A U.S. federal court has approved a settlement in a class action lawsuit concerning Bestway above-ground pools, specifically those 48 inches or taller with straps extending to the outside of the vertical legs, sold since 2008. The court order comes from the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois in the case "In re: Bestway Above-Ground Pools Litigation, Case No. 1:25-cv-09570."
The settlement aims to resolve legal disputes related to the design and performance of these specific pool models. Details regarding eligibility criteria and the claims process have been made public by the court-approved Settlement Administrator.
Individuals who purchased qualifying Bestway pools are encouraged to review the terms of the settlement. The administrator's notice outlines the steps required to submit a claim for potential benefits before the specified deadline.
