The following is a copy of a email response to a Recent Letter about the "conflict" between Really Ez Pools and Us. We don't seek top stir the water, but when an disreputable threatens even the safety of our customers we have to say something.

Dear xxxxxx

There are several problems with the pool company you are referring to.  It is not our policy to make enemies, or talk badly about any pool company, but we felt we had to mention this pool company.

 
The first problem you have already run into.  You can't contact them, they have so many problem and failed pools out there, they do not answer their e-mails and they answer the phone (when the do) as Mike's Pizza
 
The real problem though is with the pools.  They are sub-par quality and they fail at an alarming rate.   The man behind the company was the son of the man who founded KD pools, the first and best known portable pools.  The son started his own business (which has had several name changes) and traded on his father's good name to inveigle the top pool manufacturer (Cornelius Pools) and the Top Internet Pool Retailer (Arthur's Pools)  to sell his pools. Trusting in the name of the father we both purchased a quantity of his pools.  As  they started failing we stopped selling the pool and Cornelius sent theirs back to the company.
The company simply refused to support his products and it's warranties and refused to answer the phones.  Only by threatening legal action were some customers able to get relief. The rest of the customers came back to Arthur's Pools and Cornelius and demanded their money back.  This nearly sunk the pool company and caused us hardship.   More than a year later this person who heads the company, refuses to answer phone calls  and  emails.   Even though we both have websites and we can can warn and he can vent, you have to compare our history. His two year old pool company has a record of near 100% pool failures, horrible customer service (if any) and hides from it's problems. We have been in the above ground pool business since just after World War 2 and have sold thousands of pools worldwide.  We do business with reputable companies who back up their product (except for our one mistake of trusting his father's name). we do it right.  Below you will find quality comparison photos.

Hi,  both you and ReallyEZ pools have a pool size I'm interested in.  I came accross something where Arthur's and EZ seemed to have some kind of issue.
 
Before I make my final decision, could you please tell me what that was about.  Are there problems with the EZ pool product that I haven't been able to find.
 
I have emailed them, twice, but they haven't responded and I can't seem to find anything, regarding what this is all about.  Only their online response to something Arthur's must have said.
 
I hope you don't have any problem shipping to Alaska.....I noticed you ship to England....and....we're closer.
 
bye..........thanks
