zephans.
I have myself done alot of research this past month.I feel like i have spent alot of time myself on here trying to fine tune my decision. I originally thought I would buy the pool this fall ready for next spring, however they said they could get it in w/in 2 wks. However, I want to be prepared and ready for the installers, electrical, trees moved, some trees trimmed prior to, etc.
So, I am going w/ my orig. thought to research and study and go for the right thing.
What I have found that I like about esther w better than the "well known doughboy" and other models is the aluminum lifetime waranty walls vs. steel. Don't care what you do to steel, it won't out live aluminum.
Consider that.
Glad I started this post, started out boomin, for being a newbie.
Thanks ALL OF YOU.
