A portable swimming pool is a lovely thing to have. Portable swimming pools are above ground pools. These pools are great for the family and for kids especially - just keep in mind, they do need to be supervised. A portable swimming pool is great if you are looking for an above ground option that does not require a permit or a lot of setup or installation. The main concept is when you are done with your portable above ground pool, is that you can take the pool down and move it around to another location. This works great for the cold winter in which you don't want weather damage or rust to get to the pool. In the winter you have the option of even moving the pool indoors and continuing to use it there.

Lounge Pool

When you are choosing a portable swimming pool, you may spend less money and go for a lounge pool. The main concept of a lounge pool is to lounge around. There is a not a lot of room in a lounge pool usually, in order to actually swim. A lounge pool works as a family pool and works well for children that just want to cool down. If you are looking for an above ground pool that allows more room for mobility and actual swimming, you will want to consider purchasing a larger above-ground pool for that. Lounge pool is also really nice for anyone with a debilitating disease that need warm water to relax in. Also a lounge pool can help to sooth aching muscles and joints.

Metal Frame Portable Swimming Pool

Some portable swimming pools are inflatable, but larger ones have metal frames. The metal frame can generally be unpackaged from the box and constructed in a relatively short time. The metal frame can also be deconstructed and then moved in a relatively short time as well. The nice thing about a metal frame portable swimming pool is it's larger then a lounge pool. You can have a number of people in it - so it's great for you, the family, and even the neighborhood brats!
