Welcome to our forum.
Yeah our Coleman salesman said that they will be using this super heavy duty light material for insulation and structure. That's funny you mentioned that because he said the same thing. Some space age stuff. I think Coleman is thinking out of the box for the years to come and may suprise alot of people. New space age stuff when you thought hot tubs were at there best. HEAT REFLECTIVE CARBON BASED SUPER DUTY ALLOY METALS with CARBON FLUEX JETS and even a GEL FEELING ARM REST WITH SEQUENCERS ON THE WRISTS and every zone of the body for that matter. How does that sound? Good? Yeah I can't wait.
I wet tested the Arctic and...half the jets started coming out and the sales guy said that they were waiting on a new set because they were defective.
Those figures are not unreasonable. According to a report I saw some time ago (from Lucite), in 2005 the top twenty NA manufacturers by unit volume were, in alphabetical order, 1. Arctic Spas2. Artesian3. Beachcomber Spas4. Cal Spas 5. Catalina Spas6. Coast Spas 7. Coleman Spas 8. D-1 Spas 9. Leisure Bay Dreamaker 10. Dynasty Spas 11. Hydro Spas12. Hydropool 13. Jacuzzi/Sundance14. Keys Fitness 15. Marquis 16. Master Spas 17. Nordic18. Softub19. Vita Spas20. Watkins/CalderaThis report gave the annual production volume of these 20 as >7,000 units per year with the top 10 >11,000/yr.
Humm a very interesting and well totally bogus list
Humm a very interesting and well totally bogus list, Nordic does not use acrylic and could not be tracked by Lucite or any other acrylic maker and the same hold true for Soft tub. There are no truly reliable reports of this type that exist for this industry.
I bought this Coleman from the same place as I did 20 years ago. My electric bill is about 5 dollars a month higher as my old FF spa.
