We had a stainless steel pool for 15 years and it collapsed. Because we had quite a deck around it, we wanted a replacement quickly. In our area, installers are limited so it would have been next summer before we could get one installed. We chose the same size Intex pool and pleased to say it is pretty good. It was easy to put up especially we already had a level spot. As most say the last piece is a bear but with patience we got it! The only thing I wish they would do differently is get better pump hoses and connections. We already have 2 major leaks so I have to go out and try to find something better. The large pump and hoses we had on our old pool won’t work unless we cut in a skimmer which we will do next year. The pump that came with it is good but I have no confidence in the connections and hoses. The first day the one by the pump leaked and now the one up at the inlet keeps working itself loose and really leaks. I can’t run the pump unless we are out there to make sure we tighten it back down. I checked with our pool store and they only have the clamp on kind. Otherwise, the pool is great, durable and a very good size. Would recommend for sure!! Review: We LOVE this pool! - Very impressed by this pool! I would definitely recommend purchasing it! We did buy a larger pump and filter just because we’ve had above ground pools in the past and the ones that come with them aren’t always the best. I can’t comment on this pool’s filter and pump since we never used them. The pool shipped very fast, was a great price and setup was super easy with 3 adult men. They had it up and filling in less than an hour. We had our grandchildren slide along the inside as it was filling to get all the wrinkles out. Great purchase for the whole family to enjoy! ## Features - ✔ ULTRA XTR DIFFERENCE – The 26329EH Ultra XTR is the pool you need for friends and family to enjoy time together this summer, with a spacious 18ft x 52in round frame design and a 6,981 gallon water capacity. - ✔ SUPER-TOUGH LINER – Made of high strength polyester mesh and an extra thick layer of PVC, the 3-ply outdoor pool liner provides exceptional tear resistance for durability season after season; 2-year warranty included on pool liner, frame and filter pump. - ✔ RUST-RESISTANT FRAME – This big pool features a galvanized steel frame with an inner and outer powder coating, ensuring the ultimate resistance to rust; the high strength T-Joints include a UV inhibitor for weather resistance and lasting use. - ✔ EASY TO ASSEMBLE – Ultra XTR swimming pools feature an Easy Lock System for simple assembly; metal frame pieces simply snap together with no locking pins or tools needed.

Great purchase for the whole family to enjoy! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nothing to regret; very satisfied with this pool *by M***D on June 13, 2026* I’ve been buying Intex pools since 2018. My first was a 10 by 30 easy set pool that sat in the driveway. A few years later I upgraded to a 12 by 30 easy set. When we moved and bought a house I bought the 16 by 48 Prism (pictured). We loved that pool. The set up was easy and because we had a designated spot for it, we would take it down each winter and put it up each summer. Unfortunately, after 5 years, the pool deteriorated and so I got the 18 by 52 XTR. I love love love this pool. The set up was similar to the prism except the liner rods are shaped differently. The set-up was easy but it took a little more maneuvering as the new pool is bigger so we had to remove slabs that we had set into the sand that had served for the 16 inch. Once the setup was complete, I filled it about 5 inches and checked for leaks. No leaks detected so I kept going. I paused in the night and resumed in the morning and we are just about filled. I have a sand filter I bought years ago so I continued using it. It connects perfectly and I am about to shock it and open it officially. Until I am ready for something more permanent, I will continue with my above grounds and Intex is the brand I trust and the only brand I ever used and I have never been disappointed. This upgrade to the 18 inch was worth every penny. Also the delivery was for June 10th but was delayed and Amazon displayed a delivery date a week out. However, I was able to use the delivery service’s website and track it and it was scheduled to come the following day which it did. I would highly recommend this pool and I think I will winterize it this time and see how it holds up. Thank you Intex for giving us house owners a safe and cheaper option to enjoy. ## Frequently Bought Together - INTEX 26329EH Ultra XTR Deluxe Above Ground Swimming Pool Set: 18ft x 52in – Includes 2100 GPH Cartridge Sand Filter Pump – SuperTough Puncture Resistant – Rust Resistant – Easy to Assemble - Intex Deluxe 800 GPH+ Wall-Mounted Swimming Pool Surface Automatic Skimmer - Intex 28003E Deluxe Above Ground Pool Maintenance Kit for Minimum 800 GPH Flow Rates with Vacuum, 110" Pole, Wall Brush and 24' Hose (Color May Vary) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/109588926-18ft-x-52in-ultra-xtr-round-swimming-pool-set-sand](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/109588926-18ft-x-52in-ultra-xtr-round-swimming-pool-set-sand) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-09-10*
