We bought a hot tub for seven persons from Master Spas and it was on our budget. They were having a sale and that was the reason we wanted to get it. This tub has lights and several jets, but my old hot tub was much better. It had more features. And the first day we tried to use this tub, one of the big jets came off completely. When I called Master Spas, they didn’t offer anything to satisfy the problem. They just told me they would order it and call me. Then, they brought the wrong thing and they told me they would bring the new one in the same week. That was two weeks ago and up to now, they haven't come to change it. When I followed up, the lady gave the excuse that she didn’t receive my email. I resent it to her while I kept her on the phone, then she got it but it's the same email I sent before.
It’s very disappointing because you pay a lot of money for these things and they don’t take care of the customers. They're nice and they offer you everything when you buy it, but after that, they seem to forget. It's my third hot tub and I've never had a problem like that before so I'm not happy with that. Things can break, but if they took care of the situation immediately, I would've been happy. I've lived in this country for 30 years and I've bought a lot of tubs. What I always feel good about this country is that they care about the customers and if they made a mistake or they didn’t do something right, they always make it right. But I'm having a very bad experience with Master Spas and I really don’t like that.
Hi Maritsado, we're so sorry to hear that you haven't had a good experience with Master Spas so far. We want to make sure all of our customers are happy with their purchase, including you! I've forwarded your feedback on to our corporate customer care team so that they can review it and determine the best way to help you out in this situation. Thank you for the honest feedback, we greatly appreciate it!

We drove 90 minutes to get the Pomona Fairgrounds in hopes of finding a deal on a new hot tub. We heard in the local radio that it was free parking and free admission so we surprised to see they wanted $10 for parking. We looked at the spas and found them to be overpriced. We spoke to one salesman who showed little interest in selling anything. Followed by another with a bad attitude who refused to even give us his name! He tried to give a fake name - Timothy Olyphant (an actor). Any place that the employees refuse to give you even their name is highly suspicious. These people were rude and extremely shady. I would NEVER buy anything from them.
Hi Ryan. I'm so sorry that you felt that the sales representatives were rude, however I can assure you that he did not give you a fake name. Yes, there is an actor named Timothy Olyphant, but we also have a sales rep who shares the same name. I guarantee you he wasn't trying to be shady, it's just a coincidence. We're very sorry that you didn't have a good first impression of us. Thank you for the feedback.

We saw Master Spas was having a sale one day. Since we had decided we wanted a spa, we went to the sale and bought one. The Balance 8 spa's size led us to purchasing it. It also has a lounger, waterfall feature, and LED lighting. I love it. It’s great to have in the afternoons to get into. I had a few issues with Master Spas though, but they tried to deal with those to get a resolution. The original salesman told me that the spa has a lifetime warranty on the shell. We found out it's not, so they gave me the extended warranty for free. Then the salesperson also said that the lift bracket was included depending on which one I needed. I might need one that I would have to pay for or one that came standard with it. And then I found out it didn't and I had to buy it. But the guy worked with me and he fixed the problem by giving the lift bracket for free.
Hi Bradley! We're glad that you're enjoying your spa. Sounds like you might've had a few hiccups but we're happy to hear that your rep was able to help you out with those. Thanks for the feedback! We appreciate it.

I bought a two-person hot tub from Master Spas. The Master Spa team was great. They were friendly and helpful and they weren't pushy. The quality of the hot tub is fantastic and the cost in relation to it is good. The bathtub has been very helpful for my back. It was an overall great experience.

I haven’t been too happy with Master Spas especially the way they called the first couple of times. They were very impolite and they didn’t state who they were so I got very angry. The second time the lady called and she was very rude to me because I wouldn’t give her my wife’s information and that’s when I hang up on her. I run a business with 25 employees. When they call somebody, I make sure that they let that customer know who they're with, their name, and what they're calling about. But that was never done the first three times in the call. It was to the point where I was ready to go to my bank and get the money and not even deal with them.
I used to have hot springs before I got the Twilight Series hot tub. I've had to put more money into the hot tub as far as maintaining the chemicals versus my hot springs. I could leave the hot springs for two weeks and not get into the pool and the clarity would be fine. This one, if I don’t keep up with it every three days, the water would be terrible. I even went back yesterday and told them I made a mistake when I bought the hot tub.
The other company is top of the line and I should have never got rid of my hot tub. The hot tub from Master Spas is bigger than the one I had before and it's less expensive but I get what I pay for. The cosmetic portion of it and the lining is beautiful but as far as the maintenance and the tub itself, I'm not happy with it and I'm very dissatisfied.
Hi Tony, we're very sorry to hear that you aren't satisfied with your hot tub. Were you contacting your dealer's customer support or our corporate customer support? Either way, I agree that no customer support representative should present themselves in a rude manner. Thank you for making us aware of the situation.

