We have been lurking for quite awhile now behind the scenes trying to get as much information as possible from this great forum. After wet testing we have narrowed our choices down to the Prodigy and the Martinique and we need a little help to push us over the edge.
Prodigy is from a smaller local dealer, quoted $6000 for spa, cover lifter, delivery, step and starter chemicals.
Martinique is from one of the big warehouse places and we were quoted $5900 for the exact same setup plus the 50 amp breaker and electrical box.
Our impression after wet tests were that the Prodigy has the open seating and seemed to fit the better half who is 5'3", a little more comfortably.
The Martinique was a little deeper and seemed to have stronger jets and a few more bells and whistle type jets.
I liked the lounger on the Martinique.
Warranty is approximately the same except for the additional 2 years on the cabinet for the Caldera.
Is there something that we are missing to make this easier? Pumps, Filtration, Cost of Operating?
All in all I think that we are leaning towards the Martinique with the prices being equal.
Thanks in advance for the advice.
