Why 6?


Many spas say they have seating for 6, but  having 6 seats and being able to accomodate 6 adults comfortably at the same time is another thing all togethor.



Do you want a lounger? What other features where you considering? Have you looked at any tubs yet? What where your impressions?

Do you have a budget?


Good luck

Go to the yellow pages and see what spa dealers you have in your area and what they carry. We can then give you a better idea of what to look for. Or go to some of the major web sites and look up whose nearest to you. Ie; to name a few, HotSpring, Sundance, Jacuzzi, beachcomber, marquis, arctic,coleman. I'm sure the ones I've missed will soon put their names in.

LA Spas &  Artesian are also good.
Measure once, cut twice.

In that price range the Sundance Bahia is great value.
People take different roads seeking fulfillment and happiness. Just because they're not on your road doesn't mean they've gotten lost.

Given the price constraint, I'd look at the Jacuzzi J-365.  I tested both the Bahia and J-365.  They are similar, but I  think the J-365 is the nicer of the two, mainly due to the jets.  It should come in at or under $7K.

Well I have  a Tiger River Caspain and obviously thought it was the right tub for me. They are made by HotSpring and I am very happy with it and seem to may fit into you budget.

It was purchased this spring for $7200.(incld cover, lifter, steps, ozone, delivery)

It has 6 seats (plus a couple of cool down seats) but see my previous note about seating.

It's 7'X'7 , 350 gal ( a tad small for the larger folks, but a nice fit for us "normal" folks) :)

It's a 220 unit  (A 220v Vs  a 110 will cost a bit morre, but is considered to be more efficent and powerful).

IT might be one to put on your list to take a look at.,  It's a good solid tub with some nice features (Footpod, waterfall, 2 bucket seats, and some open seating) yet is a bit less money than  other tubs made by HotSpring.
