Bestway 189016 Fill n Fun Pool

Before You Buy: Fill ‘N Fun Splash Pool

The Fill ‘N Fun is a rigid-wall splash pool: its heavy-duty PVC sidewall holds its shape without inflation, unlike air-ring paddling pools. The listing sizes it at 72 inches wide by 15 inches deep, holding 198 gallons.

Good fits and limits

• The 15-inch depth suits wading and splashing for young children, not swimming.
• No pump or filter connection is listed — plan on filling with a hose and draining after use.
• A repair patch is included for small punctures.

Choose this over an inflatable pool when you want something that keeps its shape on a patio or lawn. Source: Bestway 189016 listing on Amazon.
