The Intex Mandarin Outdoor Swim Center Pool is a big rectangular family pool in a bright mandarin-orange finish. It is a clear step up from the round kids pools: at 90 inches long it gives two or three children the room to stretch out, lie back and actually swim about rather than just sit in one spot.

The rectangular shape is the practical difference. A long, straight pool uses your lawn or terrace far more efficiently than a round one of similar size, so more of the water is usable space for children to play, kick and float in.

The body is built on a dual-ring design, an orange lower ring and orange upper ring with a white band between them, which gives the pool its cheerful mandarin look and keeps the tall sides standing firm once inflated. The walls are made from 0.23 mm vinyl for repeated seasonal use.

The inflated size is 90 x 58 x 18 inches, which is 2.29 m x 1.47 m x 46 cm, or about 7.5 x 4.8 x 1.5 ft. It fills to roughly 33 cm, around 13 inches, of water depth, and a built-in drain plug lets you run all that water out through a hose instead of tipping the pool.

A repair patch is included and it packs back into its storage box for the off-season. It is a seasonal family pool that needs a flat, clear surface and a separate pump to inflate. The Intex Mandarin Swim Center Pool price in Pakistan is Rs. 12,500, reduced from Rs. 15,000.
