I purchased this pool last year for my family. It might only take 15 minutes to set up if you have help...it took more than 15 minutes just to get the ground cloth the way I wanted it. Your ground MUST, MUST, MUST be level. If it's off more than 1 inch you're in trouble. Don't try filling it higher than the instructions say or you'll have one of your children going over the top (which they loved and asked if they could do again, I said no) with 100 gallons of water or so. The instructions say to run the filter for something like 5-6 hours per day. No, you need to run the filter 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Forget the little floating Chlorine tablet thing. Go buy the small 1 inch chlorine tablets and fill the center of the filter after it's in the pump container with the tablet. Refill every 2-3 weeks when you change or clean the filter. You can take the filter out and clean it with the hose and/or soap and water/hose instead of putting out $7.00 every 3 weeks for a new filter. I've learned all this by doing it the wrong way and then talking with the pool guys and learning the right way. But after it's all set up and going it's so much fun, even for the adults. You just have to be committed to keeping it going. And you save water by not having to dump it out every few days.
Summer fun

A fun pool and you get what you expect. Not too deep for little kids and deep enough to go under water and swim for bigger kids. However you really MUST put this on flat ground, even 2-3 inches difference in height side to side makes a big difference. I had to empty the pool and level the site after setting it up initially. Also I recommend a floating (constant) chlorine supply to avoid algae, which you can get at any pool store and run the filter more frequently than the instructions say. A little extra maintenance is worth it. My kids 9 and 11 really had fun.
A little help for you...

After reading all of the reviews, I want to offer a little help to those having trouble. First, this is an EXCELLENT pool when used correctly. Several times it has been mentioned that you need 100% level ground. This is not true. What happens is that when the pool starts to fill, you MUST be sure that the bottom seams are where they are supposed to be. This is what causes probably 60% of leaning pools. If the seams are uneven, then the pool will lean. Simple as that. It took us a while to figure that out, because it's not extremely obvious when you're setting it up. Secondly, I'm sure there have been some problems with seams splitting, but I offer this...PLEASE make sure that you have an INTEX EASY SET POOL and not the AQUA SIMPLE SET POOL. They look almost identical, but the Aqua brand is highly inferior. I have many friends who took the cheaper Aqua pools after seeing mine and thought they had the same thing. The seams split on every one of them. So, make sure you have the right brand. The most important thing I can tell you is to watch the video. You can't just spread it out and leave the hose running in it. The most important step is to start smoothing it out when the water gets a few inches high and then continue to do so until there's enough water that you can't move it anymore. This is vital to keeping the pool level and free of creases. We have had our pool for four years and have a VERY uneven yard. We have two kids (10 and 5) and the entire neighborhood swims in it (I had 8 kids in there yesterday). We've never had a problem after the first year when we finally wised up and watched the video. The most important part of any pool is proper set-up and maintanance. If you're willing to put in the work, the rewards are sweet.
