Storage Theory Poolside Cup Holder Set (White 4pk) - Pool Drink Holder for Drinks, Cups, Phones, and Pool Accessories for Above Ground Pool - Fits 2” or Less Round Bar Top Rails.

Really inexpensive solution for the pool drinks. They fit perfectly and stay fixed

The pool I have is this one: Summer Waves P2001448E14ft x 48in Outdoor Round Frame Above Ground Swimming Pool, which I purchased from Amazon. When I went searching for cup holders on the Amazon app, this product was recommended from the page of my pool. After reading reviews and searching outside of Amazon, I decided to try these cup holders, though I was aware there may be issues with the fit. That said, the fit was so much worse than I expected! Not only were they very loose anywhere I placed them around my pool, they poked into the top of my pool liner. Initially, I assumed I was going to have to return the cup holders, but there simply does not seem to be a good product on the market, so I decided to contact my inner MacGyver and see what I could do to make these work for my pool.My first attempts included using different lengths of zip ties and trying them in different areas on the cup holders as well as different bars on my pool. The closest I could get to a sturdy cup holder with this method was really quite bad; it would hold maybe a half-full soda can, but the cup holder wouldn’t be steady at all.In the photo, you’ll see I circled a tab that is at the bottom back of the cup holder. I removed this (with a wire cutter because I was in full MacGyver mode) and smoothed out the edge to ensure nothing would snag my pool liner. After that, I placed the holder at one of the vertical posts of my pool and grabbed three extra-long zip ties. I put one zip tie around each ‘arm’ on top of the pole and one through the bottom of the cup holder and around the vertical bar of the pool. When the zip ties were pulled tightly, the cup holder does not budge. I am now able to put a large, stainless steel cup filled with ice and drink in the holder and it is completely steady. My biggest complaint now is that the zip ties are quite noticeable (they are ‘clear’ in color) and it looks cheap, similar to how classy duct tape makes things appear.So, after spending a couple of hours messing with the cup holders, they’re great! Out of the box, not so much. Buyer beware.

Works Great Holding onto The Pool

We have the Coleman/bestway pool, and the poles around the top edge are oval shaped vs circle. Maybe it’s because of this, but unless you position the cup holder so it’s on the inside and resting on the pool itself, it won’t straight. Obviously not a huge deal, but for things like my phone I would rather the cup holder hang on the outside of the pool. We still love them though!

We bought these as a gift for our friends' new pool Initially, they did not sit level but after a slight modification to the lower bumper piece they worked great. Our friends loved them so much they are buying some more

I have to force them to fit on our 18x52 Intext ultra xtr pool and it seems like they could pop off and drop my phone in the water. I face them away from the water and feel more comfortable using them, but would not recommend for this pool.

They work for our pool and on our fishing boat.
