This is my 2nd post somehow the 1st one is gone, but let me ask again has anyone heard anything of Islander spas?? They are located in Fontana, CA. We have a dealer here and they were one of the first ones to open and are highly recommended.

Where is here....?

I'm from North Dakota

A dealer here in Illinois sells Islander as well as Dimension 1 spas. I sat in one without water, and liked that the seats had different heights. It had a waterfall, and the "lounger" could be sat at either end, one side lower than the other. That's all I know. :-/

Manufacturer hasn't been around very long or they are the old Cal X fun Spas, Cal X spas, fun Spas, renamed.
Cheaper manufacturer that cuts lots of corners.
I wouldn't expect much support from the manufacturer which will hurt your dealer to provide the service that you will need.
I wouldn't do it.
Sorry :( :( :(

There is always another coner to turn and another spa to consider. Gather the information, get the cards face up on the table, eliminate down 3 and water test. Do not ask us to point you to your decision.

There's an Islander dealer in my area. I believe the spas are made by Artesian. They are actually pretty nice.
-
You are thinking of the Islander series from Artisian..... Islander spas is a different company.....

Here is some info on Islander :D

Leaks can be very discouraging, especially with a new spa. We want customers to be happy and tell all their friends and relatives what a great spa they own. ETL Certified, and carries one of the best straight forward warranties in the industry. Please call, we will prove to you that there isn't a better spa made at any price. We are the leader in quality, customer service, and savings. Your customers won't just be happy, they will be excited their new spa is an Islander Spa.

Don't believe sales blips - EVERY manufacturer has the best of whatever so ... look around.

ndfar, is this an inquiry, a pitch, or an advertisement ???
Testing each spa for 12 hours minimum is pretty good, but how many can you test at a time. Is this a new start up company? It seems to indicate a lack of confidence to require extensive testing?

Your original post was looking for info on Islander, now you are posting their marketing materials. You wouldn't happen to be an associated with that new dealer in ND, would you?
-
I've never seen a spa with a "between the legs jet" on a lounger before. I'll leave someone else to make the appropriate, or possibly inappropriate comment on that. ;D

Thanks for the heads up. Think I better keep moving, see ya!

Sorry to get you all suspicious, ??? but no I am not associated to the dealer and yes I am with the Air Guard in Fargo ND. I also wondering about the jet between the legs but I was looking at a DX-300. The reason I posted their marketing materials is the negitive responce I recieved on the Islander spa. I hope to clear the air here and not make enemies. Oh by the way I guess I'll leave the minute man in the ground!!! ; ;)

I'm from North Dakota
How about that, I'm from N.D. too! Are you getting all this snow today? we've been in a snow storm watch since yesterday and so far have about 6" on the ground. It's wet and sloppy and will be gone by this time tomarrow.
Sorry can't help you with Islander spas, this is the first I've heard of them.
I don't know for sure if you're in Minot or Grandforks but I sell Coleman and Jacuzzi for a company that has locations in both Mandan and Dickinson( shameless plug) :-[
Both Coleman and Jacuzzi offer a basic level of spas within their product line that have good therapy, solid warranty and not a lot of bells and whistles. These spas are very affordable and are the 100 series in the Coleman line and the 200 series in the Jacuzzi line.
I just set up the Jacuzzi 230 in my store today which is new to the Jacuzzi line. My co-worker and I will be wet testing it tomarrow night and I'll give my opinion in a wet test post.
Sorry for hijacking your post, but since we're from the same state I figured I'd let you know I'm here! ::)
Oh and make sure you wet test any spa you're considering.
Spahappy :D

Blonde moment, I guess I should have been able to tell where you were from by your sign in name.
