Fantastic thread for your pool build. It really takes people through the ups and downs you've experienced. That's so great for others to read to help them get through their own disappointments and discouragements.
Let me tell ya'...... With a view like that, all these cares will melt away when you see those kiddos swimming in that gorgeous setting. Your design is fabulous. I know it is more difficult and expensive to build with slopes, but I am a bit envious. I just love multi levels in a yard especially with a pool. But I'm not sorry, as it turns out, it would be ridiculous for me to have multi steps etc. Just getting too old!!!!
You're a wise, wise person because you're really listening to these experts about changes, upgrades, etc. They truly know what they're talking about. And you'd be surprised at the people who desperately need their advice but don't seem to listen. I should have been more alert myself in the beginning. But I found this site a tad too late in that I was committed to another pool forum with much less activity at that time. But I found TFP soon enough, and they've made a huge difference for me.
In a heart beat, I would go with the M5 robot like Patrick's (can't remember if its name is Robie or Steven.... LOL!). For me though, the Polaris might work better for my mobility issues. But one mis-step from that Polaris (or the electric bill), and it's gone. I'll get an M5 from Santa.
I can't wait to see everything begin for you! Soon, soon, soon, soon! (maybe your PB heard that my chant). And entertain us with pictures anyway. Just ones of the views will be great! (like you have nothing else to do, right?!) Thanks for sharing - not sure why I wasn't here sooner....... Take care. Suz.
