Those who own swimming pools and/or home spas know that the addition of these types of recreational facilities can bring many hours of enjoyment. But with the endless amounts of fun comes the constant need for maintenance and repair. One can shop at a ...

In The Swim - Discount Pool Supplies & Equipment via intheswim.com!

by Lisa_J Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 50, May 24 '03
There was a point in time that I said I would never own an above ground pool. Well… know the saying… Never say Never! Looking at the above ground styles of yesteryear, comparing with today's assortment, I would have to use another cliché,...

misleading on "free shipping" . . .

by whitewinelover , Oct 30 '07
I have been a customer of In the Swim for a few years and been satisfied with their products and shipping. I had not used their customer service department until my latest order. It has been a very bad experience. I recently ordered a pool cover ...

In The Swim is awesome !! The first time I ordered with them was when we went to close our pool that we bought used. After getting all the chemicals in it and then go to put the cover on it was too small. We live in a rural area and would have to drive ...

Absolutely FANTASTIC! Thanks!!!!!
by suezeeq1 ,Jun 06 '04
My first purchase from In the Swim was a new solar cover for my pool that my local pool stores did not have in the size I needed. In the Swim not only had the size I needed but I had my solar cover at my front door on a Saturday! Only 2 days after I placed my order online! And another advantage to buying online from In the Swim was that I did not have to cram the cover in my car and then try to get it out when I got home. I will surely be shopping here again for my chemicals, etc. Probably will purchase any item I don't absolutely have to have right away.

HUGH $7.99 handling fee, otherwise good.
by highbidatlast ,Jan 23 '05
Good products and prices, but watch out for the HUGH $7.99 handling fee on top of the shipping fee. This applies even if you order a simple cheap item.

Quick and easy!
by hotcoffeenow37 ,Sep 06 '05
We've made three purchases from In the Swim, the most recent being last week. Each time I was impressed with the quick delivery - last week's order was received in a day and a half (I placed the order around 10pm, lol). They frequently have special offers - $ off or free shipping. Great deals on the opening and closing chemical kits. I highly recommend them for pool and spa needs!!

Alyssa Allen, Customer Service Rep was extremely rude and incompetent.
by jnezz ,Sep 18 '08
Three weeks and I have not received my order so I contacted InTheSwim.com. Alyssa Allen, the Customer Service Representative, was extremely rude and incompetent of doing her job. For this reason, I will no longer do business with this company.

They employ deceitful advertising practices.
by tglee ,Sep 21 '08

Don't be fooled by free shipping. I was charged a $9.99 handling fee!!! What a ripoff. Obviously they are purposely misleading people with the free shipping claim.

It was very easy to find what I needed. The tracking numbers on the email was simple and I was able to see exactly what day I would receive my products. The products were delivered on time and in excellent condition. I will definitely recomment In The Swim Pool Supplies to everyone I know.

Getting my pool supplies from In The Swim is easier than going to my local pool supply store. In The Swim doesn't close and has all the products I need at great prices. Plus, we are close enough that most deliveries come the next day if I order early enough.

THE ADVERTISEMENTS WERE EASY TO READ AND UNDERSTAND. THE PRICES ARE VERY COMPETITIVE. BUT WHEN I CALLED TO HAVE A CUSTOM SAFETY COVER MADE THE INDIVIDUAL ON THE PHONE STATED IF I DID NOT HAVE A MINIMUM OF 3 FT CONCRETE ON ALL SIDES OF MY POOL THEY COULD NOT MAKE IT, HOWEVER WHEN I WENT TO ONE OF YOUR COMPETETORS THEY WERE ABLE TO MAKE THE SAFETY COVER AND DELIVER IT WITHIN A COUPLE OF WEEKS.
