Priced at as little as £7.50 – down from £15 – Argos’s kids paddling pool holds up to 26 litres and takes as little as 5 minutes to inflate.
The Bestway 3ft Sunny Days Shade Paddling Pool is flying off shelves as parents rush to nab the “soft” inflatable pool in time for this week’s hike in temperature.
Measuring 101x97x20cm and is designed for children over the age of 2 under the direct supervision of an adult.
Featuring a smiling sunshine design, the pool promises “guaranteed delight” to little ones.
It also has a UV sunshade providing a safe space for kids to splash around in out of the sun.
Delighted parents have called the paddling pool “great value for money” with one saying it makes for some “really cute photos”.
One said: “Loved this for our one year old, sun shade and low level water was perfect.”
Whilst another added: “I was lucky enough to get this in the sale and I’m so pleased with it.
“To be honest I’d buy it at full price. My daughter loves it. Easy to set up too!”
This bargain buy comes just in time for the heatwave forecast this week, with temperatures expected to reach 25C.
The Met Office has forecast glorious conditions with highs of up to 29C by Wednesday and Thursday.
Sunny spells are due to grace large parts of Britain, with some light rain expected in northern Scotland.
Met Office meteorologist Craig Snell said: “We’re certainly on track to see the warmest spell of the year so far.”
He added how the conditions are higher than average for this time of year.
At the end of April it is usually about 12C in the north and 16C in the south, so some areas could be more than 10C higher than the average.
But records for April and May are unlikely to be broken as the highest temperature for April stands at 29.4C, and May’s record is 32.8C.
Met Office Chief Forecaster Matthew Lehnert said: “We are not expecting the April UK temperature record to be broken, but some locations may nudge local records.
“Often warm spells are driven by warmer air arriving from further south, but the origins of next week’s air are from Scandinavia and central Europe.
“This air mass will be warmed by compression as the high pressure begins to build, and this warmth will be boosted by daytime heating from the April sun.”
