I’m fortunate to have a plethora of dealer options local to me here in San Diego.
Hot springs, marquis, caldera, Sundance, artesian, cal spas etc...
In terms of what’s important to me:
1. Strong reputation, warranty, and local service
2. Sits 5-7, and can be used as a bit of a pool for my young kids during the warm summer months
3. A nice easy step in / cool down seat
4. Depth; I’m 6’2
I’ve narrowed it down to four:
1. Hot Springs Pulse, 2018 floor model $10k, no tax
2. Bullfrog R7, 2016 used for 2 years, returned to dealer. $6500, they are throwing in 18 mo dealer warranty
3. Sundance Hamilton 780, $9200
4. Artesian Island Spas Grand Bahama Elite, $9800
Are these reasonable prices? All include covers and cover lifters, delivery, poly steps, and electrical equipment.
