Any Raident Above-Ground Pool owners out there?

[rdefino]

We are looking at getting an above ground pool. We line in Haverhill, ma.

I've been looking at the Raident pools, which have a lifetime full warranty on the entire pool except the liner, 15yr warranty.

Noe these pools are more money than the regular above ground pools. Anyone own one or have any thougths on it. Are they worth it?

I guess their new line will be a 4tf to 8ft deep above ground coming for next year.

Any info would be great, thanks .

I own a 27' round by Radiant. I like the sturdy sidewall construction. The aluminum sandwiching the foam makes for strong construction. My kids (under 7) can indeed jump off the side of the pool no problem.

I installed it myself. Once I leveled the ground (which is not a great time) set up was fast and easy with 2 people. Putting the thing together was the easiest part of the project.

My concerns thus far:
1) The cap (the rubber stuff that you top the wall with) did not come with enough screws. The cap is flexible rubber and in the three years I have owned it I have multiple places where the cap is ripping away from the wall, as in the screws are pulling through the cap material.

2) When I opened the pool this year the rubber cap was discolored red. It did not wipe off when I tried to clean it. I can see that this part may need to be replaced in a couple of years.

3) You will get multiple strips of rubber cap. Where the strips come together you are given plastic caps. These plastic caps are cheap and do not stay in place well.

3) The paint on the sides are scraping off where the weighted jugs that held on the winter cover came into contact with the side.
