Welcome to our forum.
The gpm on the foot jets in the Cameo are high volumn intensity. The volumn can be controlled by the diverter valve and the intensity by the air venturri's. You can adjust the pressure and intensity to your particular desired level as sensitivity to everybody's feet will be different. They are certainly going to tickle your toes.The Optima foot jets are smaller and pass fewer gpm, but you have the same control over volumn and intensity.You're right about color, the maxxus is only available in three colors sand not being one of them.You should water test the Cameo and compare the foot jets to your impressions to others you have tested.
Mowgli, I thought you are a tall person & the optima was a little scrunched for you (so the cameo would be no different). I originally wanted a sand or sahara color but the platinum really grew on me.Two weeks & counting I'm just finishing my deck addition can't wait!
