Below-ground pools can look sleek and expensive, but sometimes, you just want a classic rubber pool. If you have the Perfect Patio Stuff Pack, then you can download the Functional Rubber Pool.
Since the pool is functional, your sims can hop or dive in and relax. Of course, the pool itself is too small for swimming (as an exercise), so they won't be able to do this. In terms of customization, you can also set the light color for the inside of the pool.
