I truly wish somebody would buy a hot tub from Home Depot and remain an active participant here.  I'd love to hear more about their experiences.  Unfortunately, I think everybody here is pretty much bought theirs from a local/reputable dealer.  

I'd compare my tub to a Ford or Chevy.   It's made by Artesian, but it's one of their lower end Island line.  It makes hot water and bubbles.  We love it.  Would it be nice to have 3 pumps and twice as many jets?  Sure.  (i just didn't want to pay for the upgrade).

When we were shopping, we did go into Home Depot to see what options were available. A guy at a desk handed us a brochure, pointed us toward a binder that was sitting on a table nearby, and went back to whatever he was doing before we asked. When we finished reading the (very confusing) literature, we went back to ask a question. He didn't know the answer and gave us an 800 number to call.

That was enough for me. No sale.

Part of the value added by the spa dealers is not having to do the above.
