I haven't ever seen this published.  I'm sorry if it's a dupe.

The big shocker to me was Dimension 1's rating of a 6 for the shell.  I think the shell's great...evidently someone doesn't like it. :-?

Anyone know the criteria for any of this?

I like how Softubs skirting ranked the same as pheonix's   .  

you should post this on the other site, as Keys and Hydro scored consistenly poor.

Who are these people and where did they come from?  The site is a little light on that info.

Look at that rating for Marquis!  What a load of cr*p.  Where is my torch and pitchfork?

What is the criteria for the ratings and who did them? From all the negatives I've read on this board for the past couple of years about Cal Spas I was surprised to see them get such a high rating. :-?

Man I  just love those rating things..it takes all the work out of researching. I just wish I saw this before I sunk $10,000+ into my Marquis. Shoot, my tub is only 0.7 points better than the Soft Tub.  :'(Considering that Soft Tub has a comparable warranty, and only lacks in options, I really threw my money away. Sure wish I found this obviously well researched, credible,analysis. I guess I can be consoled with the fact that at least my tub has better insulation than the Soft tub. :-/

Rich I think the guys that did this are probably the same guys that were picking out the balls for the Powerball lottery.  You can only make one appearance for that venue and they need jobs.

Boni, I apologize and humbly withdraw my quick-fire, snap judgment post.  I did not see the Marquis rating and based on what I have heard, it does seem awful low.  In truth, I was blinded by the Hot Spring 10, which affirmed how smart of a consumer I is.
The above post has been corrected.       Sorry.    

(but at least Marquis is rated at one tenth of one percent above Phoenix!!!)

Jacuzzi 10 across the board Sundance a 9.0 doesnt make sense

  Then throw in infinity spa's with a 10??  I believe are sold at Costco??


 Someones on crack.

It's yet another scam ratings site. There's been a few over the years that turn up every now and then. If I had to guess, I'd say the site is related to either PDC Spas or Infinity Spas................. and they're trying to "convince" people they're equal to Hot Spring Spas and Jacuzzi.

[East_TX_Spa]

Yep...take the 2 biggest names in the spa industry and set your company up to compare equally with them.  It would be fun to find out exactly who's behind it.

Oh wait... GUARANTEED it belongs to Infinity...... They have a big old award from the site posted on their homepage.

[East_TX_Spa]

Sure looks like it.  Another craptastic carbon copy cookie cutter crudmuffin generic spa brand cluttering up the landscape.

They call it a "Jacuzzi" but it's really a Marquis.  Funny anyways!

Hey Rich, I wasn't targeting you with my remark. I was just trying to point out that it was obvioulsy bogus information.  

Again, I will say that this forum is probably one of the very best places to find true information about purchasing a hot tub. Looking at a chart prepared by who know who tells you nothing. All that contribute here share opinions good or bad and they are, for the most part, genuine. Hopefully anyone with $$$ to invest in a tub, will look a bit deeper than that goofy site.