I use my Master Spas hot tub every day. It helps with sore muscles and back. It works well and I’m pretty good at keeping the chemicals balanced and I sent one email and they told me how to correct one thing I wasn't sure about. Moreover, I got the electronic keypad or the push pad for the jets and waterfall feature.

I was in a showroom buying chemicals and a salesman showed me the Master Spas. They had nice people and when I asked questions, they’ve answered all of them. They were good people to work with. We got the Balance 7 as it seemed to fit what we were looking for, the price and size were right. It's a pretty nice spa. I also liked that it had the magnetic spa in one corner. My wife had some experience with the magnetic spa and it helps.
We've had it for about six months and we use it quite frequently. It’s pretty user-friendly. I already drained and refilled it once and it was pretty easy to do. There might be a couple of things I would change, though. Otherwise, it’s given us the chance to actually use a hot tub. We bought a house with one but it's leaking and not in very good repair. And my wife has rheumatoid arthritis so we’ve been looking to buy one for a long time. It’s been great. We're happy with our spa and we love it.
Hi Dan! We're so happy to hear that you and your wife are happy with your Balance 7! Sounds like it was a perfect fit for what you were looking for. Thanks for the feedback!

We purchased Master Spas' top of the line 80 x 90 spa in an expo. We were looking at it with someone with an impulsive vibe and it seemed like a really nice spa. Also, it has a sound system, wifi, UV cleaning and magnetic therapy in the seat. We had a spa before and this seemed much better compared to what we had. There's a lot more features, seats and everything works with any type of electronic stuff like Bluetooth or wifi connections.
We got a terrible support. They basically set it on our patio in the back and we took it from there. I had it hooked incorrectly to the ground faulty circuit and have to get all of the usages figured out on my own with no help from the people that I bought it from. But I've talked to their online support a couple of times and they were really good. I called them to get the Bluetooth up and running, get the default password, get the chemicals balanced in the tub and what I had to do to get the chemicals right for the first time. Also, we’re happy with the spa. It works fine and does everything we thought it was supposed to do. From that standpoint, the quality control was really good. We enjoy using it and I'm satisfied with what I bought.
Hi Tom! Although it sounds like the delivery process unfortunately didn't go as smoothly as you had hoped, we're still very happy to hear that you are enjoying the spa! I'll be sending you an email shortly regarding the delivery issues. Thank you for your feedback! We appreciate it.

I did a research and Master Spas was one of the highest quality rated hot tub brands on the market. The size and the price got me attracted to their spa and both their sales person and installation team were good. The sales guy really needs to work on his spiel though. It must have been five different times that he said the same thing to me. He said, “I’m gonna be totally honest with you here.” And it’s like, “Okay. So, sometimes you’re not totally honest only if you say you’re going to be?” It’s a weird statement to make.
Also, the cost is a little bit high at $10,000 and that was on sale. It’s like a car and it sucks that it’s so expensive but I didn’t want any junk. I could’ve gotten one for $5,000 and I probably could've gotten a piece of junk. This is something we want to have for at least 10 years or more. So, we thought of getting a quality piece and hopefully, it’ll work good for us for a while. The tub’s quality is pretty good so far. My wife and I enjoy it together so it’s good quality time. The nice thing is there are no computer, phones, emails, texts, TV or radio. It’s something that can force us to put that stuff down, even if it is just for 20 minutes and just talk, stare and look at the stars, enjoy nature and each other a little bit, and get away from some of that stupidity. It’s great.

