This thread belongs there anyway.

I didn't include the cost of the oil/filter if I were buying it to do it myself and I didn't include the cost of the oil change at the local oil change place. I did this for a reason because I was segregating out the labor and what it is worth. I don't use the dealer. And the oil change place is on my way to the freeway on ramp going home. 2 blocks from my office and across the street from the grocery store I like. It's always waiting for me when I get done shopping and they don't mind me leaving the shopping cart at their place.

Chevrolet recommends 10,000 between changes. The oil company recommends 3000. I choose to do it at 5-6 thousand.

How come you haven't bought the tub yet?

I just ordered it.

[Jacuzzi Jim]

  Great!   You should tell us what it is so we can maybe get this thread to 12 pages, and bumped down to the beat a horse section.. 

  Kidding aside, glad you felt confident enough to purchase it.. 

[rosewoodsteel]

Yep, I picked up a ThermoSpa Manhattan.   The guy said it was one great tub!

Wow what made you choose that?  Hopefully you are one of the lucky ones!

[Jacuzzi Jim]

  I think Jacuzzi has changed a few things, since they bought them..  Time will tell!

The guy spends good money and buys a spa..(doesn't ask for anyone's specific opinion on it) and you say "wow what made you choose that"..I realize most of you "professionals really don't like me or anything I say but that's just pathetic!..
Rosewood gl with your spa!..and like Jim said it's now a jacuzzi:)

[rosewoodsteel]

Thanks, Guys!
He  said it was one of the best spas made, so I'm real stoked.
They gave me an internet price on it, too.

[rosewoodsteel]

Their rep told me that this tub sets the standard for hot tubs.   It has patented throttle valves, a removable serving tray and 74 jets.    You just don't see anything like this every day!

After years of working on them I think that's a very fair statement. I'm sure he paid real big money for it. Hopefully since the jacuzzi buyout things have changed but Andy tournas is one of the biggest scumbags I have ever met in this industry and as far as I know he is still in charge of the day to day operations over there

[brillskill]

I really just meant..even if it is the biggest piece of junk,he already bought it so y not just wish him well..

[rosewoodsteel]

You guys don't think this is a good tub?   I got the internet price.

[Hottubguy]

Because I'm hoping it hasn't been 3 days yet and he still has time to cancel. I wish him well and all but I would rather see him buy almost anything but that because of all the nightmares I have gone through with them over the years. I haven't seen anything they have put out in the last year or so but if you knew what I know about them you would say the same thing

Did you read any reviews on them anywhere or even just visit their facebook page?

[rosewoodsteel]

I saw a few bad reviews, but frankly, when I went on the Hot Springs website, their very own customers were ripping them apart.   How do you know what to believe or not to believe?
