We originally had always paddling pool with air chambers. Unfortunately, our cat has been drinking water from the wading pool and constantly stung with its talons holes in the tires. So if you have pets, this wading pool is a real alternative. Assembly and disassembly are very easy. The water can easily drain through the folding of the sidewall. Of course, it can just as easily lead to Wasserverlusst when the children rest on the side walls, etc. - therefore a star deduction. Caution: the splash pool must be at least about three-quarters filled, so that the pool wall is stable.. So not suitable for very young children with low water levels - but the manufacturer's recommended age is also at 36 months.
