Looking for advice based on experience. Looking at Trevi Matrix and have gotten quotes on a Bruttress Free pool. The same pool is also availiable as a A-Frame which is a Bruttress pool. Which is better. The size i am looking at is a 12 or 15 by 24 which is all the room i have. Thanks
Looking at first above ground pool, got some quotes on Buttress Free

I do not have experience with an oval pool, but my understanding is that both buttressed and non-buttressed are just as good. There is no "better" version from a structural standpoint.
Buttressed = less money
Non-Buttressed = saves space, looks nicer, no buttress to trip over
If space is a concern for you, then maybe a non-buttressed is worth the extra cost.

One caveat with a buttress free oval pool is they cannot have a dugout bottom or "deep end", because of the straps that run under the floor. It's not a common option, but it's a thing.
we have a buttress free oval 12x24 and it's great. No room in the long rectangular yard for buttresses - plus i'd injure myself!! the buttresses are actually kind of buried under the ground - steel L shaped things. 100% love the design. would do again.
