This spa really reminds me of a caldera with all those bullet jets and that filtration system. Why not have some nice big jets that feel good and don't make you itch?
Your right...I take it back...It looks more like a Cal Spa! The ff845B to be exact.

Are those filter by-pass suction fittings I see in there? :)
Yes, the Limelight Hot Tubs are designed to only filter part of the water like every other brand available. Only HotSpring Spas filter 100% of the water with no-bypassing of the filtration system.
That is just one of the many reasons why HotSpring Spas are the World's #1 Selling Brand of Portable Spas and the industry leader for over 20 years.

Vanguard--beautiful pix!! I love the foot dome, corner seat and the COLORS!!!!! That is what I want!!! 8-) ::) :-*
How much do one of these loaded babies run??
Happy, Happy Day!!
Chrisi :D
Geez, someone comes out with a new spa and the competitors have to trash it based on pictures. I agree with Dan, I think you protest a bit too much. Most brands have pretty good looking spas. I happen to think some have some very ugly spas. One of which has a couple of dealers on this forum. My opinion there, but I'm not trashing them or calling them generic or anything else.
I don't even have a dog in this fight. I work for a company that makes commercial swimming pool products.
Does your buddy say that is with our without music system?
Talked with a buddy, he thinks they'll sell for around $8500 fully loaded.
The blue on the limelight series is sexy 8-)

and i have seen you without a shirt on there should be WAY more hair on that chest.
how many of those pics do you have anyways?!?!
Term, I am not talking about how the spa looks but whats in it! Jets. found in a 100 other spas Jacuzzi 300 and 400 series not being one, the filter found in a lot of others If you think the J-365 is a generic spa you don't know your spa's as well as you think you do.
I tried to give the limelight a complement but I guess it didn't take. Sorry
I think the spa does look nice, generic!
Vanguard,
Before I am critiqued for commenting about the types of jets used in the Limelight, you might want to look at some of your previous posts in regards to mini jets and qualities of brands. The Limelight could be a good spa, I dont know, I have only seen pictures, but one would have to try out those mini jets before dropping 8500 bucks on it.
You really need to get a sense of humor. You have caused more contention on this site than everyone else combined in the last few years I've been frequenting this place. Geez.
HEY! That's Artie Artesian (or Marquis Mark, or Sundance Kid, or HotSpring Harry, D-1 Me 2, or Jacuzzi Jim, or whatever his name is selling spaz!

Just an observation. If I am correct I thought this new line of spas was supposed to be lots of flash (nice, nothing wrong with that), lots of jets, at a mid price point. At 8500.00 of that is a accurate number than they are in the high middle to upper end for spas. Does this work for HS dealers or are they just taking sales from another tub in thier own line. They look good in pictures but if the warranty is as it was mentioned a little shorter than I would think they might be a bit of a tougher sell at that price point.
They seem to be sales we would not have had. The sizzle is selling them, not the price.
Does your buddy say that is with our without music system?
Here's a question: I thought the stereo was going to be factory installed. But from what my "source" said, they will install it themselves. He hadn't sold one yet, so he wasn't totally clear. Is the stereo strictly after-market?
I would think stores with limited floor space, will have to choose which one will be better to show. I think people put more value in the bling then how it feels which it defiantly has more bling then the tiger river.
The new HotSpot La Palma is available with the stereo factory-installed, but as of yet, not so on the Limelight
8-)
To the Hot Spring dealers: Does the Limelight signal the beginning of the end of Tiger River?
Okay. That's what I was thinking of. Thanks for the clarification. I thought they had a spa with a factory stereo option.
Same stereo and speakers/sub - I think it sounds best of all the sound systems offered by Watkins. I am going to order one to put in my boat, though I may have to use a different sub woofer - not sure yet on that point.
8-)
I hope not; Tiger River is a great product. I suppose Watkins will wait and see how Limelight sales go and then decide if they want to continue to offer 5 product lines. It would be nice if they could keep all 5.
Saw the limelight Pulse yesterday at a local dealer and it is the nicest looking of any spa we have seen so far. The Flair was also there and was wet . We did not jump in (yet). We think we may actually buy the Pulse (in blue) - but there are a couple of concerns 1) Jet's - they do look like pretty basic jets , but a few of the arrangements match the Flair so we will wet test that this week. 2) Price - being a new product we have no price points for comparison which is a bit worrisome - my local dealer wants $8295 for the spa (all accessories, setup, etc and a side table with towel rack thrown in) and another $1500 for the wireless stereo.
The dealer was knowledgeable on HS and Bullfrog but not much on Limelight. The pumps are actually larger than the HS Envoy for example (another unit we looked at) and I think a steel frame makes better sense than wood (but I am a true newbie to all of this). The dealer "thinks" the stereo will have the in spa transducers but does anyone know if it uses those or is it pop ups like the spa seems to have spots for. (please reply only if you know for sure).
Also - the price seems a little high for a lower priced line - so we are a little gun shy for actually comitting to this spa without getting some idea if we are grossly overpaying. We LOVED the look, layout, size and lighting of the Spa and since the flashy look is an important part of our decision (we admit it) its the leading choice so far.
We have looked at Downeast, Master, Vita, Hot Spings, Sundance, LimeLight, Bullfrog. A local "wholesaler" sells Pinnacle at very low prices - may look at that. There are also D1 and Artic dealers close by. But the glitz of the Limelight has kind of blinded us...LOL... Any additional info on pricing, the limelight music system, etc would be appreciated....
I am going to check out an artic today (and maybe the d1's as they are down the road from each other). . Liked the kewl action of the Master Spa curved therapy seat but Master gets a ton of knocks all over the internet and its a costly tub.
Perfect would be a tub with Limelight glitz, HS transducer stereo, Hot Springs cost of operation, Bull Frogs spa pack, etc...cant find a tub that has it all ....LOL dont mind spending reasonable money - 10 - 13K or so for one that did it all. The pulse at 9750 just might be high for a tub that does not excel in the jets department.
Merlin--
When we first started looking at tubs, we did see a Caldera Aspire wet that we were going to wet test. But the more we looked, the more jets/different placement we wanted and the more bling and shell options we wanted. We never did see the HS line--the dealer is about 45 minutes away--not too bad--near my old home town. But looking on line at them--we just weren't googly-eyed==no, we weren't too googly eyed over Jacuzzi at first, but loved the tub we sat in (has a great foot dome)--but compared to the Arctic, had alot more jets, great therapy, and lots of room as well, not quite the "bling" lights like we wanted, but I have said before==I don't care to sacrifice therapy for bling. Being a more educated wet tester now, I base my thoughts on that now. And, having a good, stable dealer is a [glow]definate [/glow] must, and our Arctic dealer is that type of dealer. I feel our Jacuzzi dealer is as well, and I am sure the Caldera dealer is too. (the salesman is very knowledgable and helpful and not pushy at all and they have great BBB reviews.)
Sorry I rambled on so long--I know you guys are passionate about the HS line. ;)

Chrisi,Water Boy, I appreciate how you express congrats to all the new tub owners even if they select something other than an Acrtic. In this case Arctic has won over the heart of Chrisi, I tried to persuade her into the Jacuzzi fold but I could not damper her love for the Arctic experience. Many hot water days ahead for all of us.
Glad to hear that your experience with your Arctic dealer has gone so well. You are going to love your Arctic Tundra. Great choice of spa!!!! :)
Yep we're "sexy" Term, ofcourse with enough "Sapphire" everyone looks sexy. :-*
