    No recommendations really . . . except to note that I've seen several of those pools a year or so after installation, and none of them were being used any longer. I would *strongly* recommend trying a unit before you buy one -- it seems to be one of those items that sounds better than it is, at least for most people.

    I'm sure there are some people who like their swim spas after a year, but I don't recall encountering one.

    There's a far cheaper alternative of a pair of bungee-tethers that go on your ankles and allow you to swim in place. Haven't seen it around for a few years, though.

    Those are available through competition swimming outlets . . . . but swimmers don't like using them very much.
