3rd Season Update- Coleman 18x48 Power Steel Swim Vista II Above Ground Pool 

Just recently bought one and I'm hoping to get at least 4 summers out of mine. Will definitely look into the covers for the rails and I like your idea with the umbrella to cover up your pump system. Putting mine up this week. Thanks for the video!!

I just got my first Coleman pool (18x48) after having multiple Intex pools over the past 15+ years. The last one I had actually lasted 4 CT summers (while keeping it up through winters) which is a record. I did have salt water/sand filter for it which finally 'died' last year. And the skimmer is definitely a lifesaver! Your set up and follow up videos have been so informative. I'm excited to get started fresh this year and make the pool area prettier and protect the pool even better going forward. I see the white ladder in this video. What brand is it and where did you purchase it? Looks incredibly sturdy vs the ones that come with ALL the pools. One other question: How long do you run your filter on average and what time of day/night? Thanks again for sharing your information and experience. - Dianne 😊

Great timing! I’m setting mine up in a couple months and really wanted details of what you accomplished and I got that in this video and the previous one, thanks! Ohio Winters are brutal.

We're finally looking to get one, after an Intex EZ set years ago. I think you've got the 3 most important things that it takes to keep one up. The pool, the right pump, and a automatic pool cleaner for the floor. Without the sand pump and cleaner you're fighting a losing battle. I spent more time and money 3 years on chemicals from Leslies, and trying to keep it clean, it was green than it was clean. Thank you for the review!

I just put one of these up for the first time this year. Great to see yours held up so well. Great video, new SUBSCRIBER here.

That is a hell of an angle on that fence

Time for a 4th season update lol Also buy a vinyl guard - it moisturizes and prevent up damage it’ll last waaaay longer

Getting ready to install a brand new Coleman 18x48 and by far you have helped me out A lot! Thank you for the great videos. I'm very pleased to see you have gotten 3 years out of it! I am wondering what improvements if any they have made from 2020 till today 2022. Again thank you! I paid $488.00 for ours.

Buying one soon! Looks good

What chlorine and shock are you using? My first one faded the color after 2 seasons and looking at a coleman

Is it holding up Today 2024 ? ?

Looks great. I have a steel sided oool with liner. Do you let dogs swim in it? I have a German Shepherd and was wondering how it would hold up. She does kick off the side at times

Nice video... your setup is very nice... wanted to know ifbyou were worried boit animal using claws and or bitting into pool? Thats my main only concern.

I'm on my 4th season I tear everything down at the end of the year only take about hour to setup and start filling with water

I just picked one up as a trial with the hopes of some kind of longevity. What did you use for rail covers to prevent rust?

OMG... Can you tell me and all of Amazon how to assemble that ladder??? It's the Vinyl Works one, right??

What material did you use to cover up the top portion of your frame?

Question is it true you have to take this type of pool down every year or can ya empty it below the skimmer and leave water in it during the winter?

Where did you get your pool ladder from? I need one of those. I have had my Ultra Frame Intex for 3years now, and that ladder is retirement ready 🤣

So I got the exact same pool and pump as you. Based on your awesome review and information. I added 40 lb of salt to it right after I set it up yesterday. How long do you run the chlorinator each day?

How did you make your top railing covers? What are they made of?

And 3 years later we are still in a pandemic!!!

Do these pools need to be install with water bonding kits?

Do you leave your cool up for the winter or do you take it down and put everything away?

What did you cover the rails with? I see the clips? Did you cut a tarp? Vacuum brand?

Is the 48" measured to the top of the rail or water depth?

What do u shock with and how much u use?? Ty

Did you keep the same water in for 3years ? Thanks for the video looking to get one soon.

Has the pool liner faded? We have another pool brand and liner totally fade

What automatic pool cleaner do you have? Did you keep the original pump? If not what brand do you recommend!

What's the vacuum hooked up to?

Do you have snow on your area?

So we got a used pool but It has like red brown tint to it that I can't clean off. Any recommendations on how to clean it?

What brand is that super crawler guy?

How do you prepare the sand pump after already being used for a season

What filter did you switch to? How can you tell which are compatible with the pool?

Did you put the tarp under the sand or on top of the sand that’s under your pool?

Where did you purchase the ladder

What kind of ladder do you have can't find a good ladder

i think its only been 2 years coz you said 2020 🙂

Do you have any suggestions on cleaning the windows mine have changed colors?

What did you put underneath the pool?

do you think that the same filter only using 2100gph will also do for this pool?

what filter is that

Can you link your pool vacuum?

where did you find the hose replacement?

Where did u get the blocks for under the legs?

$400 it’s $1400 plus 13% tax in Canada 😩
