    I loved my D1 Amore Bay and recommended it others until today. Yes it was expensive, but I figured it was a 5 year warranty, and no problem with my previous D1, I was safe. Today it was told I have over $1700 in repairs it needs and it appeared to have calcium build up, so it would not be covered by the warranty. They said I probably did not have the chemicals adjusted correctly. I have followed the recommended maintenance to the letter. Water changes every 6 months since I use the Vision cartridges, test and adjust chemicals weekly, add 3-4 capfuls of oxidizing shock weekly, cleaned filters weekly, I have paid to change the Ultrapure system on schedule, and fill with tap water not soft water. Now a light seal failed, which they said was common and that was covered under warranty. But, they said I need to replace the circulation pump, heater, and right side pump that would not be covered under the warranty. 2nd D1, never again!!!!!

    I live in upstate New York. Most years we run our spa the entire year. The Dimension One Dream was purchased in 2005. In 2025, we had our first problem. The circulation pump on the ozonator failed. This pump with the ozonator was an add-on by the dealer at the time of purchase. The replacement was easy and took about 30 minutes to replace. I’d say that that’s pretty good for twenty years. The spa looks and functions like new.

      I ha a D1 Chairman 2 spa for 15 years and it was great. I replaced it with a D1 Nautilus 6 years ago. I really enjoyed the spa however soon after the 5 year warranty expired it started to leak. The repair guy recommended by my dealer told me that he could try to fix it but that would cost over $1k and have a 50% chance of success and a 50% chance of ruining the hot tub. Now the leak is so bad it has become unusable. A $12k hot tub should last longer than 5 years. My dealer told me they no longer sell D1 due widespread leak issues. It is really sad because they used to make good hot tubs.

      Don't count on great service. Our tub has leaked since day one. It took them 3 tries to get the NEW tub to not leak and I had to pay for a service call. We live an hour away from the dealer. It takes them 3 weeks from when they are called to get to our location.

      I purchased a Dimension One hot tub with a lifetime Ultra Life shell warranty. It has had a slow leak for many years. It was so slow that I thought it may be dripping from the cover, although it was always at only one end of the hot tub. Several years ago the leak started in get worse. I have had four hot tub repairmen try to fix the leak. Two of the repairmen were from D-1 authorized dealers. At least two of the repairmen told me that the wall in that area of the tub was the thinnest they had ever seen and that there may be micro cracks in the wall. The wall in that area is as thin as a dime. They did find a crack in the hole where the light housing goes. None were able to fix the leak.

      Although the D-1 company says the leak is fixable they will not make the D-1 retail dealers who I paid to fix the leak come back out and work on the tub until it is no longer leaking. The company won't replace the liner because says it is too old but it has a lifetime warranty. I asked them what the specification is for the tub wall thickness in that area should be but they will not answer the question. I have spent over $2500.00 in repairs and the leak is not fixed. D-1 should replace the liner the under warranty at no cost to me. I have paid enough and have not had use of the tub for three years. The tub looks almost like new. It has been indoors from the day I bought it.

      I bought the D1 Arena spa way back in 2003 but immediately regretted my decision when the only UK dealer went bust and left me with no support whatsoever. It is still running but I have had to replace both pumps, the control panel 3 times and all of the jets which go yellow with age. All parts have to be ordered from a supplier in the USA which means the cost is far more than it should be but still cheaper than getting their local "dealers" in France or the UK to order them for me.

      I now have a leak and it is virtually impossible to get the parts I need to fix it. I would never buy an American made product again without the local support to provide warranty and maintenance. Dimension One make no effort to support customers outside of the US and Canada so cannot recommend the company even though the hot tub is great and has been working for almost 20 years.

      Overall I am pleased with the hot tub function, but the LED light bezels are falling off, and the neck pillows don't hold up. it would never connect to any router, and I can't get a return call or email from them to fix this issue.

      It has been frustrating since we purchased the spa. Wiring for the electrician was difficult to get to, and an additional $1500 to wire that I did not realize I had to do. Distributors of this product do not give any instructions at delivery. They order it, and drop it at your home and leave. Let you know that the manual is behind the panel, tell you to get your electrical done, fill it and you should be good to go. But if not, a service call to show you how to use and set up is another $185. So DO NOT buy unless you already have experience with a spa, because you will not get any help. Very poor design to get to the motor, pump and hoses. You have to take the front panel off, which is very difficult to put back on.

      Another really bad aspect is, if it is hot outside the water will heat to over 107 and you can't ever use the spa during the summer. We set the temp to 58 degree and it did not matter. I was told that due to the installation and that there is no cooling system, that if it is hot outside the spa will heat to very hot, just leave the lid off to help or continue to drain out the hot water and cool down with the hose by adding cold water. This spa is also very hard to step down into because there is no level spot with the way that the seats are arranged. This makes it very easy to slip and fall, so be careful This is our 1st spa to buy and I would never buy another. This has been a nightmare of an experience, that I wish I had never done.

      Well after phone calls and 4 months we still have not had a resolution in our hot tub being fixed. We found out that the Dimension One logo in our hot tub was installed wrong when we purchased the hot tub and for 10 years when we asked about why when we filled the hot tub it would drop down below the logo that it was normal. Find out that the water was seeping thru these holes and have completely rotted our hot tub away. Dimension One so far at customer service response is, "Sorry. Out of warranty. Not our problem." Now we have a non functioning hot tub and no one to repair as the repair guy won't come fix it!!! DO NOT BUY Dimension One. They don't stand behind their product and won't make it right with our hot tub!!!