We had been looking at hot tubs and we saw the Master Spas' Twilight 7.2 in a show. It had a pretty good price so, I ended up buying it. It's a spur of the moment. It's got the Bluetooth stereo, the low-light, a waterfall and all kinds of jets. Overall, the tub is pretty good. I'm maybe a little concerned about the frame being wood and how long it'll last or if it will rot. Also, I've noticed the one in the controls there, the switch from certain jets sticks and is hard to operate. That's probably one of my biggest complaints. But other than that, everything looks pretty good. I'm hoping it'll last quite a while but I'd definitely consider them again if I was looking for another tub. Also, I'd recommend it.

The Twilight series looked like it had everything I wanted. After I bought it, I couldn't get the guy to call me back, except for setting up the delivery, and I hardly got him to answer my text messages. He was really great until the Master Spas team called to ask me for the prescription which I was trying to get a hold of the guy to figure out the address to send it to. I told them everything that I had issues with and that's when I got a callback.
I like that the product has good jets, but the sound system doesn't seem as good as it was when I first got it. When it connects to my iPad now, it cuts out some. Also, from what the guy told me when I bought it, it was supposed to be able to connect to my Alexa but it does not. The product is a little bit below average and the cost should be lower for what I got. I had a Sundance before and the difference is like night and day. I should have bought from somewhere else. People should look up the warranty and the information that the dealer gives them before they buy.
Hi Amber, we're so sorry to hear that you haven't had the best experience with your Twilight spa. One of our customer care representatives will be in contact with you soon to get more information about the situation and try to help you out. Thank you for the feedback. We appreciate it.

My daughter purchased a spa; it was delivered and within 4 days was not functioning properly. She cannot get a return call from the dealer (Ted's Best Buy Pools and Spas, Mayville, OH). She cannot get Master Spas in Indiana (the parent company) to honor the warranty or replace the malfunctioning unit.
Deb, I was informed that your local dealer responded quickly to your concerns and actually did replace the unit already. As always, Master Spas stands behind and honors the warranty we put on our products and we will continue to do so. We look forward to hearing you’re enjoying your hot tub.

Master Spas gave us a great deal on their Twilight Series 8.2. However, we weren't satisfied with it at first because I couldn't get the water regulated and the filter gave us all kinds of trouble. I was ready to have them come and pick it back up, but they sent me a new filter and now it's doing the job. I've had a great experience with Master Spas overall and I hope that the product holds up.

The local retailer bought a whole bunch of Master Spas' particular model of a hot tub as a year-end close out. It was a nice tub for a nice price so I bought one. My interactions with their team have all been perfect. They did exactly what they said they’d do for the price and on the day they said they’d do it, and that’s good business.
I've had the tub for about 6 months now and I like it. It's in a covered patio that's very conducive to it. It takes up a little bit of space but we have a perfect place for it. I don’t have a lot of aches and pains for an old man, but I like using the tub usually in the evening, and it’s very relaxing. The quality is very good and I’m very happy with it. The one that I bought has one pump as opposed to two, which is plenty enough power for me since I don’t even turn on the pump half of the time. Also, I live in an area where it gets fairly warm in the summer and since we were gone for half of June, I drained it and I won’t fill it again until the cooler weather sets in. But I enjoyed using it every day until I went on a cruise trip.

I got a 7.25 Master Spa hot tub. I went to a hot tub sale and that was the one I liked. It did not have a lounge, which I wasn't a particular fan of and also, I like how it's set up and the seating position in it. I was very pleased with the Master Spa team. They definitely gave me a good deal. The tub costs a lot of money but the quality is pretty good. I've only had it for three months now and so far, I really haven't had any issues with it. It's been great for my pretty physically intensive job for just having friends over socially too.
The only thing I was disappointed with was I did not know that the stereo system was not included with the hot tub. I'm kind of looking towards that and so it gets delivered, I'm getting everything set up, and it wasn't there. I read the literature and I found out that it's an optional equipment that I was never offered. Other than that, Master Spas has been easy to work with and my experience has been very positive.
Hi Juan! We're so happy to hear that you are enjoying your spa! We also want you to know that we are sorry that it wasn't made clear that the stereo system is optional. I'll be sending you an email regarding that shortly. Thank you for the feedback! We appreciate it greatly.

