It's (literally) hot girl summer — so cool off with deals on above-ground swimming pools

It's kind of hot right now — pretty much everywhere on this planet. If the current temperatures make you melt (same), consider investing in a purchase that will serve you for many years to come: an above-ground pool. Before you laugh, hear us out — these are the perfect middle ground between costly inground pools and tacky inflatable ones. About a year ago, we rounded up the best above-ground pool options on the market, but the below picks are all on sale right now, giving you one more reason to treat yourself to a nice, refreshing dip.

Don't fear about the installation time of these above-ground pools: they all promise simple assembly in under an hour, with no tools needed at all to do the job. After that, you can enjoy the remaining weeks of summer (cue Lana del Rey's "Summertime Sadness") in cool, refreshing waters. Shop our top above-ground pool recommendations — from trusted brands like Intex and Bestway — here.

Best above-ground pool with easy assembly deal

Why we like it

A savings of $1,168 is wild, so it might just be the perfect time to invest in the Intex Ultra XTR above-ground swimming pool. Take advantage of its Easy Lock System (making it super easy, and super fast, to assemble) as well as its tough PVC material, included pump that provides constant filtration, and steps that will make getting in and out a breeze.

Best above-ground pool for water filtration and circulation deal

Why we like it

The Prism Frame Premium swimming pool can be assembled in under an hour (for the impatient among us) and boasts Intex's patented HydroAeration Technology. Essentially, this system works by continually injecting air into the pool's water — while creating negative ions that maintain the water's freshness levels and removing minerals like iron via oxidation. Splash around for the remainder of your summer without a worry with this Intex deal.

Best above-ground pool for leak-free swimming deal

Why we like it

This swimming pool from Bestway comes with a pump, pool ladder, cover, and pool chemical dispenser. It's made of a three-ply PVC liner that resists potential punctures and leaks, while Bestway's Seal and Lock system adds further strength to the pool's steel frame. In its product description, Bestway makes a fair point: double-check your HOA rules and regulations before investing in an above-ground pool, as some agencies might not allow it. Better safe than sorry!
