Dangerous Above-Ground Pool Recall

Jul 25, 2025 | News

What Happened?

A major recall has been issued for certain above-ground pools after a tragic design flaw resulted in the deaths of nine young children between the ages of 22 months and 3 years old. The issue centers on a compression strap around the bottom of these pools that can act as a foothold, allowing children to climb in—even when the ladder is removed. These incidents have raised national concern.

Approximately 5 million units have been sold since 2002, including models from popular brands Bestway, Intex, and Polygroup. The affected models are 48 inches high or taller, with brand names printed on the exterior.

About the Manufacturers

Bestway, Intex, and Polygroup are leading manufacturers of recreational water products sold nationwide in major retail outlets. Their pools have been found in backyards across the U.S., posing unexpected risks to child safety.

If you purchased an above-ground pool from these brands within the last 5 years, check immediately to see if it is part of the recall. Even if no incident has occurred, your product may still pose a significant danger.
