jennG Posted August 26, 2006 Report Share Posted August 26, 2006 Help? There is a huge hole being dug in my backyard for the spa we haven't bought yet. Any opinions on these two models?? They are both $10,400. We thought the Marquis was a little crowded in the footwell, but the extras were great (remote, wall remote, lights, waterfall). Caldera has nice options too. Both solid construction. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deestruhart Posted August 26, 2006 Report Share Posted August 26, 2006 [Love the Caldera Aspire. very nice looking tub, great exterior lighting as well as interior, also has a attractive water fall.which also has lighting, most importantly it is a well made tub with a good warranty.waterproof stereos and speakers with surround. and dual controls. It also has a good Ozone system and is a energy pro Hot Tub. Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The hole is 10' x 10' , 2' deep. There will be 6" of screening, then patio stones. Recessed 16" to match up with level of deck. (400 sq. feet, red cedar) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a question are you sure you are looking at an Epic is has a larger foot well than a Grandee as an example and is the largest footwell of any spa of comparable size that I know.

Yes it was an Epic for sure. Only seemed crowded on the two middle seats, not the corners. Thanks again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless you are going to have 6 in the spa often , I would say in the real world that would rarely ever be an issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
