just bought the caldera.
« on: January 16, 2005, 08:59:41 am »
well I wet  tested both the Coleman and caldera and although I really liked the coleman 461 model, it was a lot more money than the caldera martinique that I bought.

I really liked the lounger on the coleman but the jets were not as strong and the caldera, and it was a thousand dollars cheaper, plus it was a little smaller in size and would fit better on our deck.... and I had a coleman before and was never thrilled with the jets and had lots of problems with it, but I no they have greatly imporved the line.

I love my new hot tub and can't wait for it to arrive, does anyone else have the  caldera martinique? we got a good deal, 1/2 off the lift cover and half off the glo lights, had to have the neat lighting.

we will have to have a crane carry it over the roof to get it in the screened in porch, they told us that its a common thing, cuz I  live in the mounatins of NC and they do it all the time.. its going to be fun watching this, maybe I will get pictures for you all:) happy tubbing. we also went with chlorine for our sanitation system. was not happy with bromine.

Lisa,

Congratulations!

I had a crane delivery and it was an awesome sight!  You will want to take lots of pictures (I did)!

Good luck!

Congrats on the spa and good choice. Your post is a PRIME  example of poor salesmanship/marketing by your coleman dealer. The 461 "should" have been price competitive. You did the right thing (100%) by voting with your wallet. Make certain you let the coleman dealer know why they lost the sale (call them AFTER your new Caldera is in place). Enjoy...

I am a proud owner of the Martinique and I think you will be very satisfied with your tub.  My wife and I wet tested about five different spas and the Martinique came out the winner. You will especially enjoy your foot massage jets.  The spa glo is also a nice feature. Let us know when you get it and How much you like it . Good Luck and Happy tubbing !!
