Welcome to our forum.
We were quoted $9600 for the Piper Glen and that includes, hydralic lift, cover, and steps (not including tax, stereo or LED lights). The Sundance Optima we were quoted a little over 11K but he said that they were having a sale in a couple of weeks and that we could get them down on the price (not sure how much).
You get what you pay for. $11,000 is a little high for an Optima. Negotiate. Go with the Sundance. Bring on the comments about how I'm biased. I am. There are other that I will give props too(when deserved).Artesian is a O.K. built tub. Their goal sems to be to copy Sundance(and others) shells with generic parts and low-ball the price.
Taupe cabinet, with oyster opal(desert horizon) shell.
Yup, that's my tub. It's a gold series Opal 2005. I was told it's the taupe cabinet, and I'm pretty sure it is.
