LA Spa Heet

[spaman--]

I think Cal Spas is in a very great Hot tub even better than LA Spas and Hotspring. It's seems after wet testing that LA Spas is really overrated not enough quality jets and very low reliability. The price for the LA Spas is only playing for the Hollywood crowd while, Cal Spas can competed any day with LA Spas and Sundance.

OK but now we're getting crazy!

I have doubts about Cal competing with Sundance.  We don't need to go into details.

In Colorado we topple Sundance! With Cal Spas.  

We do not even consider the dealers here as real competition.

So if I have this right, Terminator and bhawes both think their kid is smarter than the others, and Spaman and Kyle think their kids are smarter than those kids.  How nice for you all.

No, just pointing out how pointless it is to make a claim like bhawes did.  It serves no useful purpose.  Spaman was doing the same.

I think beans in a tub bath is even better than Cal Spas, LA Spas and Hot spring. It seems after wet testing black beans and lima beans is really overrated not enough quality gas and very SBD. The price for refried is only playing for the Hollywood crowd while Pinto competed any day with refried and kidney beans.

Pinto's also provide a smoother ride.

I think we got it.  I was just pointing out how pointless the pointing out was (with a pointless post myself )  Say that real fast three times.

I have to be honest here.  This is exactly why I have grown tired of this forum.  Someone came on and asked about a brand that isnt one of the "Big 5". When someone else offers their OPINION that they THINK LA is better than HS & SD the claws come out.  Thats terrible.  To say it "serves no useful purpose" is crazy.  There are no definitive studies that PROVE HS is better than anyone.  Or that CAL is or whatever.  The best spa is dfferent for each consumer each sale.  You are stating an OPINION based on your experiences.  That OPINION serves "no useful purpose" to the millions of consumers that chose NOT to buy a Hot Spring.  or Sundance or whomever.
I have stated this before.  I sold Hot Spring for over 20 years.  Went to all their training.  But now that I travel around to various dealers I have learned that there are many different spas out there that are very good choices for a variety of reasons. When we give advice here I wish everyone would realize that.

[East_TX_Spa]

I simply offered my opinion as well.

Meanwhile the parent of the truly smart kid just smiles and says, "How nice for you!"

Then the kid with a mohawk comes in, beats up the smart kids and goes hot tubbing with their girlfriends...

AMEN!  

When I returned from a few month absence, I noticed that several regulars have quit posting, or post very seldomly.  I PM'd a couple to see what was going on, and they informed me that they have quit checking in because the tone of this forum has changed.  One reason was partisan attacks like you just described.  Another was the predictable bickering that certain topics always generate.

It seems we have lost some of the leadership that was provided by the "old school" dealers who were careful to keep their biases in check, and realized that consumers come here for help and advice, not to hear the "my brand is best" crap they already got from the salesperson.
