Bullfrog can you suggest any spas in the 8 to 10k range with a 5yr warranty

There are tons of them. Marquis, D1, HS, Caldera, Sundance, Bullfrog, Arctic to name a few.

Looking for a 90 inch plus tub couldn't find any caldera,hot spring marquis or bullfrog in that size wit h the 5 yr warranty. Best deal in that size seemed to be the v94 at 7995. All the 5 yr warranty stuff seemed to be well over 10k . Grandee was 12k caldera was 12k bull frog 8 dea lee wanted 15k. No Sundance or d1 here and Lester guy can't be trusted. If you have any model suggestions please let me know. I greatly appreciate the advise.

$7995 is really low on the V94L, that's a really good deal.  We sell them for $9995 with no options.  The V94L has been one of the best sellers this year, I like being able to take all of the power and put it in to one seat, or have all jets running at the same time if you have a lot of people using it.  Some of the pulsating jets in the Marquis Vector21 series feel incredible, I also like the center geyser jet, very impressive if you see it turned all the way on.


Really, really low price. I'm also at 9995 with upgraded lighting. I just sold a 94with lights,microsilk and spa frog for 13,500 on Saturday. You are getting a steal at that price


surprised to see only a 3 year component warranty on a spa selling for 10K+

I do wish it was 5. Would be easier to sell but it is the same equipment on the signature series that is 5. I sell against hydropool and Lazy Boy a lot. A lot of there tubs are even more expensive and have a 3 year also. Warranty is built into price and not necessarily a sign of future problems or pre mature breakdowns

Did you price a caldera Salina or Makena?

Yes priced makena was nice and was same price as the 94 which I thought the 94 was a better tub.

I asked because you asked about 5 year warranty stuff. Makena has a 5 year warranty as well?  That's a cheap price for that tub too. Where do you live?

Marquis (and most modern quality brands) are very reliable these days and the chances of something major happening between year 3 and year 5 would be pretty slim.  The most expensive part on the hot tub is typically $400-500 max on a Marquis, and most parts are far less than that.  If you like the price and the hot tub, I wouldn't get caught up on 2 years of warranty.  Most of the 5 year warranty spas have that warranty built in to the price, so think of it as a discount for taking a small risk that something would go wrong between year 3 and 5.  Even if something did break, you're still going to be saving a lot of money.

Hottubguy I live in Albany N.Y. I may have been confused on model because caldera I looked at at that price didn't have 5 yr warranty.
