20 Best Pool Pad For Above Ground Pool (2023 Updated)

I like this product and it was simple to install. However, the manufacturer/seller states that an 18’ round pool requires 14 four foot pieces. This equals 56 linear feet. Unfortunately, the distance inside the walls of an 18’ round pool is 56.

5 feet. Since you can’t have a six-inch gap in the cove foam, this means you’re gonna need 15 pieces, not 14. The manufacturer should know this and sell you the correct amount, instead of leaving it up to you to discover during installation (and then have to drive to a pool supply store to buy one extra piece.

).

Order the 19 pack however there were only 12 in the box when we opened it. When we realized it it was too late to return and we couldn’t wait for replacement parts. I ended up having to purchase them locally.

Spent twice as much money but didn’t have a choice. Now it’s too late to rerun them. I have no idea if they work well because I never had the chance to use them. Don’t make the same mistake I made and open the package and count the contents.

Don’t just assume that the carton is labelled correctly.

For the price, this is a very durable floating raft. The ones that are made out of the high density foam can cost over $1000 so for the same functionality and only $55, it works. The vinyl is very heavy duty.

At least 5-6 times thicker than a regular inflatable. The tie downs at each corner is a nice accessory because you can anchor the float from underneath. This float will fold down to a very compact size vs the rigid foam that you have to carry on the roof of your car.

The only thing that was disappointing was the actual dimensions of the raft once inflated. Its about a foot shorter all the way around. Instead of 9’x7′, is more like 8’x6′.

For the price I paid ($48), I’m satisfied. The mats were easy to inflate with a manual foot pump and were relatively easy to deflate as well. However, it’s quite a chore to roll/fold them back up. Once inflated, they work well and support a good amount of weight.

The real negative on these is the weak attachment points. The first and only time that I’ve used them so far, the rope that I used to secure them to the boat ripped 2 of the attachment points off. They aren’t too sturdy.

For a pool, this would be great. For a boat, however, you might want to consider other options.

I wasn’t sure what to expect when I ordered this, but I thought it was fairly priced and just took the plunge. To my surprise, it was actually much larger in size than I had anticipated, which was great! The kids had a blast playing in the ocean on this giant raft! We’ve only used it a couple of times so far but it seems super durable and is easy to transport and store without having to I flare/deflate it every time.

I’d absolutely recommend!.

Very fast shipping exactly what I ordered. Installed this on a brand new 30 foot pool. I opted out using spray adhesive. I have a beaded liner so I ducked taped the wall foam just under the bead channel and the bottom just overlapped my foam cove by a few inches.

My pool wall bolted together so it was very nice to overlap this wall foam over the bolts which I also had duck taped for added protection. I did not tape the wall foam on the bottom I just let it hang from the top I did tape the beginning and the end to hold in place and I did this on a very calm warm day.

Installed the liner and filled the pool with no problems whatsoever, meaning I had no wrinkles from the wall foam and it laid in place just right. The pool wall feels soft to the touch. I would recommend using this if you can.

As this is a new installation I don’t have any experience to know if this foam helps insulate or not. I hope it does.

When our pool liner was destroyed by some animal, we had to order a new liner. Once we took out the old one, we noticed that there was NO wall foam! A supposed “professional” had installed it and neglected to put in the wall foam and cove.

This arrived quickly and the box was not damaged. It was easy to install and we have plenty left over “just in case”. Highly recommend!.

Took 2 people to install and used 3m super 77 adhesive. Definitely protects the liner from any wall defects and makes the sides nice and soft to the touch

It was not a very thick gauge so you have to be very careful not to poke holes while installing. The sides were very hard to get straight. There was extra liner going around the top. I think this was a little too big for a 24 ft round above ground pool.

The bottom seam goes up onto the sides of the wall about 3 inches instead of even with bottom of the wall. Because of that, it was hard to get the wrinkles out of the bottom.

I give this company a 5 stars because of their customer service. We got the liner from them and as it was being installed found out it was a 24 ft instead of a 21 ft. The installer made it work. It’s not pretty but it will work.

Contacted company and they sent us the right size liner at no extra cost to us. We will reinstall the right liner next year. Thank you for a prompt response.

Had this liner for 15 months then started leaking. have read on this 20 ML and they say, they are NOT the best for everyday swimming nor, SUV sun heating. The company will not honor my warranty because I am told they have to be Torn or ripped at the SEAM only.

My problem started right above the seam on a side of the pool where no pool equipment is. their own quote (“We stand by our products and are happy to replace any Swimline product that shows a manufacturing defect or issue.

“) Mine has a issue that had no human fault.

I’m happy so far. Installed it into a Sunscapes 16′ round pool: metal frame. So, I had to install it along with the existing liner. I opted for the bungee method of securing, & it’s working just fine so far.

