We are new to the whole hot tub thing and have been looking everywhere from Hot Springs, Marquis, La Spa's, Costco to spa/hot tubs online. Being new and never owning a hot tub we aren't exactly sure what we should be looking for in quality. Have read many forums and have seen lots of good and not so good comments. We kinda like the look of one of the Easy Life Hot tubs, but aren't set on anything yet. I know that a wet test would be best, but any online spa's that isn't possible. Like most people money is one of the issues in buying a spa, but I am willing to find something that costs more if it is more energy efficient in the long run? Any thoughts would be valued. Thanks.

here is some helpful information. let me fill you in on a company that i went through. i have purchased 2 spas from a company called united spas. the best product i could have ever asked for. i have had absolutly no problems with this hot tub and i have had it for 3 in a half years. the other one i purchased for my daught and she has also not had and problems besides a couple new jets but who are we kidding jets are plastic we cant expect them to stay in great condition for ever. and that was also because she over used cemicals. they actually are the mfg. soo the price is cut in half or maybe even more than half of everyone else. they mostley just sell to dealers but they sell to the public too. the prices you will see on there web page are not that true amount they are 50% off of that. there web page is spasus.com they are terrific. they ship all over the us there sales line in CA is 1209-495-8228.good luck and let me know wut you think and what you decision was ok? p.s. they have local service everywere!
