Deep or not to deep (;

I bought a house with a pool already in place. I passed on a house with a "play pool". I wanted a deep end. When adults are all hanging out, we tend to bob around with pool noodles. We have our basket ball goal set up near the place where it goes from shallow to deep - when littles are playing HORSE with the big kids (or adults), we make the adults tread water to do the shots. Kids get to stand in the shallow. Makes the game a lot more fair. At our house we use the deep end as much as the shallow end.

That being said, you aren't going to get money back on adding a pool, so get what you want. Each family uses pools differently, you know best how your family will use yours.
 
My husband almost drowned a couple years ago and scared himself badly. Our above ground 54" is good enough for us. He was okay with the depth when I ordered it. He's a floater but I'm a swimmer. I like deep water but don't need it. If I could have an in ground pool, it'd have a max depth of 6ft.
 
Rob I know I am splitting hairs...but if I don't someone else will. 8'=96", so 92" is 7'8" deep:rolleyes:

Nice catch :). I thought to myself

"92" isn't twelve feet is it?"

Then, since didn't want to be wrong when correcting someone, I flipped the phone to calculator and divided 92/12 which is 7.6666... In haste my mind translated that to 7'6" haha...

Ironic since I hate (and quickly but incorrectly double checked myself) correcting someone if in error lol

Sorry for the thread drift....back on topic.
