 :D ;DCheck out the name of the Forum! That is what everyone wants to know! There is no BEST it is all opinion. The MOST important thing is to see what is best for YOU. The key is to WET TEST!!!!!! That means, yes, you need to put on a suit and get into each spa you look at in the showroom, WITH WATER. The wet test will determine everything!

Now, that being said, there are a few "top" brands. They are (in no particular order): Hot Springs, Caldera, Sundance, Jacuzzi, D-1, Marquis, Arctic, and there are a few I'm sure I'm leaving out. Others that also have a good reputation, but maybe not quite as high are Bullfrog, Coleman, Cal-spa, Artesian and others I'm sure I forgot.

Just don't forget, research, ask questions on this Forum, that is why it is here, and most importantly.....WET TEST!!!!! Also, the dealer you purchase from is almost as important as the type of spa. Look for longevity, reputation, how long they have carried the brand, and service.

It may not be bad if you dont mind spending quite a bit of money for travel charges for warranty issues.  Remember one thing what others may think is great may not apply to you. Wet test the options you have in your area, do some research on the dealers themselves and if you cant find something great, then I would suggest looking outside your area.

I just googled "hot tub dealers las vegas nv" and the 1st 5 dealers were artesian, LA spas, Sundance (at Paddock pools). Keep looking. Go to each manufacturers site and plug in your zip. You will probably find others you had no idea were there.

The internet is dated. Many of the ones that come up are already out of business. Sundance and Hot Springs are still in business however.

Thanks,

Those 2 dealers would be a good start.... they are among the best in the industry.

There many very good choices with none truly being better than the others, though you might find one that is better for you. I am a Marquis dealer in So Cal as it was mentioned by another in this thread if you want a Marquis which I think you will find most agree that it is "one" of the better choices I have some really great deals going on 07's we have in stock. I do know there is also a new Jacuzzi dealer in Vegas. Let me know if I can be of help to you with a Marquis.

My wife and I just had lunch with Rene` of "Spas by Rene` " at the dealer meeting recently. She has been in the biz for a long time, has won some awards from HotSpring and industry-wide.

I would think that would be a great place to start.

Here's a list of some of the better spa makers out there when it comes to quality and service from the manufacturer. If you go to these sites you can enter your zip code to see if they have a dealer near you.
