The walls are soft and flexible, but they don’t have nearly as much give, thanks to the stiff support poles, which are also rust-resistant. The sidewalls are the same thick material as the Easy Set Pools, but the metal frame makes them 1,000 times sturdier. The Easy Set is held up by an air ring that doesn’t offer any support to the body of the pool.

Enjoy hours of outdoor fun with the Intex Prism Frame™ 12ft X 30in pool. The last two pools of the review, Intex 16ft x 48in and Intex 24ft x 52in, belong to the ultra XTR frame pools category. Comparing Intex ultra XTR vs. ultra frame or prism frame models, we notice that ultra XTR can offer the most durable and lasting support. Both basins have improved galvanized steel frame with inner and outer powder coating.The first model has triangle-shaped tubes and T-joints.

Besides, T-joints make the frame more rigid and stable. So, only two models – Intex 14ft x 42in Prism Frame and Intex 16ft x 48in Ultra XTR Pool – feature such connectors. The other three pools require direct connection of tubes.

Intex 14ft x 42in is safe for kids over 6 and is big enough for several adults. As usual, the manufacturer offers several more size options for those who want a smaller or a larger basin. Also, one will see the same dual suction outlet fittings for water circulation. The pool received the Hydro Aeration unit that significantly improves water quality, circulation, and filtration.
