“There is no hole in the side for a filter pump and you are going to want to filter this as it's huge and not something you will take down and put up regularly. putting this together is a pain. it is literally a large sheet of strip metal with hard plastic to stick it in below and above after you've folded the liner over the sides. The black plastic tubing is the only thing keeping this sturdy and together...and it's hard to even put it together the first time without some of them cracking or starting to break. your children can not just randomly jump out of a side or in, pushing on the plastic tubing will make it come off of the sheet metal and crack/break. you will have to put it back on for the pool to maintain what integrity it has so you will need a ladder or step stool to get in or out of the pool. i've ordered a pool vaccuum cleaner and hope this will work to clear the cloudiness that has taken root in the pool after only a week. If they sold extra black plastic pieces for when they break (as they WILL, no matter how careful you are!) that would help. It's an affordable pool but you can probably get bigger and sturdier ones from ocean state job lots for cheaper.”
