This thread can also go in another direction, why are most manufactures going to higher and higher hp pumps?  Increasing pressure coming out of the jets so that it is allmost uncomfortable.  I have wet tested newer spas with high hp pumps and was much more comfortable in my old late 80's model that had a one hp, dual speed pump and just a few high flow jets.

Any coments? I feel water flow around a body is much more relaxing than being beat to death.

You won't find that with most "legitimate" manufacturers.
People take different roads seeking fulfillment and happiness. Just because they're not on your road doesn't mean they've gotten lost.

It's very subjective- no spa can deliver what everyone wants.  Some may just love getting "blasted", others like you, don't really like it.  With me it varies.  Sometimes I just sit in the water without any pumps running.
 Some like bubblers, others can't see the point.  Some insist on 104 degree water, some can't stand it that high and like it a few degrees cooler.  Others yet want to go above 104.
 None of it is wrong- for yourself.
