Wow...we're only one step away for declaring a winner based upon the Godwins rule.

Have we crossed over the terms and conditions for use yet?
If you can't sell it on eBay, it may not even qualify as landfill.

Lets see (I will probable get in trouble again but that is fine)  A person who can't formulate his own opinions into words, you have to throw-out a pre-designed Card for you to use that fits the setting you need:  "Godwin's Law Card". Childish

If you don't like a post from some one or you think it is like beating a dead horse.....Don't comment on it and it will fade into Internet space.

I am interested in how it does through cold weather.  It has a similar style shell insulation to Arctic and is not full foam, which some people like, some don't.  Does allow it to recycle motor heat, which is good, but I don't see a lot of thickness to the insulation.

Enjoy it.  It seems to have lots of cool bells and whistles.

That makes sense.  Looks like a lot of tub for the money.  Good luck with it.

Now your making me think of the evolution spas at Costco. I saw one at Costco and for $5,000 it looks like a pretty good tub. I'd say it would be better spent money buying a new one from Costco with their return policy than buying a 5 to 10 year old used premium hot tub from a dealer in that price range.

Since I'm away from my house in a rental for another year for a work transfer, maybe I'll go buy one of these and be able to give another unbiased feedback. I'm sure it won't measure up to the Jacuzzi J-400 series or Sundance 880 series, but based upon the thread last night on the new hot tub owner that bought a brand spanking new Jacuzzi J-200 series for probably near or slightly over $5,000 and then had multiple leaks and power issues within the first week, basically it was dead on delivery from my viewpoint and his lack of response from his dealer (he hasn't provided any updates today, so this is a guess), I'm sure he wished he could just drag his hot tub back to the local Costco store or call the 800 number for a replacement.

And the best part, no hassle of dealing with dealers or salesman negotiating over the "fair market price" vs MSRP vs their sale price of a relatively inexpensive hot tub.
