    Digging out a buried pool

    This is awesome, I hope you can uncover the pool and get it serviceable again. I would plan to spend twice as long, and twice as much as what you may have already budgeted...lol :laughblue: But I am rooting for you!

    Polywood Furniture

    @therealschwartz Loose and wobbly, huh? Is this something you have contacted Polywood about? If so, what was their response? I'd hate to have a chair just fall apart as someone starts to sit down...ouch.

    Polywood Furniture

    It sure is! Somebody got a little too happy with assembly on that one, haha. I contacted Polywood through the Chat function on their website. The process couldn't have been easier. An AI bot asked some general questions in order to get me to the right person (and I assume for that person to...

    Polywood Furniture

    Polywood showed up yesterday. We initially bought a painted metal table and chairs. Unfortunately, they started to peel, crack, and rust after only two seasons. I decided it would not be worth the effort to maintain them properly as times passes. I'd rather be in the pool, or just hanging...

    Polywood Furniture

    That doesn't inspire a lot of confidence. Tracking shows our order should be here Wednesday. I hoping I don't run into any issues with fitment.

    Polywood Furniture

    I don't have any experience with them directly, but I've seen Sunbrella get recommended quite a bit. I just received tracking info for our first Polywood order. I'll post some pics once it gets here and is assembled. We have a section of seating that is "built-in" and I'm having some cushions...

    New Gas Heater Choice

    I just pulled up my account online. September was my highest month at $140 total (fees and all), and October was $35. We ended up not swimming much into October and beyond last year. May last year was $11. We got warm weather early and I use a solar cover and the pool gets full sun 90% of...

    New Gas Heater Choice

    We have an 18x36 in ground. I use a solar cover when we're not in the pool, and we get full sun for 90% of daylight hours (so that helps a bunch). For the shoulder months I try to get the temp to 88 and I'll only run the heater as needed. If we're having friends and family over sometimes I'll...
