Welcome to our forum.
wewannahottub, what turned you off with the Hotspring line? Just curious.
When I visited my local HS dealer ... my wife bought into the story that all other spa's were not healthy for women. Scott
Well I know this - I wouldn't want my wife in anything but a Watkins product. 8-)
Hey out there, you HS dealers??I know I have yapped alot about what we want to look at--Arctic, Dynasty, Artesian, and Jacuzzi,....and I know some of you HS guys would like to see me try a Grandee--still not interested--but, even though I have griped about the waranty being less on the Limelight line, I am still interested in what the Pulse will look like. I have been able to find a spec sheet, but no pix. I was wondering when the Pulse will be released??Thanks guys--I know I have PM's out to a couple of you for the same info. WWHT [smiley=dankk2.gif]
I'm curious as why a Hot Springs dealer would say no other spas are healthy for women. What it the reason they give?Thanks,Fred
It's too bad some have to sink to such a level as to say anything to try to get a sale. Fred
I think wewannahottub will tell you that it is the size that matters, her husband is large and HS is too small.When I visited my local HS dealer at first I was excited because he serviced what he sold and my wife bought into the story that all other spa's were not healthy for women. Also the Envoy was a very uncomfortable tub for my family and underpowered. I think the two biggest problems from my point of view is that HS needs more water volume at the jets and I have been put off by the attitude that if it is not a Hot Springs then it isn't a good spa. Hot Springs makes a great product but it isn't the best and only option. BTW Sundance has the same attitude but they do have more action at the jet IMHO. I look at HS and think they hit it right in the 80's and then said if it ain't broke don't fix it and have rode that reputation for a long time. My guess is that Watkins stays the course with HS and tries new ideas with the other lines like the new Limelight. Maybe that is the right and safe marketing approach. Anyway Harley is very successful and so is Hot Springs, if I were to buy a HS the Grandee would be the tub for me. Scott
