anyone own one of those "easy" pools?

[normajean]

how do you like them...and can't you just rinse the filters with a hose..like hottubs..why do they need replacing?

I always thought hot tubs were the "easy" pool.

I have one of those too, but want a pool for the kids.

Nothing 'easy' about them, really; except perhaps initial installation. Poor circulation and filtration mean mega sanitation (chlorine or whatever) expense.

Amen to that. I just bought the 12' x 36", and even after a solid shock treatment etc... the fvcking water is cloudy as hell with little bits of junk floating all in it. The pump it comes with stinks. I'm thinkin of buying the larger pump, 1000gallons of water an hour instead of 500.
And yes, the filters are washable.
