We bought the Bahia because of price, size, and the foot jets. As it turns out, we don't like the large mound in the middle of the floor that the foot jets are mounted in, as we feel it's a trip hazzard. Overall, this has been a great tub. We installed it outside, and Ohio winters are cold. We only saw a difference in our electric bill of about $10 per month.

Price Paid: $5000
Recommend: Yes |
Pros:
Price, jets (36 of various configurations), foot jets, easy to maintain
Cons:
Had to replace the control panel and pillows in the second year (out of warranty) |

My wife, my son and myself wet tested this tub and found all seating arraingements in this tub to be very comfortable for the three of us, and considering that my wife is a shortie at 5ft tall and my son being 5'10" and me at 5'9" that's saying quite a bit. Usually, either she doesn't fit and we do or the opposite. My wife usually has a difficult time trying not to get blown out of the seats and since this model has the mound in the footwell with jets... she's able to rest her feet on it to keep her in the seat and not to mention the great foot massage these jets put out. We liked this tub as much as the Optima (which we wet tested as well) but for 2 grand less - you can't go wrong.

After narrowing down my choices between the Sundance Altimar and Sweetwater Bahia (same dealer, wet tested between the two on 3 different occasions) I went with the Bahia due to the more versatile seating and the arrangement of the foot jets. Not as powerful as the Altimar, but I found that to be a bit TOO powerful. Price included optional led lighting, cover lifter, ozonator, GFCI box, delivery, steps and start-up chemicals
Date Purchased: 1/15/04
Price Paid: $7180
Recommend: Yes |
Pros:
versatal jet arrangements plenty of power lots of room for 6 users with not a bad seat in the spa fantastic foot/calve massage
Cons:
hasn't been delivered yet (I gotta wait 2 more weeks) no fault of the dealer, i'm just impatient :D |
