Narrowing down list 5 left

[pgezee]

Greetings,

I am interested in 11 spas, having trouble finding anything wrong with these.  I am trying to verify that each has top notch filtering and chemical options for clean, healthy water.  After talking to one dealer, I am more confused.

I don't know which replaces the other.  Let me know if you can clarify my current understanding:

UV combined with microfilters and ozone, will still require chlorine, bromine, biguanide or mineral sanitizers?

If you have an opinion on my list, please reply...

Jacuzzi J-235
Coleman 7' Lounger
Costco Divine DL-420
Arctic Coyote Maricopa
Sundance Altamar
Artesian Island Antigua
Cal Spas D1780L
Barefoot Millennium
LA Spas Oasis
Clearwater St. Andrew
PDC Spas Boulder SE

Thanks alot!

  Um yeah you got a couple of hours   
 
 That list is pretty much spread all across the board as far as features, sizes, prices and quality.    I would pick the Sundance and the Jacuzzi but not that mdl if trying to compare it to the Altimar.  Narrow your list down to about 3 or 4 wet test and see what you like and fits your needs. 

  In no real order

Jacuzzi
Sundance
Artesian
Arctic
Clearwater

Throw the rest out and add HotSpring,  Good luck with it and have fun.

Any positive/negative comments?

I have an artesian island antigua and love it.  We have only had it for about 4 months so I can't tell you about how it holds up long term. However I have been impressed with it in the short term.  The jets are powerful the seating is comfortable.  I love the lounger (I know some people don't like these). The pillowfall is kind of lame and I never use it but overall I am happy with the purchase.
