Saxon Algebra v Foester's (or any compromise...)

Last year, when I thought but wasn't sure that my daughter could handle Algebra, I bought Foester's (student and TM). I was also investigating Saxon and bought several years' worth so I really look at them (very used, ~$5 @).

We ended what had been a 3-year search for a math program by just settling on Saxon for one full year, and I expected her to go on to the Foester's Alg this year, but she doesn't like it!!!! She likes the 1 lesson per day approach of Saxon (this fits in very well with her personality).

Is Foester's better enough to make an issue out of it, or will Saxon do (considering that altho I want her to study lots of math, I don't think she'll go into the field)?

Thanks very much!
