Used Aqualeader pool
Aqualeader pool
I am thinking of purchasing a USED Aqualeader Illusion pool. It is approximately 10 years old. From looking through your site I have 2 major concerns. The first is that the pool is already taken down. The second is the cost - they are asking $1000 for pool, pump etc...minus the liner of course. After speaking with the widow selling the pool I feel confident that the pool is in good condition with no rust. She stated that the reason she took down prior to selling was to check for rust because part of the pool was buried and she wanted to know that she would be able to sell it. After reading about the Aqualeader it seems that they may be less susceptible to rust. Have you had any experience with this brand? I do not want to throw money away or get into something that I cannot afford to finish. Any advice would be helpful. Thanks! I am attaching pics that were posted by seller on craigslist.
Hi. Aqualeader makes a good pool and not having any rust, after being in the ground for 10 years, is great. One grand for a 10 year old above ground pool is a lot of money. It is also a lot less than a new one. The two biggest factors would be how much equipment comes with it and how old it is. The second is supply and demand. Around here there are lots of used pools to choose from and I would keep looking a while, or make a lower offer. If you are lucky to fine a dozen pools a year for sale in your area, this might be a great deal. The pool looks good, the filter looks very adequate, and with a new liner, it would be as good as new.
