Kelly, the Accolade is a wonderful spa, I occasionally use the one on my deck at the store. However, I have not had much success selling it. I have sold ONE. But, there is a method to this madness:
When I was at the Watkins factory in March, I asked someone in the know "What is the purpose of the Accolade?"
The reply "To help you sell more Envoys, period."
Result for 2005: 42 Envoys sold at $9500 and 1 Accolade sold at $8000. Love that Accolade!
I have it on VERY GOOD authority that Watkins commands 20% of the portable spa market.
