Disappointed with Marquis

<< < (2/2)

MarKee:
You tried it out with cold water in it?  Or did you just stick your hand in the water?  I've soaked in the MicroSilk spa and I think it feels great, I would imagine it wouldn't feel nearly as good if the water was cold.  If you have a high level of calcium in the water in your area, that could make the water feel like it was drying your skin out.

If you don't care for the MicroSilk feature, have you asked about ordering a Signature Spirit without MicroSilk and without the sound system?

Overall husband was upset that they couldn't work with us to try for a wet tests, so we'll probably stay away from getting a Marquis. At least the Sundance dealer had no problem letting us try a wet test on the Dover on a Saturday...
All the Hot tub places are over an Hour away and we really need a dealer that will work with us, this is all so frustrating. Plus, the price on The Marquis Spirit was no budge on $9,400 and I later found out, because this one had Blue tooth on it and we don't want bluetooth after that well they didn't want to talk so we left, great price for blue tooth, not willing to talk to you if you don't.
Just really disappointed and frustrated...and microsilk is over rated....Needed the vent..

Looks like a Capri from Sundance might be our winner, do you have a moisturizer that can be added into the water?

You hit a couple key points. You want to feel a certain comfort level with whatever dealer you choose, especially when its not someone around the corner as is your case. In a way you're interviewing both the dealer and their product  so take your time and just keep looking.

As far as adding any kind of moisturizer to the water just be careful because anything you're adding into the water you're also going to be filtering out so if they recommend anything ask if its in their wet test spas and if not ask them to add some so you can see what its like.

Chartreux:
To MarKee, only had my hand in the tub, as it was cold, they did warm it up, but again only was able to feel it with my hand.
The whirlpool effect looks like it would be nice...The bottom paneling could use more venting holes for good air circulation especially here in the Southern States...
Just saying because when they turned the heat on the bottom panels got hot as I did sit on the steps to rest.

No, we did not get in a cold wet tub, no no...that's not happening...

MarKee:
Where do you live at?  Even in 100+ degree weather the spa won't overheat, that is the reason for the vents (some spas have no ventilation).  Perhaps you should call and ask for the manager or owner of the store to see if they can arrange a wet test on the weekend, sorry you had a bad experience.

Chartreux:
South of Houston...No Spa/Hot tub dealers near me at all, The delivery fee's would probably be at least $500. This week I just need to rest up, these drives leave me in so much pain just not worth it especially with the next few weekend's construction. Construction on the weekends on beltway8 won't allow for traveling and it'll probably be under construction until December.
