Aluminum (Non-Raisable) Seasonal Dock Brands

Does anyone have comments, good or bad, on aluminum, sectional docks from the Dock Doctors out of Vermont?

I'm still old school with wooden, 4x8 sections, and sledgehammering galvanized pipes into the lakebed. Got the kids to do it this year but the sections are old and tired like me.

Thinking of replacing with a similar setup but with aluminum frames, removable decking and footpads so no more hammering pipes into the lakebed.

I like the medium strength version of the Dock Doctors and curious if anyone has used them or if the more popular choice is Shoremaster or FMW.

Thank you.
