Relaxing by the pool is the perfect activity for hot summer days. When it's super hot outside, sitting in an inflatable pool can help you cool down — but what if you didn't have to settle for wading in a kiddie pool? A sofa-shaped inflatable pool shared by Inspiring Designs on Instagram looks like the perfect alternative for grown-ups who want to cool down but also want a comfy place to sit.
The large inflatable pool is rounded, with water in the middle that is surrounded by sofa-like seating. It looks pretty darn amazing, but it's sparked mixed reactions on social media.

Unlike a traditional inflatable pool, these pools are designed to look luxurious and stylish. The sofa pool hasn't actually been created yet, but the design idea has attracted a lot of attention on social media. While some loved the concept, others were quick to point out flaws in the design.
The sofa-like seats are meant to match the coziness of your living room, and drink holders allow you to bring your favorite beverage into the pool with you without worrying about spilling it. Still, some thought bringing drinks into an inflatable pool seemed like a bad idea.
One Instagram user described the inflatable pool as "one of those things that seems cool till you actually try it."

Some Instagram users had additional questions (and concerns).
"All you need is shade .. Texas heat will melt that really quick ♀️," one person wrote.
Another person pointed out that "the seats will be sooo hot baking in the sun."
Others had concerns about cleaning and upkeep. "All I think is 'how do you clean that?'" an Instagram user commented. "And I hate that for me. Why can’t I just enjoy it? ."
But others loved the idea. "Please can someone design these ❤️," one person wrote on Instagram.
