I have left mine out for the last 3 years! I empty it and flip it upside down, only because my inflatable lid deflates  so causes it to dip and rain water gets in. Then come sprin I give it a good clean and fill it up. I did take my pump indoors for the last 2 years but thus year gone I left it out as I was heavily pregnant and couldn't carry it. But all still clean and works fine.

@lupe637 my lid does that. Spend all winter unclipping it and letting the rain water fall inside

We have had our one for over 5 years now. The first 2 years I put it back in the boxes it came in. But the last two I just stored the pump part in the shed and turned it on it side, up against the fence.

I leave mine on all year and we use it throughout the year. I have a Canadian spa inflatable which is designed to be used all year even in the snow.

@tris8335 my Canadian spa one is due next month I can’t wait
by (280 points)
@pancake you will love it. The main reason I bought it is that you can use it all year down to -15. Enjoy
