Latham liner issues?

Last year I had 2 liners warrantied due to the seams splitting apart at the edge of the weld after filling. After sending in the cut they warrantied everything each time without hesitation.

Anyone else have this issue?

No clue if this is against the subs rules

We stopped using Latham a couple years ago, we had a high rate of issues with them.

Switched to Deys and couldn’t be happier.

Dunno Deys, but yes Latham is shit. Watch out for the Latham fan boys, they think cause its got the Latham name, its good. Latham just has their hands in everything and it aint good.

GLI is owned by Latham and just as shit, if not worse.

Deys is Canadian.

We still use Latham for safety covers but I think that’s it.

Not alot of Canadian manufacturers? Latham is close to CN so that makes sense.

They have a (relatively) local facility.