Have to be extra careful however, because the thickness just isn;t on par with the original, which is to be expected I guess. Overall, it allowed me to salvage my pool & make it usable for the kiddoes.

so it’s a win for me.

After searching many pool supply places we bought this one for 3 reasons. 1) Quality 2) Availability 3) Affordability. This is the most affordable one. The liner is perfect, exactly like the original one.

I would definitely recommend this replacement liner.

Order was shipped very quickly. Liner was exactly what was expected. Will have to see how long the colors last. They say it’s been improved. My last one only lasted a couple of years then faded to almost all light blue but could still see the designs and was still pretty.

The pool liner is beautiful. The only complaint where the two seams where merged they didnt do it properly. The waterfall doesnt come together seemlessly. When they glued it together they dropped one side down to far.

This means you cant get it perfectly level around your pool.

The material does fell nice and thick BUT once the liner is stretched and tightened, only very little of the waterfall print remains at the very top of the pool. Most of the print is hidden under the cap.

I could have bought a plain liner much cheaper and I would have if I had known it would not show.

Liner is great however I feel the size is maybe 3-5″ short in the bottom length. Had to re-install with extra slack and there’s very little overhang on my 52″ tall walls. Pictures show looking down at bottom along the ends.

Might be my specific pool though.

Very Sturdy Pool Ladder for above ground pools over 48 -52 inches high. My wife and I assembled this ladder in about two hours (I work slowly – and very carefully ensuring I fully understand the instructions.

) Overall the instructions was good – a few little areas of interpretation – but all parts were exceptionally well marked and cautions were frequent for ensuring you put things together the “right” way.

The ladder does need to be secured to the pool (if possible) or to some structure to ensure it does not move laterally.

The top rungs were difficult to put together. they wouldn’t line up correctly and had to be forced. Once up, the ladder was still quite wobbly. We put cinder blocks against the legs on the outside. My pool is only 4 feet so the ladder is higher than the pool.

(perhaps it’s wobbly because there’s not a high enough water level on the pool side. ) I do like the base at the top to be able to turn around on to go down into the pool. I wouldn’t buy this for a pool under 5 feet.

Easy to setup, comfortable to walk on it. Im really happy of getting this sets of ladders. The only little problem is to connect them together, it would be nice if it comes with such things as a connector (more sturdy step or something what could be placed under the connection step) or at least if Id be able to buy it separate.

Since I use one pair of stairs outside of the pool and the other inside the pool I needed to use something to connect them together, so I used the step from gate set (I got the set few years ago) however its not really working together with the other ladder set but Im still using it.

And the color of the ladder sides is not white, as the gates set, just light grayish/brownish, so if someone is really picky then make sure you order the white color (on the picture it looks white and in the description it didnt really says what color).

In general, Im happy of the purchase, Id recommend it, and the shipping was really quick.

We have several family members that are heavyweights & a couple with physical limitations. So far so good. This pool ladder/ steps make it so much easier to enter the pool. The steps seem sturdy but the handles feel a little flimsy (flexible?) but as long as no one swings like monkeys on them they work just fine.

The liner fits just right under the steps with out excess hanging out like our old steps had. Assembly is not too difficult with 2 people. Happy with purchase.

We purchased these steps to fit the 16 x 32ft. Intex pool and they worked perfectly even though our pool has that big bend at the bottom of the sidewall. These steps were so easy to put together, everything snaps in place and I think there might be 6 screws to put in.

The sand actually goes inside the hollow framework which means that you don’t have any sand bag issues (I would suggest using a funnel to put the sand in though). The railings really could be more sturdy, but my 85 year old Mother uses them just fine.

We are very happy with our purchase!.

Sorry I would not buy these again they do the job but are a pain to lay on the ground, don’t do it on a windy day 🙂

TranslateShow in original languageC’est peut-être une mauvaise lecture du produit, mais quand on pose ces quelques dalles au sol, on se rend compte qu’elles ne vont pas servir à grand chose. Déjà la surface à couvrir demande énormément de dalles, puis il faut en acheter des plus épaisses, celles-là sont trop fines, surtout quand le sol n’est pas linéaire.

Le prix est trop cher pour le rendu.

First I really liked the liner as soon as I saw it. Really great print and makes the pool look amazing. Next, the packaging was a simply cardboard box and that I used some of it to make pool shoes – ie, taped cardboard to my feet so I could walk on the liner.

Lastly, it was a nice warm day so the liner was very plyable and overlap type so was easy to install. Clothes pins I found work the best to hold the liner to wall before putting coping strips – makes tweaking adjustments easy and quick.

In Summary – great value – will shop / buy again.

Used for a 15x30x52 oval above ground pool. Nice thickness, great design, looks great, easy to install.
