    Thanks for all the advice so far. Bad news is my husband accidentally put a hole in the liner while scrubbing tonight shortly after my last post. We had a flash flood all over the back yard. So no more pool

    We are planning on fixing and or replacing but it might not be for a month or so. I will be back then!!!
    Thanks again.

    Yowch!! Get a liner repair kit and patch it if the hole isn't too big. It's quick, it's fast, it's permanent--but it's ugly.

    However, an empty pool is uglier.

    The hole is about 3 feet wide and on the bottom of the pool near the side, so not sure that would be fixable.

    We actually would like to get a new one if we can afford it but have no idea where to begin. Do you have any reccommendations on a type of above ground that is nice? The pool we have is SUPER old and we basically were just waiting for it to break! Thanks anyway!!
