Our 15'x25' above ground pool burst open and 10,000 gallons of water came pouring out. Needless to say, we are in need of a new pool.

We stopped today at two pool places in Nassau. One sells other manufacturers pools and one sells only their own. Very different prices, warranties and installation fees.

Has anyone recently purchased a pool and if so, from whom?

We are considering replacing the 15x25 or going with a 21" round.

I recently retired from the pool business. And my life is so much better already.

Avoid Island Rec.
Brothers 3 or maybe Backyard Masters.
The quality control in the above ground pool business isn't the greatest no matter who you go with.

These are exactly the companies I was looking to/staying away from. Thanks.
