THERE’S nothing worse than spending 20 minutes blowing up a paddling pool, only for the kids to play in it for a split second and leaving you to put it all away.
But has shared her buy from a local toy shop that’s changed the game for




Liv took to her TikTok page to post a video raving about the £64.99 Portable Folding Pool she nabbed from her local Smyths Toy Superstores.
In the clip, she showed how easy it was to up â unfolding it from the box and pulling out the stands attached to the sides for added stability.
Liv was then seen filling the pool up, before adding some inflatables and a kids’ slide for her daughter to enjoy in the water.
“!”; she captioned her video
“No dogs popping it, no blowing it up & deflating it â literally open it up and fold it back down!”;
In another video, Liv responded to people questioning how “sturdy”; the pool is, as she demonstrated by giving it a push.
While she could push the sides inwards a little, it wasn’t enough to cause any water to flow out of the pool.
Whereas from the inside, the sides were impossible to push outwards.
“Got this last summer, it’s amazing,”; one person commented on Liv’s video.
“Didn’t come out of the shed with holes like the other pools!”;
“Oh wow how cool is that?”; another raved.
“Fuming at all the years I’ve spent blowing pools up, or building frames!”;
“What?!”; a third marvelled.
“That’s so much easier!
“I was about to buy a blow up one but I guess I’m going to Smyths!”;
“I just went and bought that same pool today, it’s amazing,”; someone else said.
While another asked whether or not the pool was suitable for “older children”;.
“Mine are 6 & 7 and had loads of fun in it with their friends,”; Liv replied.
“It’s not deep enough to properly swim but good to play around and go under water.”;
“Does it come with a cover?”; someone else asked.
To which Liv said: “I’ve just ordered the cover for this â £7.99 Smyths”;.
“Can you have a filter on it please?”; another questioned.
With Liv replying: “No, I have just put a chlorine float in and will use a net to get any dirt out”;.
