Here on the Eastern Shore, thereās no shortage of places to go swimming. Thereās the bay, the ocean, and more creeks and ponds than I can count. While I love going to the beach and hanging around bonfires at the creek, I donāt want to get in those waters. Not only does the soft/marshy feel of the bottom give me the creeps, but traumatic memories involving fish sucking on my toes still haunt me. And I donāt even want to think about the beach because as much as I love it, I donāt want to meet a shark face to face. Iām a little too paranoid about that.
Itās always tempting to jump in when itās hot and unbearable outside, but I remember I have this excellent new Intex Prism Frame Pool (provided for review purposes) just waiting there at home. I have to tell you about this pool. First, itās a huge 15ā x 48ā pool that my brother and I got set up and filling in less than an hour (we already had a flat, level spot). Yea, there is some setup required, but I like it better. Donāt get me wrong, Intex has some great quick set pools too, I just prefer the sturdiness of the Prism Frame pool.
Everything you need comes with the Prism Frame Pool Kit
- durable steel tubing for the frame *90-day warranty for pool and accessories
- a liner made with 3-ply, puncture-resistant material
- a 110-120V cartridge filter pump ((and accessories) flow of 1K gallons/hour) for better filtration, circulation, and water clarity *1-year warranty
- a handy ground cover
- a much-welcomed pool cover
- a 300 lb capacity ladder
- easy to follow instructions
The Prism Frame Pool is available in multiple sizes. The 15ā x 48ā (4,440-gallon water capacity) is the ideal fit for us. It holds 7 of us comfortably, probably more if weāre not all trying to swim around. Itās perfect for water volleyball and just cooling off. Itās not even summer, and the pool has already gotten a TON of use! I canāt wait to start on the backyard oasis with this pool at the center of everything! *Keep an eye out for that project!*
Before I forget, check out the liner. You know how most pools have the same dull blue liner? The Prism Frame Pool has an updated liner that looks so much better than that tired blue pool liner.
The only thing Iām not entirely thrilled with is the pump. It does its job so far, but I think when thereās more traffic in and out Iām going to switch to a sand filter pump. Just for that extra clean feeling, lol. For now, the included pump is doing a good job at keeping the water clear (just one shock treatment in the month weāve had it up.)
There are so many fun times to be had, and I canāt wait to share them with you! Be on the lookout for more ways to enjoy the pool this summer and donāt forget to check out Intex and all of their amazing pools.

Pools are so much fun for the summer and so needed for the hot days!
Fantastic review! Iām honestly not much of a swimmer, but my family and I could use a pool like this in our backyard, considering how hot it has been lately!
That looks great, how awesome to have a pool!
That looks like a cool pool! I bet your family will have a blast in it this summer!
Idk anything about upkeeping a pool or even owning a pool. Hopefully I can own one one day.
I always wanted a pool at home but I didnāt want to keep up with the maintenance. Plus, our previous yard wasnāt flat so that was another downside to adding a pool. I do like that they included everything that you need to set it up properly.
I need to get a swimming pool. Iāve been wanting to get one for years now. Now that I finally have my own home, I think sometime in the near feature weāre going to get one.
Oh my whole family will love this. They love swimming and my kids will surely enjoy. The pool looks so good!
This would be so much fun for our nieces and nephews! They love to swim. I will look for this.
This pool looks amazing! I want to jump right in, your pictures are beautiful, as usual. I like how easy this seems to set up and I really want one now. I may have to talk the husband into it and go pick one of these up, itās calling my name.