I’m very specific on the dimensions of a good looking spa that would fit into a concrete pit I got. I bought my spa in a fake expo and Master Spas came and delivered. I won’t say the install guy did a bad job because they did everything they were supposed to do but he cut a bad hole in my panel for the electric. He had the piece upside down so I have a hole at the top of a corner piece he was going to replace it but I never heard back from him. I ended up fixing it because that's a perfect hole for wasps to penetrate the spa and make a mess. It looks okay since I painted it and it’s hidden and slides underneath the fiber glass part of the spa.
It was an interesting crew that came out but they did a good job. I had a Jacuzzi brand spa before and it lasted 13 years. The wood skirt rotted away but mechanically it just kept going. I've replaced the heater and a small part once in a while and it just went and went. Let's see how this Master Spas does in the long term. It has lots of jets, a built-in hose and a heater.

We were looking for a Jacuzzi like the one that broke and Master Spas has a tub that was decent-priced. It was a 6.5-ft tub and the cost was about average. That Jacuzzi tub for a house could cost $1,500 to $2,000. My interaction with the customer service team was fair. I had a problem with my filter and it took them almost a month to get me a new filter. I had to call them 4 or 5 times to get my filter replaced, and pieces that came missing from the delivery. Still, I'm happy with the Master Spas tub and using it makes my daily life better.

I did a very deep research on the different products in the market and bought a Twilight 8.2 from Master Spas. I liked the number of jets, the design, and the quality of the product. I really like the fusion system on it. It’s very good. Their sales reps were great, too. We live in El Paso, but we bought the product in Las Cruces because we really liked these people.

We saw the Master Spas at a local weekend fairground expo. I had one at the house that was very similar but smaller and I was having a lot of problems with it. It was great functioning Jacuzzi but was close to 20 years old. I couldn’t get parts for it because of the age of the tub. It was time to just upgrade. I got the Master Spa Clarity Balance 8 and it has cool features. It has 48 jets and 2 pumps, sits 6 people and holds 465 gallons of water. The first guy that brought the hot tub out was by himself and couldn’t physically get it up on the deck. He rescheduled, came back another two or three days later and installed it with four guys. They were good and they explained the details.
One small complaint is that there was a slice in the stuff that goes around. I took pictures, let the guys know and I figured they ordered the part. Overall, the people were good and the product is also good. It's fairly-priced, functional, and fairly easy to maintain. Plus, maintaining the valves is much easier than my old tub. It’s like having mini vacations when I can get time to get in there. We’re enjoying it and I like the reclining area, which hits your back, the bottom of your legs and your feet.

I got a 7 x 7 hot tub from Master Spas which was a deal at one of the spring home shows. It was a good price. However, they had a bunch of people looking at spas so the sales reps were pretty quick. There wasn’t a lot of discussion about how to take care of the spa. It was just, “Here’s the features, here’s the price. Let’s do the paperwork.” We were told to throw a couple of teaspoons of chlorine in the spa once a week and it should be good. But that is so far from the truth in how to maintain a spa. So, we’ve gone to a local company who’s helping us work through exactly what kind of chemicals to use, how often to use them, etc. We would have chosen a different spa that has less maintenance. Nevertheless, the spa is great and it's just what we wanted. It’s not too big and it doesn’t have a lot of extra features. We enjoy it. Also, the guy who sold us the spa recommended someone to install it and they did a good job installing it.

So I purchased a Michael Phelps swim spa at a special show in the Pacific Northwest. This is supposed to be a top of the line swim spa. Initially, I got the water balanced and everything was fine - except the control pads are extremely difficult. Then my water started getting cloudy and nothing would help. Now I have found out this filtration issue is known to Master Spa. There is a reducer in the filtration line that does not allow the water to be pulled through the filter. I have now owned this for two months. Of the two months, I was able to use it for about two weeks. Meanwhile, this company that "treats our customers like family" has not shipped the parts to the repair person to fix this. Now my cover is damaged from all the mold.

