I can't believe my good luck! May 10, 2008
By M. Rennick This is a wonderful invention at a fantastic price! We love it! By the way, it is 7 by 10 feet and 3 feet deep. I was expecting something smaller, but am thrilled that it is bigger and just the right size. We have dreamed of having an indoor heated pool where we can do some serious swimming, but knew we couldn't afford the pools with the current machine or a swimspa. My children and I have fibromyalgia and were desperate to find some way to swim indoors in a heated pool. I found this pool by searching on google and wanted to order it through Amazon. Everything went well. We received it a week later and installed it with the iPool Spa Filter / Pump and Heater Upgrade. You must have a 220v GFCI installed for the heater, but the upgrade is worth it. It heats the pool easily and perfectly. We thought the hose attachments for the heater were not in the box and called Fitmax. The man himself answered the phone. We looked again and were embarrassed to find them immediately. Still, I think it's great to get such great service. The harness works great, the steel supports very strong, everything fantastic. BUY IT! It can easily fit in the garage. We have an outbuilding we installed it in for use all year long--and we're in Missouri!

Better than expected Aug 10, 2009

I have to admit that I was a little skeptical of this at first, but it has turned out to be GREAT. We had looked in to all sorts of other lap pool options, and there was really nothing that came close price wise- We'd have to spend $12k more to get pretty much anything. So, We gave it a shot- And I am glad that we did.
It was relatively easy to set up, though you DO have to make sure that you have a nice, VERY level spot to set it up on. I had to do a little excavating in my yard to get the area totally flat. It went together easily enough, though the instructions were a bit difficult. We filled it with water, and hopped in!
I didn't know how I would like 'resistance swimming' compared to lap swimming. It feels a little different- But it is still a great workout. Once you get used to swimming in place, though, it's not too bad. You'll have to play with the placement of the resistance bands a little, but once you get them adjusted to your swimming style, you don't need to mess with them again. I am a pretty strong swimmer, But once I got the bands in the right place, I had no problems.
I keep my water Chlorinated like any other pool, and it stays nice and clear. Ours is outside, and stays plenty warm just from the sun, so I haven't needed the heater. I MIGHT be moving it in to the basement for the winter, and I'll probably need a heater if I do. We've already got 220v there, so it won't be a big expense.
We only had one problem- The filter that came with it was defective, but a quick call to FitMax resolved that issue, they had another one off to us right away. The customer service is GREAT- and there is actually a live person on the other end of the line!

Great Item for the Price! Apr 10, 2009
By Swimmer Like a previous reviewer, I'd looked at some of the other home lap pool options. The iPool seemed like a good alternative. It arrived quickly and was very easy to set up - although it helps with a second person. I also purchased the heater and now keep the pool at 80 degrees. The pool is kept in our garage ~ the pool blanket (purchased from the company) helps retain the heat and keeps the humidity down.
The electrician's bill to wire the heater was more than I'd expected. That being said, I think the total cost is well worth the price. The pool is being used every day. I love the convenience!

The iPool is fantastic! Apr 09, 2010
By Bathing Beauty 77 We have a new iPool that we have just installed in our back yard and we are just delighted with it. It is a real swimming pool, not at all a small play pool, actually a real workout pool. The construction is ingenious and comes together with totally quality construction. Unfortunately for us, we installed it during some very cold spring weather in Los Angeles, and haven't been able to do much swimming yet. But we have just installed a solar heater, had it chlorinated and have learned the necessary pool maintenance. You definitely need a heater and the solar blanket and then you will be set for some wonderful swimming year around. For us, the ipool is a dream come true, after years commuting by freeway to the UCLA pool in Westwood to try to keep up our daily pool workouts with the very limited schedule for lap swimming. An extreme, expensive effort that was actually stressful and exhausting itself. Now we are the lucky ones with our own workout pool that we can use 24/7! We are thrilled and feel the iPool was worth every penny! Lawrence at Fitmax knows every detail about his product and helped us himself with questions and additional hoses and connectors we needed for the solar heater. He gives excellent customer service. We will never be without an iPool in the future. We feel it is the best investment for our family's health and fitness! It is hard to believe now that we ever hauled our swimming gear, driving freeways to get to a lap pool.

Ipool Sep 19, 2009
By Ginger Love swimming in this pool. It's refreshing, convenient and fun exercise. If used indoors, be sure to get it with the heater option; but also be aware of the electrician expense required for the 240 power hookup.
