Has anyone else experienced this? The legs on our new 16 x 48 creak like crazy when the kids are in the pool splashing around. It is level. All legs are plumb on their front and sides, all top rails are level. I'm not worried it's going to collapse. It's not completely full yet, but about a foot more to go, and I'm wondering if it will go away at any point because I'm not sure I'm going to be able to stand the sound all summer long.
Intex XTR legs CREAKING!

Depending on how much the water gets moving, the pool will move and creak to some degree. That being said, an additional foot off water will certainly help stabilize things a bit more.
My old Intexes and the Summer Escapes didn't creak. They moved and flexed and stood up to some pretty gnarly horseplay, but the sound of this creaking...UGH! Nails on a chalkboard. It's got to be the resin joints. Literally wondering if oiling it will stop it.
The oil will degrade the plastic parts, use silicone or something plastic friendly
Did it get any better with the full amount of water added? Thinking of getting an xtr, obviously since it is new there is not much by way of reviews.
