miandsh2000 Check out Doughboy-pools.com Doughboy has been the AG industry for 60 years and there is a reason. The top rails (either steel or resin ) are very attractive. My personal favorite is Tuscany, you just have to see it to believe it, plus it has a 100% lifetime warranty on the whole pool! Going down the stright side of an oval should "bow" out because that is how a pool wall wants to naturally rest, so don't let that bother you. W/ doughboy you can also have a deep area up to 7' deep with their expandable liners. Be sure to see that parts will be available for you in the long time future. Doughboy manufactures everything in one place and in the US !!! Plus check out their dleuxe skimmer.....it huge! So big that a hayward will fir inside of it! Good Luck.

Dan, Simply amazing!!!! Today is my first time to this "chat area" on this website and its BLOWING MY MIND AWAY with some of the ill informed suggestions that are coming your way!!!...Be very careful!!! Regarding the following.....No strap ovals, Expandable liners, Burying an AG pool (and voiding the warranty) and doing all of thesae things without "going outside of the Manufacturers specifications"....you only have one choice...DOUGHBOY. GO to website and find out for yourself. THe support is there for you to get all of these answers.. If you need , contact me personally.

Nic, This one is "no brainer"......get a new liner! THe old one is hard to get to line up & high probability of wrinkles. It makes wme question the dealer><?><?<?

Nic, Try going to Dougboy-pools .com......once there go to the Gallery where you will find 50+ pages of deck pics for you to look at. Good luck with your pool and new deck.
