacuum garden hose attachment and the pool is small enough to let out water and refill every now and then. What did impress me was how sturdy it was!!! I had over 8x 10 year olds swimming in circles at one point and dunking each other and getting in and out. It really really held up! No wear at all and the frame is solid.

It is advertised as 10 feet, it is only 9 1/2. The hoses for the filter were leaking, I had to use teflon tape to help seal the connections better. It is an easy set up, it was a very reasonable price. I guess it works for the summer. First time I ever buy a Bestway pool.

Giving it a 2 star review for a few reasons. Waited almost a month to set it up due to crazy Kentucky weather and with 2 days left on the 30 day return policy we decided to put it up, fill it with water and plug in the pump. Pump doesn’t work at all. Lights up but pump itself must be seized because it made a tiny grinding noise as soon as it was plugged in then did nothing. The pool bottom had a few small holes in it that we repaired before set up and while they still leak a tiny bit it’s not enough to worry too much about. Writhing this while awaiting a replacement pump and will see where this goes from there. Overall it’s a great, well made pool perfect for toddlers and just the right size for them. Contacted seller

Ordered this pool a week and a half ago and received a pool ladder. Not a pool. I have talked to Wal Mart Customer Service twice both people said it was a 3rd party shipper and assured me a pool would be shipped and I would receive an email with shipping info. The email I received says ‘no record of this tracking number’, and ‘this label not available’. I have waited a full week and I haven’t received a pool or an email with proper information. I would like to just cancel the order and start all over but I am unable to do that because the order technically says delivered but the correct item wasn’t delivered. Anyways, super disappointed to say the least.
