Clearwater is an excellent tub and I am speaking from a repairman point of view. The controls are Balboa, jets are waterway,(Best in the industry) it has very good filtration and is not fully foamed so any problems in the future are easily resolved. Oh, and the cabinet is insulated very well so you do not have to worry about the energy bill hardly any more than a tub that is shot with foam, which makes it very expensive to repair in the future. AND....all four sides are very easy to open up and get into. And their warranty department is wonderful to work with and easy to reach.
