Welcome to our forum.
Marqui spa has the reputation of changing their warranty from year to year while master Spas warranty remains the same. Marqui used to offer a microban shell and now they don't carry it because they want to go with a shell thats cheaper to make. I live in Grand Rapids MI and its one of the largest hot tub communities in the U.S. because you have 4 manufactures and 10 dealers and no one carries Marqui lol Geee i wonder why, that right their should bring up red flags. The marqui rep for great lakes region is trying to get a dealer to carry his product, our compANY TURNED HIM DOWN. Also if your concerned with safety all master spas are UL listed as self contained spas marqui spas are not UL approved. If you want to check me out on this visit www.ul.com go under certifiaction and type in marquispas and then type in masterspas. The choice is clear my friend
With all due respect to the Happy and helpful Master spa owners who contribute to this board.....Here is something that is taken directly from another board and points to why Master within the spa industry is questioned so many times by other industry professionals....The person claims to be their biggest dealer in the Great Lakes area......and what he mentions here is completely false...."Marqui spa has the reputation of changing their warranty from year to year while master Spas warranty remains the same.

The choice is clear my friend"A few things Marquis is UL listed...he is sorta right about the MicroBan....it is no longered offered as an option it is however now STANDARD on every spa they make....
it just seems that master spa, cal spa, catalina, coast and arctic have more of these horror stories then any of the other brands of spas on the market. it really makes me wonder how in fact these companies and dealers stay in business with the poor reputations they have earned over the years.
