Welcome to the forum!

My advice, in all sincerity, would be to keep searching.  There are much, much better spas out there than the one's you have listed.

This forum is a great place to disseminate information in order to make an informed decision.

Edited-- I had never heard of Elite, but I see that they're made by MAAX Spas, so they're probably better quality than the other 2 brands listed.

swell-tub


   Friends of ours have had an Elite tub for about 5 years.  No real problems to speak of, they did have their circ pump replaced under warranty.  They do admit that their tub is not very well insulated and they spend a lot more on hydro then we do.  Term's right, they are a lot of tubs out there, take your time look at a  lot of them.  Narrow it down to 2 or 3 and schedule a wet test to help you make your decision

                Good luck with your search

I think Artesian has a corporate store in Las Vegas. I seem to remember someone here buying from them.

$15,000 for a spa can buy almost any quality brand spa. All the spas the Spatech listed are good quality spas. One of the moderators has a Dynasty spa and says good things about it.

My only advice is to look at all the spas available to you before settling on any. The only real things to consider are lounge or no lounge, shell color and skirt color. Other than that look for the one that is the best for [size=14]YOU[/size]. All quality spas will be a good choice. Try to wet test to make sure you fit and like the feel of the tub. If you get a bad feeling from the dealer - walk away.

Have fun looking!

Hey, only I decide who's on my list. I can't put them on it without kicking someone else off so they'll have to sit on my bench for now. :)

Fair enough, the companies you listed are some of the better names


How about combining all the Watkins produsts and then adding a couple of others ;)

I looking at buying my first spa for my backyard here in Las Vegas. I almost signed the papers on a Coast Spa Radiance, but I saw some negative info on the web. I'm now looking at Elite ES and some Dynasty models. I want a quality tub that won't be a maintainance nightmare and will hold up over time. Does anyone have any advice?

Thanks,
Scott  :)

Consider what the warranties are.  I don't know if its still the same, Dynasty offered a 5 year no fault warranty and they are excellent in honoring it.  Dynasty and Coast use a lot of the same parts, especially for jets.  In fact, Dynasty didn't offer a pulsating jet, but Coast did, so I bought a couple for my Dynasty tub.

ignore them both. HP means different things for different pumps and tubs. Air blower.....personally I really wanted one, but never use it. It is louder, and doesn't do much therapy-wise, but might be nice in the summer to feel the cooler air coming in.

Just go with what feels best in the wet test. Your body will know which has the stronger jets where you need them.
