Picked up one of these above ground pools from BIG W Joondalup WA. We have been looking at getting one from Bunnings or Target, and found this at our local BigW by chance. The Bunnings one (Summer escape) is smaller at 2.44mt (8ft X 30inch)for $89 http://www.bunnings.com.au/poolscape-244x244x76cm-quick-set-… . The Big W (Driclad brand) Pool is 10ft (3 mt) X 30 inch deep for just $55.
You get the pool and pump (Plus fittings) for this price. If you want a ground sheet and pool cover they are extra.
This type of pool has an inflatable ring as a pool lip, and the water volume held by this Driclad pool is 3600litres when 80% full (Recommended fill level).
We are happy to get one year out of it for this price. Very easy to set up too, and no leaks.
We have seen plenty of stock at Joondalup and Whitfords WA stores. I assume as WA is the backwater state in Australia, they will be everywhere else too :-)
got mine for $30 each 12 months ago. decent pool for the price.
got 2 but as mine is undercover havent cracked open the 2nd one yet.
great for sinking into on those damn hot days.
be aware of local council pool fencing issues.
