I assume that you are shopping for a pool and are looking at an above ground. I have had three above ground pools. No nothing was wrong with them. We just keep moving. To answer the question: NO, the uprights are not buried. They are not even dug in to the ground. Make sure you pay a professional to set it up, it's money well spent. The ground should be leveled, then a stabilizer ring is put down in the shape of your pool. Then the uprights are placed in that ring. The uprights really do nothing more than join the top and bottom rails of the pool and give a little stability to the wall.
Enjoy.

Above-Ground Swimming Pools: The Economical Alternative to In-Ground Pools?
Once you have decided to add a swimming pool to your home, the next thing to decide is whether or not to install an above-ground swimming pool or have an in-ground swimming pool built. There are many things to consider when making this decision, the most important of which are cost and how the pool will affect the equity in your home. If the thought of spending upwards of $20,000 or more to install an in-ground swimming pool on your property is keeping you from having a pool at all, then it may be in your best interest to think about installing an above-ground swimming pool. Above-ground pools are not only considerably cheaper to buy, install and maintain, but they also can be made to look just as appealing as an in-ground pool. With the proper installation and optional decking, you can turn your back yard into a welcoming oasis for optimum entertaining in the summer months. An above-ground swimming pool, even a deluxe model, will only set you back a few thousand dollars, a fraction of what you could ultimately spend on building an in-ground swimming pool, after you take into consideration the excavation and landscaping costs to ready the ground for the construction of the pool, not to mention plumbing and electrical costs, building permits, etc. Most municipalities will allow you to purchase and erect an above-ground swimming pool without obtaining a building permit, and because the pool is set above-ground in most cases, there are no excavation fees associated with the construction. When it comes to home equity, the county tax assessor’s office for the area in which you reside determines whether or not an above-ground swimming pool adds value to the property. While in-ground swimming pools are a sure guarantee that your home equity will rise considerably, in many cases, above-ground pools will not add value to the property, per se. However, that is not to say that if and when you decide to sell your property, you can’t ask a higher price for your home taking into consideration that there is a pool on site, regardless of the fact it is an above-ground pool.
