'Aldi's enormous outdoor Summer pool can be turned into a hot tub' - and costs £170 less than Argos

With temperatures in the UK set to surpass Tenerife this week, Aldi fans are scrambling to get their hands on a gigantic outdoor pool that is big enough to hold over six people. Aldi's budget outdoor pool costs £129.99 - a staggering £170 cheaper than a near identical pool at Argos, which will set you back £300.

Aldi's Summer Waves Metal Frame Pool has a huge 12ft diameter, making it perfect for families and groups of friends to keep cool in the hot weather. The pool features a metal frame to ensure it keeps its shape and is sturdy enough to hold a group.

The budget Aldi pool also comes with a cover, pump and filter for ease of use. A similar 12ft pool from the same brand can be found at Argos for £300 - a huge price difference of £170.

Aldi's £129.99 outdoor pool has been showered with praise from customers. Those who have bought it use it time and time again, and say it can be turned into a 'hot tub' in the winter by adding a heat pump.

Awarding the budget outdoor pool a five-star rating, one Aldi shopper said: "Bought over a year ago and was used much more than I originally thought. Assembled this year and had issue, Aldi had replacement sent within two days which was amazing. No trouble sourcing and getting replacement filters on Amazon."

Another wrote: "Amazing! Great value for money. I’m really impressed with this pool and was surprised to see people are struggling to get replacement filters when you can purchase these off Amazon definitely recommend!"

A third Aldi fan said: "This is our 3rd summer with this amazing pool. We love it. We also bought a heater for ours we love it. Highly recommend."

A fourth penned: "Had this pool for over 2 years. Kept it up last winter and it’s still going strong. The filters are available online. Just need size ‘D’."

Somebody else added: "Great pool. Bought last year and still going strong. As a large family it is used a lot! As others have said about the filters for the pump we have had no trouble at all buying replacement filters for it. They fit perfectly, obviously Aldi don't sell them but they are readily available online."

A similar 12ft outdoor pool can be found at Smyths for £120, but is currently out of stock for delivery and can only be collected from stores.

Aldi's enormous Summer Waves Metal Frame Pool is available to buy for £129.99 online now.
