Hoping to get some help/advice! We just had a 18x33 oval pool installed today. When getting home to look at it, it looks as if the curves are bowed out. I've seen oval pools at friends houses, and they don't look like this. Is this something the installer could correct? I only put about a foot of water in it and wanted to get some advice before filling it 3/4 the way. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you for the reply and help from this thread. I guess I was looking more at that top rail. On the back left and front left and right, it is not in an oval shape like we saw at the place we bought it. Yet the back right is perfect. Just wasn't sure if filling it would correct that.
Sorry for the dumb questions, but it's our first time owning a pool and this was a big purchase for us. Just want to make sure it's done correctly before putting a deck around it. Seriously appreciate the help!
It's the nature of a non-circle above ground pool. You should see how bad the intex style pools bow when filling.
The installer actually told us to stop filling it and are coming out tomorrow. Will definitely keep everyone posted.
Installer came out and they actually shift the curve more to the right and put the top rail back on. Looks better and we are now filling it up.
Again, thank you to you guys for the advice and answering my question. We are excited to enjoy our first ever pool!
