I have been looking a tubs for several years, and decide I am getting one this year. My concrete was poured yesterday and now I just need to make a decision. Previous to this year I was pretty much fixed on getting the HS Rhythm, it was in my budget and I like the HS brand. I would love to move up to the lime light series since they had circulation pump, and ozantor and the better warranty, but the price was out of my range. So as I started looking again this year I stopped at family leisure and they had tropical seas oahu model that I actually liked. They are build by artisian, had a lot on my check list: ozone, cir pump, 5 year warranty. When I wet tested the tub, I found the neck jets to be not as comfortable as I had hoped and also the jets were very loud when running. I went back to my HS dealer and he had recent became a marquis dealer as well. I wet tested the V94. I really liked the tub, I liked the jets, the control, the dealer. But with that came $1400 more, no cir pump, and 3 year warranty. I could move down to the V84 and save about $500.
Looking for any insight in helping with the decision. Any help or comments on either tub. I am leaning toward paying the extra $1000 and hope marquis lives up to their reputation, but $1000 is a big chunk of my budget.
