Very nice!

Looks very comfortable.  And doesn't look too "dressed down".

I like the jet arrangement in the 2 person seat.  Better not let the future Mrs. N see that.  I already have my eye on our next spa - might be tougher to convince her!

Looks amazingly like the old Tiger River Siberian.

Hooray for the Siberian Jr!

We've been putting the reintroduction of the Siberian on our dealer surveys for the past three years.  I've got one of these on order for the showroom.

We have one on order too -

no circ pump. This is a Hot Spot Spa, and it it nice and roomy and deep. I do like the layout.

Available with or without a factory stereo to boot!  :D
If you can smile when things go wrong, you have someone in mind to blame.

It IS as bad as you think and they ARE out to get you.

Maybe it'll sell better as a Hot Spot.  I know the reason Watkins discontinued it in the first place was lack of sales.  It was at the bottom of the heap when they dropped it.  

Of course, once Watkins dropped it, the dealers all said they loved it and sold a lot of it.  But the numbers didn't lie.  

It could do better as a spa priced in this range with the stereo option.  It's good that Watkins is starting to see the benefit of the choice of factory installed or no stereo option.

I know we were in the minority compared to other dealers, but the Siberian used to be one of our best sellers.  I'm excited to have the new version, but I wish they just would have re-released it as it was before.

Looks cool....too bad Hot Springs has to take up a valuable corner seat with their filter compartment.  One of the main reasons we went with Jacuzzi.  My tall family of 4 would be fighting over who got corner seats!
