first time owner ( what to buy )

[pedroventura24]

Hi,

I have two offers but not sure what to buy. Hot Spring (Tempo) vs Caldera spas  (Palatino) model ( same price $6500 ) after shopping around. Hot spring dealer 20 yrs in business, caldera spas only 2yrs as a dealer. Same deal with both dealers for Flash model HS vs Reunion Calderaspa $7500.

The first two have basic warranty
5 yrs no leak shell warranty
2 yrs ( shell surface, no leak plumbing, component, echotech cabinet ) warranty

The most expensive

10yrs no leak  shell
7 yrs shell surface
5 yrs no leak plumbing, component, heater warranty

Your comments will be appreciated.

Thanks,

Those are low prices.  The Reunion / Flash should be in the $10k range and the Palatino / Tempo in the $7500 range.  Between the Tempo and Palatino, go with the dealer you are more comfortable with since they are basically the same hot tub.  As for the Reunion and Flash, it would come down to which fits you better.  I sell Flash's over Reunion's probably 5-1.
