  1. Same dimensions as my wife and I! But I found the Jacuzzi models (some I think were 38" high) too deep for my own comfort and my wife floated like an inner tube. We ended up with a 35" model and the positions of its particular seating works well for each of us. (I tend to end up in the deeper therapy seat and she in the higher adirondack therapy chair.) It's the old "wet test" "wet test" "wet test" and if you are married | partnered, you better "do it together", yes? Hey! Colorado too I see My wife is currently pregnant so we might have to wait a bit with the testing then.
  2. The people who used to make the Coleman brand now make them under the name Maxx and you'll hear mostly good things about them on this site. If its the company based in Florida who bought the rights to the name Coleman then that's a Living Waters product and I'd avoid it like a 3 legged chair. There are a lot of good products out there. I like Caldera, D1, Hot Spring, Jacuzzi, Marquis and Sundance. Others have good things to say about Arctic, Artesian, Beachcomber, Bullfrog ... Go to the websites of each manufacturer and they should have a dealer locator where all you have to do is enter your zip code and they'll show you where their nearest dealer is. That ould be my first step. But if it's a dealer that supports the product here then I should be covered for any problems right? I bought the product from him, he is local and is responsible if anything breaks within warranty. Although I think I can fix most of the stuff that could break myself. Don't think it's rocket science with my background.
  3. The larger length and width obviously allow for more people/room but the biggest difference between those two spas as far as comfort for a tall person is the fact that one spa has a height of only 33" while the other is 38", that is a huge difference. Someone who is 6’3” certainly needs a spa taller than 33” IMO. True, I am so glad I went with the larger one. I am only 5'9" but it felt small to me. Think I might just have to stick around the big tubs then. Does anyone know how the coleman spa's are? We found a dealer here in Colorado.
  4. I liked the lounger at first but then heard that people tend to float up in it. 1 lounger and 4 seats with only 250 glalons does sound small. I would go up to the larger size. Dimensions of the smaller were 62x80x33. The one I got is 8sx82x38. The smaller one did seem a lot smaller. I think what Spatech could be right. Maybe the actual USG could be very off. Some spa's I saw were around 84x84x36 and between 235 and 350 gallons. I would say the right way would be to weigh the tub full and empty and then divide by 8.34(I could be off here, as I am dutch and used to the easy metric system)
  5. Now that's a quick reply! Was the 250usg really a lot smaller? The 1 lounger and 4 seats was what I was looking at and when I read 250USG it just sounded tiny. Kind of lost now
  6. We are looking around for a hot tub and I am kind of lost. Before dry/wet testing out every hot tub I started reading online and some tubs are for 5 or 6 people but only hold around 250 Gallons and then another one holds 350-400 Gallons. I am 6'3 and my wife is 5'6 so I think she will be fine but I would like to be comfortable too. Also, what is preferred? All seats or maybe a lounger? Hope someone can point me in the right direction
