I just bought a Down East Cape Cod Tub. I did not purchase the cover lifter and now I need to decide which lifter or set up would be best for us.

We built a deck to set the tub on exactly the size of the tub. Is there a coer lifter that will store the cover below the level of the tub? I did not purchase the lifter the dealer had because it would block our view. We live in a great place and I hate to block the view of the deer, bluffs, etc when soaking in the tub.

Thanks,
Linda

Does anyone have any ideas? Still looking for the right cover lifter!

an Easy-Lifter is a great choice.

What about a cover caddy? Does anyone have one? Do you have to fold the arms in when not in use or do they stay out?

I want something that I do not have to fold in and out to get it to work. I cannot not get to the side the cover will be stored on. I can get to it but I would have to walk off the porch and down steps to open the arms everytime.

how about an EasySlider. http://www.scarritt.com/aandbstorage.htm

I am not sure if that one will work. The arms look like they fold in too. I don't want to have to go off the deck to open or close the arms. Also, what if a strong wind came while I was in the tub would it not blow it off of the arms? THen I would be scrambling to pick up the cover.

Thanks for the idea!
