Trying to decide between the Bullfrog A7 and the Hotspring Pulse

(1/4) > >>

Any one have any thoughts or advice on this?

ratchett:
Both are popular tubs.  Have you wet-tested them both?  Which felt more comfortable to you?

The Bullfrog's jetpack design requires the seats to be molded a bit different (wider and flat surface area for the jetpacks to fit into each seat).    Some people like how the seats feel in a Bullfrog, others don't.

If you are dead set on those models, go wet test them or something else from the A and Limelight series (you don't need to wet-test your specific model, any other tub from that product-tier would be a good test for jet pressure and seating style).   Also remember the dealer is a major part of the equation as they will be your point of contact for all warranty service (and usually the lifespan of the tub if the dealer does their job right).  Be sure to research them online and trust their technicians can do the job right if you ever need their services to fix an issue with your investment.

Thanks for the info. Unfortunately they are not doing wet tests due to the Covid crisis here in Boston. At this point I kind of need to wing it that is why I was trying to get people’s feedback.

I have not wet tested a hot spring but I did wet test bullfrog last week. I am a first time buyer but I have wet tested a caldera, a marquis, and a coast spa all in the last week. Personally we liked the bullfrog the least. I dont like that most of their models dont have therapy jets for their legs. They have feet ticklers but I would not consider them therapy jets. We really liked the Coast spa and Marquis and ultimately I think we will go with the coast spa but that is more due to features we are looking for.

Hope this helps.

ohh I forgot to mentio. To us it seem like the bullfrog was the loudest and with some of the jetpacks I had issues with the jetpacks make a weird humming noise when I laid back against them.
