Disclosed is a collapsible container, such as an above-ground pool, having side walls with some level of transparency. The container may include a base, a side wall joined to the base, and at least one transparent portion of the side wall. The transparent portion may comprise a clear material strong enough to support the pool structure without the need for a reinforcing material. Such a design may be stronger, more durable, and allow for clearer viewing than conventional above-ground pools employing conventional portholes. Such a design may allow for larger portions of transparent material than traditional pools. For example, in some embodiments, half of the side wall could comprise a transparent portion. In some embodiments, the entire side wall could comprise a transparent portion. Additionally, the pool may have improved portability and storability characteristics that are superior to those of conventional pools.
An improved drain for an above-ground pool is disclosed. A variety of above-ground pool types are considered. Above-ground pools must be drained after use before being stored in a lengthy and time-consuming process. The improved drain can advantageously remain open during the draining process allowing for improved drainage. The drain can comprise a plug member and a locking member. The plug member can be configured to attach to the locking member when open. This and other embodiments are disclosed herein.
