Intex ultra xtr?

The wife is wanting a pool for the summer. I am looking at the intex 12×24. It has gotten quite expensive with the pandemic 2400 on amazon. Is it worth it and what kind of lifespan can I expect out of it.

    Those cheap intex above ground pools aren't generally well-made, You might get 2 or 3 summers out of it before it starts falling apart. I wouldn't expect much more than that out of the pump either. These aren't exactly high quality items.  For some perspective,  A  real-deal in-ground pool will run about $25k on the low end and well over $50k on the high end. With the liner, pump, and filter lasting around 10-15 years before needing replacement.
