ronc Posted September 24, 2007 Report Share Posted September 24, 2007 I have been agonizing for 6 weeks now over which small spa to bu. I was leaning toward a 2 person triangle spa for my 2nd floor deck (probably the Cal Spa HS901) but today I decided to install on my stone patio downstairs. I still dont have a lot of room but found what I think is a killer deal on a Hot Springs Sorrento. First - any opinions on Hot Springs? Then how about $4095 for this tub - seems like a good deal - what do you think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I paid $4100 for everything including, setup, delivery, cover lifter, chemicals, and sales tax. Cant give you any monthly cost info but from what I have read and been told its seems to be insualted well and is backed by a well known spa manufacturer.

Sounds like the same deal (cover lifter and all). I am dealing with California Home Saps in Long Beach (Signal Hill), CA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chas Posted September 27, 2007 Report Share Posted September 27, 2007 Good, simple spa. Not as well insulated as a 'big brother' HotSpring, and it isn't going to have the small circ pump. Or color-changing light. Or ozone, or the same warranty. The operating cost will only be very slightly higher if at all, and you will enjoy good deep soaks - the thing is only 6'6" square, but is 36" deep. Single jet pump, good power though not a wide variety of jet types. Price is in line with what I offer them for up a bit north of you.

04darkshadowgt Posted September 27, 2007 Report Share Posted September 27, 2007 What is the difference between the Hotspot Sorrento and Caldera Cumberland. They look identical down to jets, cabinet, shell, etc. There is a Caldera dealer a couple hours away I went to and the Cumberaland was $1500 more and it looked identical.

ronc Posted September 27, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 27, 2007 Thanks for the imfo. do you think it would be possible to relocate the equipment to a different location within the cabinet? I have plans for a more permanent step at the angled corner and would prefer to have the access panel on the back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chas Posted September 27, 2007 Report Share Posted September 27, 2007 The two spas are the same. As to moving the equipment, I'm sure it is possible, but you would have to remove the full foam insulation on that side, and then you would have one side not insulated at all - that is - the side where the equipment had been.

gmoeller Posted June 2, 2008 Report Share Posted June 2, 2008 Was 4100.00 the "out the door" price? what did it include? Cover? corner step? Tax? Thanks Never mind - I re read the thread. Do you think I could still get this price? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
