Welcome to our forum.
I compared every single feature and really, Coast won every chance they could get. I sure went through the horsepower game, and whether or not Coast says they are 7HP pumps, and naysayers can say what they want about fake HP, there is no spa made that pumps out the volume these puppies do!!
After a lot of the negative reads on some of the brands on this and other forums, I hope we have chosen a tub that will give us years of enjoyment. I am doing my best to read up on chemical, ph and owner responsibilities to prep myself for our maintenance duties ahead. We really have wanted a tub for years and think it will be a family centerpiece and not something "we used to use all the time".Cheers!
Can you explain the Chas law dump?
I was not aware of the slate steps ftwiebe..we went with the terra cotta slate (which honestly is the first thing we did not like about the coast spas with the slate siding).I'm guessing that is an official Coast part? If you don't mind me asking, can you provide measurements on them (length, heighth and width)? Also, did you get the coast guard bottom?Nice honest comments wmccall, I can see the tendancy already to over-analyze the water in the beginning.
