I got the Intex 10-foot pool with the aluminum frame back in 2020 when all the public pools were closed for Covid. We’ve used it for five summers and it has held up. Haven’t yet put it up this summer but I will. It does sometimes get small leaks, but they’re easy to patch with the adhesive water-proof patches. I drain it, dry it, and pack it up every winter.
Pro tip: put down a layer of 1” foam interlocking tiles (find them at sporting goods stores or online) then on top of that put down a thick tarp. THEN put the pool on top of that. It will protect the bottom from harm and it’ll feel nice and padded when you’re in it.
