I did a lot of research into tubs, of course can't do it all but when your doing the research you think your covering all the bases. Anyway, we narrowed it down to 5 tubs in our area and picked the Euphoria because it had the best variety of seating arrangements for my wife who is 5 feet tall and my son who is 4'9" and myself who is 5'8". The jet placements seems to be in great positions, and I really like no pillows for head rests. Didn't think so at first but they have shaped the head rests just perfect for me. I also love the 2 cool off seats with jets. They are the best. More than enough power and we usually turn the jets down a litte. I really like the fact that you can individually turn down the jets. The whirlpool action from the jets is a favorite and the only tub that does this effect with results. The color lighting makes the water different colors and everyone goes whoooo when it does it's thing. I had a little scratch on the cover and if you looked right you could see it easily, the dealer ordered me a new one no problem. And when they installed the cover lifter they missed with the drill and scratched the dura lifter piece. They told me so I didn't find it and replaced it. I have another tiny little scratch in the dura lifter and they wanted to replace that piece too, but I said let me paint it and see what happens. After-all don't want to be too anal. But you can be and our dealer will make sure your taken care of. Great service and warranty. The ozonator is a little noisey cause of the air and water coming out under high pressure. They all do this so not a structural or operational concern, and when the jets are all on you can't hear it, but can feel it in that seat, so it seems like a little extra butt massage, but wish it was quieter. And even though I love the shell layout and strength, the colors suck. It has taken awhile to get used to the white one and I have convinced myself it looks like snow so it has become nice to me, but my first impression was they are ugly. Wish they had a nice pearl one or something, then my wife would have fallen in love at first and not after much convincing. But I understand Marquis philosophy of making a tub, and that is strength, reliability and longivity and there they have succeeded even with the shells. Just love this tub.
Date Purchased: August 2003
Price Paid: $7500

Pros:
Great jet placements, extremely well made, wonderful color light system, quiet, lots of variety in jets, very powerful jets, ability to switch out the jets, lots of variety of seat heights, warranty, Dura shell is very strong and the enclosure is very nice looking. Customer service is the best.
Cons:
Ozonator makes a slight clunking type noise as the air and water go through the jet, shell colors are plain, - they only have 3, white, blue, and green and look like cheap plastic, but we did come to like our white one, kinda reminds me of sitting in a snow field. Price is higher than most tubs, but I think you get what you paid for, just wish I didn't have to pay this much for one. |
