Like outdoor games and pool floats, inflatable pools have made a major comeback over the last few years—and for good reason. They’re fairly inexpensive, easy to set up (just plug in an air pump and go) and can provide hours of fun for both kids and adults. While there are pools in all different shapes, sizes and colors available, we scoured through endless products and reviews to find the absolute best Amazon inflatable pool out there.

From a kiddie pool with a built-in water slide to a splash pad with a mermaid tail sprinkler to a “suntan tub” for parents, these are the most popular inflatable pools you can buy on Amazon, according to reviewers. Now you just need some friends and family, a killer playlist and a few of these easy party recipes for a grand summer shindig.

The whole family will support the purchase of this top-rated inflatable pool from Sellotz, which can hold a whopping 312 gallons of water. There’s room for everyone! It’s made of durable bisphenol A (BPA)- and lead-free materials, and it can be inflated in less than four minutes.

“Had three boys (ages 6, 10 and 12) playing rambunctiously in it over the weekend with no leaks or tears,” shares verified purchaser, Tracy Ostrewich. “This includes jumping into it repeatedly like it’s a WWE ring. Lol. Also works very well as a mom retreat where we had cold drinks, music and no-kid time!”

Verified purchaser, Nicholas Koler, says it’s the best value for the price, and writes, “These are great for toddlers to cool down in without taking up an enormous amount of space or time or effort. Has a padded bottom for kiddos who jump in on their knees. Great product.”
