We our buying our first spa and have narrowed our choice down to the Sundance Cameo 880.We have a price of 8,995 dollars and don't know if that is too high? Any help would be great as we are new to this spa thing.

That is a green light to go. �What was included in that price? �That is a very good price. �What else have you looked at?

Thanks for the reply we also like the Hot Springs Envoy which is 8,650 dollars. When we went back to Sundance he sold us on the whirlpool and the hugh filter.Any suggestions would be helpful.At Sundance the Cameo comes with steps,cover lifter,extra filter and chemicals. But so does the Envoy at HoSprings. We started our Hottub search in the beginning and only wanted to spend between 6 and 7 now we are up to 9 so really need to know if we are doing the right thing.

We ordered, and are about to take delivery on July 11, of the Sundance Cameo!!!

With what you got included, I'd say your price is very good!!!

homer16, you are certainly NOT doing the wrong thing. Both manufacturers are excellant choices and either choice is a good decision. You have indicated a very good price for both, however the Cameo has more content than the Envoy (i.e. for what it's worth, air injector system with aroma therapy, exclusive fluidex and vortex jets, as well as whirlpool jets, and I think the cabinet material is a good thing to compare closely).

I believe the SD price to be favorable and justifies a little higher price than the Envoy which is also an excellant product. Two very good choices that do not allow for a mistake. You will own either one for a very long and enjoyable time.

I don't know much about the Envoy, but I absolutely love my cameo. I got the built in speakers/subwoofer option, and though expensive, I'm now convinced it was worth it. I have the 2004 model... so no waterfall. Gosh... darn. lol. Anyhow, I sit in just about every seat, using all the different jets. Love the whirlpool jets at times, love the power going to the seat jets the other times... and when it's loaded with people I have everything spread equally.

Not sure how well the Sunscents works though... seemed to work for a day, then maybe my nose clogged up or something.

Anyone have a good experience with it so far? How long should one of those little pebble packs last?

No Free Stereo?

Sigh.

We've given up on the pebble packs. Can't say how long they last, since I can hardly smell them when they are new. Even Mrs. Brewman, who can outsniff a bloodhound, has trouble detecting their scent.
There are a lot of liquid and crystal scents you can try that you can actually smell, and they don't require the use of the blower like the jet dry packs do. Not that there's anything wrong with using the blower.

Brewman, try using the "pebble pack" as the delivery system and apply essential oils to them rather than purchasing new ones all the time. That keeps them fresh and also delivers a heavier scent. Spazazz also works great but that is introduced directly to the water.

Brewman · « **Reply #9 on:** June 29, 2005, 11:18:47 am »

I'll give that a try. Thanks for the suggestion.

Mine arrives today!!!!

We chose the Envoy because it had 5 completely different seats and my wife likes the moto massage. The Cameo seemed to have only 3 different seats. and the tri x filters are great as a bonus.

We bought our sundance cameo in the middle of May and we paid $9200 which included the cover lifter, steps, stereo, oznator, beginner chemnical set, delivery and set up. We got a good deal because the color I choose the blue was only in stock with a stereo which we really didn't have to have but they made us a deal we couldn't refuse. We love our tub and have been in it just about every day since we have gotten it.
Enjoy

It took me 3 hours to find a Spa forum and finally found this one. So far it�s very helpful. As a first-time spa buyer it only took me two days to narrow my search down to the Cameo OR Jacuzzi 365 or 355. Today, the Sundance dealer in Southern California quoted me at $7600 with the cover lifter, steps, oznator, beginner chemical set, delivery and set up. I told to Sundance dealer that the Jacuzzi is very comparable in the specs and priced at $7695 with a bonus of $300.00 if I paid by check. Jacuzzi is running the same bonus items as Sundance. Tomorrow my goal will be to get the Sundance dealer down to $7400.
Buying a spa seems much more difficult than buying a car!
