We bought an X8L from Bullfrog and love it...Have not had a single issue.  We also tried out Viking tubs when we were looking, and like most people say, Bullfrog is definitely in a higher class.  If I were you, I would go and wet test both tubs and I bet after doing that, you will EASILY be able to make a decision either way!

I have a Viking 3, review and pics in conversation below. It adds @$20 a month. It doesn't get heavy use so it stays clean @4 hours day.

I disagree.  Bullfrog's X series are really nice and built really well.  They just don't have jetpaks and the warranty is 3 years rather than 5.  They use the same molds, pumps, heaters, controls, acrylic, synthetic frame and abs base.  The jets they do use are actually pretty good, just not jetpaks.  I really like the triple spinner. 

In my opinion viking does not come close to Bullfrog, even their x series.  It's a hdpe plastic shell like a rotomold.  They don't have very many jets and the ones they use are generic with a lot of bullet jets.  I also don't like the fact that they advertise the best warranty in the industry but it's prorated to worthless after 2 years.

I have direct experience with both brands and Bullfrog blows away Viking.  Not even close.

Ghvf:
Bullfrog should blow Viking away. 7Gs more! Just realizing this site is about Dealers and if you don't spend 10 grand on a hot tub, its crap.

Lol that’s not true I sell plenty of 3700-5000 Nordic Tubs. For some that’s what they are looking for. 7k more for a x Series Bullfrog versus a Viking doesn’t sound right. Which Bullfrog were you pricing and which Viking were you pricing. I sell tubs ranging from $3500 up to close to 20k. There are buyers looking for different needs throughout that price range.
