Welcome to our forum.
What others are in your area...
I would suggest the Optima. I just purchased the Majesta by SD which is a slightly smaller spa than the Optima but built very similar. The Optima is a very nice spa and if I was going bigger, I would have picked that one. Good luck in your decision.
D1 But they are out the dealer told me ........... in no uncertain terms they will NOT negotiate.......lifter extra steps extra..... etc......... so keep it! There is a Dynasty dealer around so I will check him out.I did like the Hydropool and the dealer is very local. I am looking at the 800 with steps, ozone, cover, lifter, in the Titanium series for right at $9000 thats a little more than I wanted to spend but............ It's REAL NICE I may work on him. Thanks again Gary
don't be proud, the dealer was simply being HONEST with you. Are you more likely to buy something of lesser quality that has a high price but they will negotiate and play your game, or maybe it's their game.Be careful, some could be better at the game. You seem offended and turned off buy the honest dealer with a notably good product. Why is that?Check out and do your research on Hydropool and see where it comes in on product and price. You could be looking a a $6,500 tub that starts at $9,000, maybe not.
I also like the Master 850 [uh oh]! Any opinions on that? thanks again Gary
Windsurfdog likes Master... I don't. I think the quality and performance is OK ( I used to sell them) but I have a tremendous dislike for the company itself and how they do business.
Gary,Since you are a consumer and not a retailer, the marketing practices of the company will be a moot point for you. As salesy said, I do like my LSX and I'm glad I didn't get caught up in the marketing angst which seems to follow MS at this board. My dealer knew I was in charge of my purchase and any marketing smoke and mirrors would be for naught....that comes from being an educated consumer who IS NOT IN A HURRY and cannot be pressured. If you are sold on the therapy and confident in your dealer, then by all means buy that spa, whichever manufacturer it is, and certainly don't buy until you are sold on both.
