Welcome to our forum.
Look at Master first. Make sure to take off the equipment panel and look inside. Then go look at your other choices. Take the equipment panel off of those also.IMO you have about three different classes of tubs your looking at with Jacuzzi, HS, Marquis, Sundance, Caldera at the high end of the quality scale. Then you have some upper middle of the road quality wise choices in Artesian, Hot Spot, Bullfrog. And some lower middle of the road choices like Master, Dynasty, Calspa, Maxx, Coleman. You should get a wide band of pricing.

I would rank Bullfrog with or above any of the others that you have listed. They are by and far my favorite hot tub that I have ever worked with. Hot Spring spas get quite a bit of fluff around here, but I would choose Bullfrog first without hesitation. Down to the most minute details, Bullfrog does it right. Additionally, they have made some great design changes for 2013 that I am very excited about.For the record, I am currently a Bullfrog dealer (among other brands) and have sold Hot Spring in the past.
It didn't take long
I just find it amusing when some one has the nerve to say anything about Hot Springs that is not HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY or say another tub is better, it doesn't take long for "someone" to make sure they respond. I hope it never stops because it makes this forum fun. If it's a boring day all I have to say is anything about Hot Springs and we get to have a good time on here. I'm glad there are so many hot tub manufacturers and every one has an opinion on each one. Remember this is my "IMO" so don't beat me up or I will have to let the attack dogs out
