The Intex Easy Set Pool 8 ft x 24 in is a proper above-ground family pool, not a toddler paddling tub. At 2.44 metres (8 feet) across it gives grown-ups and older children real room to sit, lie back, and cool off together, which makes it the pool most families upgrade to once the small round ones feel too tight.

Its whole design is built around the famous Easy Set trick: there is no frame to bolt together. You simply spread the pool out on level ground, inflate the single top ring, and start filling with a hose. As the water rises it lifts the ring and the walls rise with it, so the pool puts itself up while you stand back and watch.

Because it holds real water — about 2,419 litres (639 gallons) at the recommended level — the walls are made from puncture-resistant 3-ply vinyl: two tough outer layers bonded around a woven mesh core. That construction shrugs off the knocks, leans, and climbing that a busy summer of use throws at it.

Set up on a flat, clean patch of lawn or terrace, filled to its 18-inch (46 cm) depth, it becomes the centre of the garden on a hot day. This is a bigger pool with deeper water, so it is rated for ages 6 and up, and children should always be supervised in and around it.

At the end of the season the pool drains, dries, and folds away far smaller than any rigid pool, and a repair patch is tucked in the box for the odd puncture.
