Does anyone know anything about Superior Spas?
-
there is a retailer by that name and a manufacturer(assembler). The manufacturer had a local rep/dealer in our area for two years then vanished. People would come into the store and say, where did Superior Bill go? He vanished along with his $3,995. 5person, still in wrapper, full warranty, ozone, classified-ad spas. DAAAAHHHH!!!!!

I've never heard of them. If you are looking for a spa I would stay with some of the more reputable brands
Caldera, Hot Springs, Sundance, Jacuzzi

i don't think i've ever seen a footwell with so many jets

There are many many more "reputable brands" than just those. Dimension One, Arctic, L.A., Artesian, Marquis, & Coleman to name a few more.
To answer your original question Aquatub, I believe they are made in Oklahoma. A friend of mine saw their booth at the state fair last summer and said that they are a basic brand of spa with alot of bells and whistles. Whether they make a good quality tub, I do not know. It doesnt have to be made by a Fortune 500 company to be a good quality product.

You're right it does look like the SuperiorSpa has tons of foot jets....
I love my foot jets and wish mine had that many.

Problem with all of those foot jets is that you can only get your two feet on maybe four of them. The flow of water is divided by all those jets which = lame foot massage. Too many are fooled by looks and don't think like. Eyes are your worst enemy when buying a hot tub.
Domed foot therapy doesn't provide the 1 owner(you know the one who uses the tub 98% of the time) the luxury of getting what they really deserve...an unbelievable foot massage.

Superior set up on the side of the road in our town about 2 years ago. My brother stopped by to check them out.
Sup: "We're with the factory. That's a $10,000 spa, but we'll sell it direct for $8000 because we cut out the middle man. How that sound?"
Bro: "How many jets are in there?"
Sup: "How many you want? We can put in up to a hunnert. Put you in a waterfall, too."
Bro: "Where are ya'll out of?"
Sup: "We's from Shreveport, but the factory's in Oklahoma."
Bro: "Well, if the factory's in Oklahoma and ya'll are in Shreveport, doesn't that make ya'll the middle man?"
Sup: "No, we's with the factory."
This fella was the inspiration for Noah Middleman, Factory Rep:

You can buy the same type spa at any fair, flea market, internet site, or storage rental facility across the country.

Mine does a pretty good job. That is because I can turn off the foot jets that I am not using. In fact that tends to make the foot jets too strong. Although truth be told I usually just stick my feet in the central volcano jet and get a complete foot and ankle massage all at once. Only real down side is that the foot jets and volcano jet in the dome are on the same pump and unlike the individual foot jets the volcano can't be turned on and off. So on full blast for the foot jets the volcano tends to make the water surface a little wild and woolly.
But I wouldn't mind having a foot dome that looked kind of like that although I might miss the volcano jet. perhaps the best option would be to add a volcano to that dome that had an independent control from the foot jets.

All 3 main seats have the exact same configuration. I guess you really liked that config hehe. Ever think that maybe your missing out on other types of massage? :p
