Sorry in a hurry today but wanted to atleast start a quick update/review.
Was about 2" off in one corner but filled it anyways after draining once after being half full for being about 6" off in the same corner.
One corner settled and needs to be fixed and we have a bow in the long end you can see in the picture (that leg needs to come down)..... When the waters moving the white bead on the corner joint shows so its close to popping out. It will not come out right now but if it settles more it possibly could. I was very tempted to jack the corner up 0.5" and slide a steel plate under it but probably won't.
Nice pool for the money but if you have unlevel ground get a professional to do the leveling..... A budget pool can get expensive quick. These pools don't just pop up and magically sit perfect. Our experience was a lot of hard work and a little extra money spent. A weekend project turned in to 6 weekends.
Not knocking the pool..... If you got flat ground and are happy with having a pool of water to jump in its a good deal.
