Thank you very much for your advice. We ended up buying a Marquis Spirit, which is the right size for us but has all the jets we need and the lounge configuration we wanted. This forum has been very helpful.

We are looking for a spa and have visited several showrooms, but we still need more information. It is all confusing for us. We were impressed with the Marquis line as well as the Maax. However, I have seen many negative remarks on this forum about the Maax. I like the fact that it has steel construction because we have rodents and termites in our area and felt that this would last longer. I would like to know what the specific negatives are about the Maax. They have the perfect configuration for us - a 4 or 5 person spa with a therapy lounge. And we have found a dealer who has been in business in our area for many years and he appears to be honest and knowledgable. We are not looking for a cheap line, as price is not the main factor. We intend to keep it for a very long time. Please, any specifics would be appreciated.
