Great Northern Hot Tubs?

[ciekay]

I am thinking of buying a Great Northern Hot Tub because it has great depth. Does anyone have experience with Great Northern Hot Tubs?

Thanks,

I have not heard of them before, but judging by their website they are very basic with very few jets. This may not be a bad thing depending upon your needs in a hot tub.  What things are important to you besides depth?   There are many reputable hot tub manufacturers that make a deep spa.  One thing that doesn't make sense to me is that their site says that they have no footwell.  This seems kind of odd to me and may not be comfortable.  Since they are factory direct you can't even sit in it dry.

I also noticed that they don't list their warranty on the site.  Inquire about the warranty and who will perform the work if it fails.  If they say that they have a tech in your area, I would ask for his contact info and call him.  This may be the perfect tub for you but I would certainly compare it to other options before making a decision.

Good luck!  If you do end up with this tub, I would love to hear your review on it.

Check out either a Nordic Warrior or a Nordic Crown XL.  Both are 40'' deep and have more jets plus you would be able to see one in person.  Those tubs seem overpriced for what they are

That's to bad. I have seen a few GN's and they seemed pretty good. There was nice wood work and they were inside nice homes lower levels with views. I assumed they were indoor designed tubs. I like that. I never worked on one but being from MN I have seen a few. I'll build ya one....

Sorry for my poor response, earlier
 I was on my train ride home..   What I was trying to say is I looked at GN's website and they clearly state that they sell kits.  At least, imo.

I purchased a hot tub from Great Northern about 4 years ago.  Loved it! Roll top is a must, light, convenient to open and just hop right in.  We set it up just outside the back door of our house in Maple Grove, Minnesota.  Great Northern folks were, well, "great".  They fitted the seats just right for me(6') and my wife(5'2"), then delivered and setup the tub. We used it all year-no problems at all. We called it our "Minnesota swimming pool".
We recently sold our house and downsized into an apartment, so I moved the hot tub it to my nephew's house in Illinois.  He and his wife love it.

There's seems to be a lot of that going on around here.
