I thought the steel (galvanized walls) with the stainless steel service panel was much better than the aluminum pools without the steel service panel. Am I wrong??? How does one decide to go with aluminum or steel. If the aluminum is better, one would save money buying a pool made of aluminum w/o steel service panel.
