tnsportrac Posted January 30, 2006 Report Share Posted January 30, 2006 Have been shopping around the past month for a hot tub. The only "local" dealers have are calspa,hotsprings and artesian. im not looking for something extravagent. Just something to relax in, help some aching muscles and some family time. i am on a TIGHT budget. Needs to accomodate 4-5 people I havent made it to look at the artesians yet,just looked online and this is the place we bought our AG pool, but ive looked at the calspa and hotsprings. The 2 that the salesman is recommending is the calspa v-300 or the V-500. Are these good tubs? pros? cons? the prices he has gave me is around 4k with only a couple hundred diffrence between the 2. Is this a good price. its close to my budget, but i dont want to buy something that i wont get good use out of and wont last. how do u go about asking about a wet test? thanks rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A 24 hr. circulating pump has its benifits and draw back. 100percent filtration on hotspring wich has even more benifits. That is a great price for the V500. Ask the dealer if the warranties are non-prorated??? that is important. Also ask them how long they have been in business and check the BBB. You cant go wrong if it is fully backed up. I dont personally like the pressure treated wood and full foam but if 4000 is in your budget than go for it. It is a really nice tub for that price. I wish you the best of luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
