Doughboy Pools "BEWARE" of Buying a Doughboy Pool Nationwide

"Doughboy" pools are (not) the best pools on the market any longer.  My first "Doughboy" pool lasted (20-years).  I never had a hole in my liner etc...  I was a "fool" and wanted a new pool with a nicer appearance. 

I purchased another "Doughboy" pool in (2008).  I bought the "BEST" of everything.  Over the first winter, the entire metal guide rail, rusted and fell into the pool.  I called "Doughboy", and they sent me another guide rail.  The second winter, the entire metal guide rail, rusted and fell into the pool.  Needless to say, I no longer have a metal guide rail around my pool, and now I have wrinkles in my liner. 

I am on my second set of metal caps, which are currently rusting and falling into the pool.  I have patched multiple holes in my "Best", "Thickest" (25 - Gauge) liner over the years.  Currently, I have patched several pin holes over the weekend, attempting to find out where the pool is leaking, since I can see the water leaking through my "rusted" metal holes on the side panels.

Unfortunately, in today's world, you "Do Not" get what you pay for.  We paid top dollar for this "Doughboy" (28-Foot-Diameter), round pool, and have nothing but "problems" with it!

I am just trying to get through this summer and am currently researching new pools.
