Finally pulled the trigger

[catfan9t]

Well, after a month of searching I finally bought my tub today.  I was at the Artesian dealer wet testing the Saba to get a feel for the jets.  Due the cost I was planning on ordering a lower model Saba and then buy a cover lift on line.  To my suprise the salesman says "you know I have a new shipment coming in and if you would buy this floor model I will make you a good deal".  So, I ended up getting the Saba 46 jet model with the stainless steel jet heads upgrade and Covermate III cover lift (hydralic) for $7,000 out the door (this included taxes).  The tub had been on sale for $7,000 so I figure with taxes and coverlift I got about $1,000 off.  I will post again after I have owned a while and let you know what I think.  Thanks to all on this forum for your help.

Congratulations!
The Saba is an awesome tub. With your souped up 46 Jet model, just buckle up and enjoy the Hot H2o.

Congrats and welcome to the Artesian family!

Artesian really makes a nice tub and if something should go wrong they will stand behind their product.

Enjoy your new tub!!

Good job, now you can move on to the more important questions like: Which wine to drink with which bathing suit.

May you always have hot, bubbly water!!  Once it is installed, that is!!!!!

Cat, great purchase. My dealer has a Saba on the floor. Interesting design. The cool down seat will be real useful, and with two 6hp (3hp continous) pumps in a spa that size, it should rock. Does it have the circ pump or is one of the pumps 2-speed? It should filter great either way. Enjoy.  Jeff
