IPUMSPI20 Teaching Platform/Swimming Island

Very good, expensive, but worth it to us. We have several small children that visit our pool, and with this platform the kids swim and don't hang on mom all day. The high side and low side are nice. For us adults, makes for a nice chair. Highly recommend if you can afford. I looked up the cost to buy the parts to build myself, minus the plastic boards and it was just as much. This has holes to let it sink, and stainless steel screws, so it's fine in a saltwater pool. It does move, so you still must pay attention to kids because they can pull it over, but in a 4' pool they can still use it to keep them above the water.

Absolutely fantastic and necessary for in-home swimming lessons for the kids. The larger size was worth it so two or more can enjoy. It did warp a bit when taken out of the pool after each use but not functionally a problem. Just consider your use-case-scenario because we don’t have a shallow end and in home kid lessons are THE BEST!

Nice to have an area for the toddlers to have a place to ‘touch’ bottom with their feet in place of hanging onto the ladder.

Our platform was damaged in shipping. I contacted Brian at IPU with the pictures showing the damage and a week later the replacement part was delivered. Very thankful.

A little pricey but good quality! Great for teaching kids to enjoy the pool and learn to swim.
