Great pool place to work with. My only dissatisfaction would be they need a northern location closer to Novi, Commerce somewhere in that area. My wife and I worked with Chris in store and he was very nice to work with. When we ordered our pool, the warehouse called they were phenomenal as well. Our vertical supports were damaged in transit. They rectified the situation immediately and had doughboy send them directly to my house. My pump was also defective and thankfully Chris was helpful in doing warranty exchange expeditiously. I would 100% recommend pool town.

Hi David. Thank you for awesome review! Sorry to hear that you had an issue with pump on top of the damaged verticals from transport. Glad we were able to get everything squared away promptly. We appreciate your business! Have an excellent Summer!
