>>>I focused on good, quality used tubs. Found one that was the personal tub of the owner of a local spa shop. I got a 2007 model Nordic with 1 years worth of chemicals and a 90 day warranty for $2500. You can't tell this tub from a new one!
+1 on this. I bought a used tub, two years old
for under $3000.
I also expect to sell it for SOMEThing when I leave the house in 10 years.
One thing is FOR SURE. Quality of life improvement is remembered LONG after cost is forgotten. It's high expense, relatively, but high return. Go in there min. 2x/week. Also a great place to discuss anything controversial with my wife....neither of us can get too flustered... !
