Welcome to our forum.
I would let the wet test decide.
The bullfrog dealer is newer, the owner opened within the last 3 years I believe. He previously did landscaping and also sold spas with his landscaping business (no idea on brand), he's spas only now. He does the deliveries himself as well as the repairs. He has positive reviews online. He hasn't been as engaging with us as the other dealers we've spoken with. Very hands-off, ask your questions but not going to volunteer any information. It makes my wife nervous that he seems to be a 1-man show. The other bullfrog dealer is a pool builder who sells bullfrog. As a pool builder, they are very popular with a lot of our neighborhood using them. Like I said, I emailed him last week and have not received a response, we've attempted to call several times with no one answering the phone. The D-1 dealer has been in the same place for 35 years, he sells D-1 and Marquis. He has mentioned that he doesn't change lines.The D-1 guy says his method is very simple for maintaining the water, he does the vision cartridge with other stuff but says it's very easy and that if we use his method, we won't have any problems. My wife is very comfortable with this dealer and I can tell it's bothering her that I am leaning towards the bullfrog. She did not wet test because she nearly sliced the end of her finger off making dinner the other day and didn't want to get it in the chemicals. I may go back when she's healed but she's motivated to get this done quickly.
I'm surprised your local dealer doesn't have a Marquis Reward or Epic on display to blow the wet test out of the water. I'm surprised they are pushing the D1
I am pretty confident that you would be fine with the bullfrog,
