Hello everyone. I have used, but have not owned hot tubs. We are moving to Indianapolis. I want to buy hot tub for my wife for christmas. She will be the primary user. She already has visions of parties and making new friends. I have tried to do my homework, but could use some advice. The budget is $5500-6500 for the spa. The makes that are available that I am considering include Hot Springs, Sundance, Caldera, and Artesian. The dealers have been good. They don't knock the competition, but obviously promote their own product.
What models should I be looking at from the respective manufacturers to get as close to as possible and apples to apples comparison. I tend to be a bang for the buck purchaser. The last few days the temperature has been in the single digits, so efficiency is important, but therapuetic benefit, reliability, and longevity are also considerations.
Help!
