Hello Camille Im a Sundance retailer in ohio. Sundance makes a great tub. Those prices arent to out of line on that spa. 2008 model I retailed it cash price for $7000. See if they will throw in a ozinator and try to negotiate a better price. In any event, if you liked the way it feels then buy it. Im sure you'll love it and again its a great spa. good luck Thank you! I was going to ask if they can throw in the ozinator. I have some time so I will see how things go. I am not in a hurry as this project has grown exponentially: new patio, seating wall, electrical, shower... Originally I was only thinking, "hot tub- yay!" and now we have to re-design the whole backyard. Another reason we can't spend much more than 7K on the hot tub.

Thank you for your suggestions. I do realize that I am taking a risk when purchasing used and prefer to buy new- which is what I will probably resolve to do. I just don't know enough about spas to feel comfortable checking components, etc. So I would also like to know what people might think of the Sundance Hamilton. I wet tested and really like the lounger and the room. Any opinion? Thanks

I sell both of them. Both Filters work great. Each of them have there own stories about why theirs is better. You cant make a bad decision with a sundance or hotsprings. See what one your more comfortable in and buy that one. Make sure you have a reputable dealer to support you. good luck Thank you.

I have wet tested the HS Vanguard and the Sundance Hamilton (only two dealers in my area) and, for the price and the comfort, I prefer the Hamilton. However, I just found a 2006 Sundance Optima on Craigslist. Listed below are the prices of each: HS Vanguard (floor model basic)- 7850 Sundance Hamilton (floor model basic- no ozonator)- 7200. I believe I will be able to get the price down and/or have them install an ozonator. They are asking 7850 for the Hamilton new and I still believe there might be room for negotiation. Craiglslist Sundance Optima- 3999 but would still negotiate price. I actually just found the listing so I don't know what other options are included. It does appear to have the steps and cover but not sure about the cover lifter or ozonator (which I would prefer) and the sunscents air injector (which I also liked). If it would not be too much trouble to offer any suggestions.... Thank you.

I have a questions regarding the filtration systems in both the Sundance and the Hot Springs hot tubs. Does anyone know if one is superior to the other? I am leaning toward the Sundance Chelsea but I have a friend that recommends the Hot Springs because of the filtration system. I really don't know how to determine the difference. I know I would install the ozonator and that the Chelsea has one, large, horizontal filter but not quite sure how that differs from Hot Springs. Has the technology improved in recent years that most filtration systems in the top of-the-line hot tubs work efficiently and well? Any advice would be very appreciated. Thank you.
