About to buy a new inground pool!

Good luck PJM! Nothing beats a backyard oasis, especially if you have kids. Sorry about Swimking, but I've heard really good things about South shore pools. Between our dogs, our kids, and family and friends, our pool gets quite a workout. I wish I did a couple of things differently, mostly I wish I had sleeves put into the patio for umbrellas and volleyball poles. Have fun this summer.

Thanks for the heads up about the sleeves. My heads up for everyone else doing a automatic cover is ask ahead about details & cost of the pouring the concrete box and the stainless steel brackets & pans if you're not using their aluminum lid.

Thanks for that tip. That is what makes Pool Forum work. Everyone sharing from their experiences!

I actually went with swimking for the patio after too many problems with southshore and save $5K
