I am the proud owner of A BRAND NEW

[D.P. Roberts]

I ended up with the Silverwood and Platinum color combo.

Are you sure you like that combination? Chestnut and Harvest Wheat is a nice combo too, you know. If you call your dealer back now, you still may be able to change it...

Lots of things factored into my decision.  

1.  It was in my price range $7199 plus tax.  I was gonna hold out for my $7000 price but decided that I had waited long enough.  I was ready to buy.

2.  I like the simplicity of use.  You turn each seat's air either on or off and the diverter valves were very easy to figure out.  

3.  The jets provided the hydrotherapy I wanted on my back and it also had a seat that I could easily scrunch down and hit my neck the way I wanted.    

Great for you, I'm sure you'll love it. Maybe you could have saved another $500 or so by waiting until January when they bring in the new '08s but this is about getting your spa life started and its getting cold so the tubbing season is getting rolling.

Congrats.

No, I definitely like that color combo.  I'm having zero second thoughts.

Yeah, if I played hardball I probably could have saved a little money.  But I don't feel like I got a bad deal at all.  I saw on-line where others bought this tub for $6200 plus tax.  But I wasn't willing to wait any longer for my the ultimate deal.  So my dealer made $2000 on the deal, that's fine by me.

I was satisfied with my deal and my dealer, that's really all that matters to me.  In 2 weeks I will be soaking.  It's gonna be a long 2 weeks.

Are there any books out there that detail how to maintain your spa?  

[Renee]

If you use the search function, there is some great info on this board about maintaining your spa, with links to other places as well.  Do you know which chemicals you're going to use? (i.e. bromine/chlorine/baquaspa)  We had to wait 6 weeks for our hot tub, and that's how I filled my time...researching maintenance issues.  Sounds like you have a lot to do though, if you don't even have your concrete pad yet....

way to pull the trigger.  It feels great doesn't it?!!!!!

Well, it kind of hurt spending that much money.  But I plan to reap the rewards tenfold in the health benefits it will bring.  If I didn't need the therapy, I probably would have held out longer.  

But it is nice to have that off my plate.  The thought of which spa I would buy at what price dominated my thoughts for some time.  So it is nice to have that out of the way.  I now find myself daydreaming about sitting in the 102 degree spa with a nice cold beverage on a brisque or even cold evening.

Congratulations solo.  Any pain you are feeling now, from spending the money, will disappear with your first soak.  Now, get to work on that pad!  When dealers told me that I would sleep so much better, I kinda chuckled.  Sleeping has never been a problem for me.  Oh my word, were they right.  I sleep sooooooooo deeply now, it's unreal.  While I don't have medical issues, like you, my body is so relaxed and pain free.  I wasn't planning on being a daily soaker, but now I can't miss a day.  Enjoy your spa!

Congrats and good going on the price!  Like Tom Petty says?  The waiting is the hardest part.

Wonder why Steve, Solos' biggest supporter, hasn't weighed in with a congratulatory gesture?
