The assembly also takes time, and you can hardly disassemble it for winter. Intex 14ft x 42in is cg-26663 safe for kids over 6 and is big enough for several adults. As usual, the manufacturer offers several more size options for those who want a smaller or a larger basin.

We found that the most challenging part about installing this rectangular above-ground pool is site preparation. Some yards may only need light leveling, while others require more work. We live on the side of a mountain, and our yard is sloped, so we had to excavate to create a sloped area. The site also must be compacted and capable of supporting the weight of the water inside the pool, and you should avoid areas with sand or mud. Look at you, balancing beauty, price, and performance with versatility.

There are a lot of parts that can be confusing at first, but it all makes sense when you watch the DVD. These pools are great for people with small yards, large yards, or anywhere in between.
