  • Hot tubs are not for soaking, they are for selling

put those numbers up! How many spas does each brand sell each year. I think it is alot different than you think. Especially in this economy I seriously doubt that Hot Spring is #1. Post numbers from all the other big companies in the last 12 months and I would bet that Hot Spring is not #1. Until these numbers are posted it is a simple claim and that is all it is. Do not take someones word for it I say prove it!

As far as I know Watkins outsells all others, has more dealers than all others, is represented in as many countries or more than all others.

I have never seen numbers posted from other manufacturers, nor have I ever seen another tub maker openly dispute the claim - and then back it up with real, hard, numbers.

The numbers I have seen come from acrylic suppliers, parts suppliers, even trucking companies who ship the things across the country.

 8-)


    Im retracting what I said it's not worth the chit, I know how many we sell and I have a very good idea how the local HS dealer does, this town isn't that big, plain and simple I know we sell more.

I have tried to reply and have no icons to do so, is this an evil attempt to take away my freedom of speech? ;)


This certainly has been moved to the proper place but can we continue to lock Spaman out?

It would be priceless to see his reaction if everyone else could post here except for him. With Jim gone he's now our official Colorado conspiracy theorist!

Tom, that little triangular sign in front of the ONE means less than....less than one. Don't worry though, I don't think we've sold one in Longview, TX either

If you can't sell it on eBay, it may not even qualify as landfill.

Retired (mostly) from the industry after 33 years...but still putzing around with a consumer information website, and trying to sell obsolete owners manuals

Oh, don't pop my balloon.  One sale in 14 years would qualify.
