Best Inflatable Pools

It’s hard to imagine a better time to put an inflatable pool in your backyard. After the year we had in 2020, nobody knows for sure if public pools will be open or how those gatherings will look once they are.

Of course, having your own backyard pool is always a good idea no matter what the social climate. Keeping our families entertained at home is just a fun way to relax and enjoy your time together.

 If you’re struggling to find the perfect inflatable pool for your own yard, we’ve got you covered. From baby pools to full-size models, you’ll find exactly what you’re looking for right here.

Best Inflatable Pools with Seats

Inflatable pools with seats are great for couples or groups of adults. Of course, even kids will love it, but imagine the adults sitting around in the evening with a cool drink in your hand. What a way to spend the summer!

Intex Swim Center Family Lounge Inflatable Pool

This pool by Intex is designed for ages three and up and will hold 4-5 people very comfortably.

At each of the four corners is a comfy seat with a headrest with plenty of room in between. And it also contains two cup holder spots molded into the walls.

This pool is easy to inflate and easy to store and weighs only 14 pounds when it’s not filled.

Best Small Inflatable Pools

Depending on the size of your yard and the size of your swimmers, you might be on the lookout for a smaller pool. These can be handy because they don’t take up much room and can be quickly drained and put away.

Intex Crystal Blue Inflatable Pool

If the size of the pool is a concern for you, simplicity is probably a priority as well. And it doesn’t get much simpler than this little 45” x 10” inflatable by Intex.

Intex is a name in the industry that everyone trusts. Their products are durable and affordable and come in all shapes and sizes.

This model is ideal for children 2 and up with only a 6.5 in water depth. It’s fast and easy to install and put away.

Intex Sunset Glow Baby Pool

The Intex Sunset Glow Baby Pool is a cute little addition to any yard. Its rainbow pastel inflatable rings give it a soft edge. And its puffy inflatable floor gives babies a cushioned bottom for comfort.

3 Pack 45” Inflatable Kiddie Pools

Why buy just one super cool kiddie pool when you can buy three? These 45” inflatable pools are designed to resemble a donut, an ice cream sundae, and a hamburger.

Choose one to fit the mood or inflate all three for a backyard party. OR…to mix it up, fill one up with water, one with plastic balls, and one with sand. What kid wouldn’t love that?

These little pools are made to last from quality vinyl and are safe for ages 3 and up (with adult supervision, of course). They come with their own repair patches in case of tears or holes.

Homech Inflatable Swimming Pool

No products found.

Since not everyone looking for a small pool is necessarily interested in a “kiddie pool,” we’ve included one that’s kind of in between.

Now while this one is considered full-size at 95: x 56” x 22”, it’s still small enough for most backyards. You can fit about 2 adults, a kid or two and still have room to splash around.

 This pool is made with 0.4 mm PVC, which is much thicker than most on the market. And it’s easy to set up in just a few minutes with an electric pump that you can buy separately.

Best Large Inflatable Pools

With a large inflatable pool, you’ll be able to enjoy all the benefits a built-in pool has to offer. Plus, it’s not permanent so you can remove it from your yard any time you wish.

​Intex Easy Set Up 10 x 30 Pool

The Intex Easy Set Up Pool is everything you could want in a backyard pool. First of all, it’s large enough for the whole family. Secondly, it can be connected to a filter pump to keep the water clean and clear all summer.

This pool is 10 feet in diameter and 2.5 feet deep. That makes it large enough for several family members but small enough so that it doesn’t take up your whole yard. But if you’re looking for something larger, it does also come in 12, 14, and 15 foot sizes.

These pools only have a top ring that has to be inflated, and once it’s full, that ring floats on the water. That means it’s super fast and easy to set up and take down.

​Summer Waves Quick Set Pool

This Summer Waves Pool works a lot like the Intex Easy Set Up Pool we just listed. But this one comes with its own filter pump so there’s no added cost.

This one also comes in a little larger at 12 ft x 36 in. It’s another very easy to set up pool with just one inflatable ring on the top. And it’s made with high-quality PVC and a durable liner.

It also comes in an attractive brown wicker design for a little bit of a different look than your average blow-up pool.

​Summer Waves 15 ft Quick Set Oval Inflatable Pool

This extra large oval pool just might be the granddaddy of all inflatables. It’s 15 feet long x 10 feet wide x 42 inches deep. That makes it not only larger in circumference than the other pools but also deeper. The adults won’t even get bored in this pool!

When you order this product, you will also get a cartridge filter pump to keep it clean, a ladder, a pool cover, a ground cloth, and a repair patch. And it comes with a snap-in metal frame for added support.

​AsterOutdoor Inflatable Swimming Pool

The AsterOutdoor Inflatable Pool is both large and simply designed for easy assembly and removal. It measures 120” x 72” x 24”. There’s plenty of room in it for the whole family but it’s shallow enough to be safe for the littles (with supervision).

You can inflate this pool with a pump in a matter of minutes with its large air valves. And it’s easy to drain with its 90° drain pipe.

Because this pool is designed with three stacked air chambers, the walls are super sturdy to support more weight and hold its shape. It comes with a one-year quality warranty.

Best Cheap Inflatable Pools

Most of the pools on our list are pretty affordable, but if budget is your main concern this year, you might want to skip right to this section. We don’t want you to sacrifice quality, so we think these will fit the bill while still giving you a good product.

​COOYES Inflatable Pool

The COOYES Inflatable Pool is a large full-sized inflatable that won’t break the bank. It measures 118x72x20 inches and is big enough for a couple of adults and 3-4 kiddos.

It’s made from a thick high-quality PVC material that will last as long as you need it to as long as it’s taken care of properly. The three separate air chambers inflate quickly and give you added support and durability.

It’s also designed with 2 leak valves for fast deflation, so it’s easy to take down and store for next year.

​EPROSMIN Inflatable Swimming Pool

No products found.

One of the cheapest, if not THE cheapest pool on the list, is the EPROSMIN Inflatable pool. This one has a cute foot-themed design and will fit easily in most yards. It’s 51” around and 11” deep so it’s the perfect size for the littles.

Its three-ring design is easy to inflate and deflate. And it’s sturdy and durable so it will last. The pool holds about 20 gallons of water which can easily be drained whenever needed.

​STARTONECO Inflatable Swimming Pool

No products found.

This one goes on the list because it is not only cheap, but it also comes with its own electric pump. That’s almost unheard of with even the pricier pools.

It measures 180 x 140 x 60 cm so it’s larger than your average kiddie pool but small enough to not take up too much space. Like some of the other pools, this one has three stacked inflatable rings for added stability. And it’s lightweight and easy to take down and store.

​Sloosh 2 Pack Kiddie Rainbow Pools

Kiddie pools are usually pretty cheap anyway, but we decided to add this one to the list because it contains 2. So, if you wanted to, you could split it with the family next door for half the cost.

These have a cute rainbow and stars design and are 45” in diameter. They’re made with sturdy and safe materials and can be inflated in a matter of minutes. Patches are included in case of punctures or tears.

​Conclusion

No need to commit to an inground pool when you can purchase an inflatable model in any size and shape you want. These pools are great for rental properties, vacation homes, or even your own backyard because you can take them down and store them whenever you’d like.

Besides, with one of these in your yard, your family will never be short on fun.