We’ve been looking for hot tub for years. There was a spa sale at the Bear Ground and I went in there. I didn’t know what to expect but then I found this one and a bigger one. We spent the extra money to get the Twilight Series from Master Spa and we love all the features, including the lights, the jet, the power, and the quietness. Everything about it is great. It's the first hot tub for my home. The salespeople were great, no-BS, and straight to the point. They gave me the freedom to choose what I wanted and they were okay with any decision I made and did not try to pressure me in anything, which was a comfortable situation. Plus, delivery was great. The delivery guys were very respectful of all my gardening stuff.
I would’ve preferred a lounge on one side. That’s what I was shooting for, but I’m okay with that situation because it can hold more people. A reason I got the more expensive one was location and quantity of jet. It's great, but I may have to replace the cover because it leaks and is a little funky. After work, it’s nice to jump in the shower and go to the hot tub for a little bit for a good downtime of relaxation. It’s very pleasurable and it’s exactly what I thought it’d be. I’ve recommended it.

We've used hot tubs in hotels and really liked it. I find it relaxing. We've been looking for one and when we went to an event, we liked the 7-ft hot tub by Master Spas.

Master Spas was having an expo which happened to be one that I went to. They were the only ones there and I was in the market for a hot tub. I ended up buying the Healthy Living tub and I like the number of jets in it. I haven't had it that long but so far, it's been working fine.

I had another hot tub in the past. It was great for the first two years and then it started falling apart after that. We were looking around for a tub for about a year and going with Master Spas was convenient. I wanted something small and versatile and got the triangular tub from them. I've had it for about a month now and it's doing really good. It takes three people. It's got the water fall and the lights, too. It's also got a special seat where the jets hit the neck. I'm disabled and so my back's out, and that's why I got the one I got. It has helped my back and I've already recommended it to other people.

I've been wanting to get a six-person hot tub and my experience with Master Spas' sales rep was good. When we first got the tub, the guy who helped with tech questions all hours of the night when we first got it has been exceptional. Although we have a little bit of a follow-up or tech support and we need some answers, and I haven't made the phone call yet but everything seems well done. The jets on the tub seem to be good, strong and powerful. It seems to be better than a bunch of the used units we looked at. Also, overall construction seems proper and everything is as good as it can be for that product.

I bought the elite series hot tub from Master Spas and the quality was decent. I’ve had a few issues with the Master Spas team and I still do. I’ve talked to one guy, and he’s been helpful. I’m still working through some filter issues that I’m having trouble with. I had to buy a $100 filter cleaner. But that doesn’t seem to be making it work right. I keep cleaning the filter and it keeps getting clogged up. This is just from normal running, not even being in it. The only way that I can get the circulating pump to work properly is it’s got the little mineral injector piece, a little insert on the top of the filter, I do not lock that in all the way. I leave that slightly ajar and it allows enough water to go through, so the circulating pump works. It doesn’t seem like a good fix, but that is the fix.

The Master Spas Healthy Living 8 looked like it would work therapeutically. It has a lot of jets and a lay-down seat and so I got it. I've had it for three weeks and it's been having some issues. I'm concerned that when I cut the jets, its timing doesn't automatically cut on. It pauses, pushes some water out then stops and pushes out some more. It wasn't doing that initially so I know it's not normal. I hope I didn't get a piece of crap. But overall, my experience with it has been decent.

I was at a gala at a convention center where you could go and see a bunch of spas. On a whim, I went and bought the Twilight from Master Spas as it was about the size I needed for my house. This is my first one and I'm very unimpressed with it right now because I've had problems ever since I got it. It took forever to get it to start with. When I got it there and called my electrician, he finally came and hooked it all up. He's a master electrician so there's no problem with the electrical hookups. But I had all kinds of problems because the directions on how to get the water right with the pH level and stuff is all gibberish to me. It's hard to figure out. Last weekend, it wouldn't heat up and all of a sudden, it shut down and the heater started ticking. I never could get anything right on it so I'm not very happy with it.
I've called the people down here in The Woodlands and they are supposed to send somebody out, hopefully. Yesterday, my girlfriend called them to tell them that they needed to come out and fix it. The lady said she didn't know if she can. She's got time on Friday afternoon and the lady said she would call my girlfriend back but never did, so she's going to call them back again today. But if they would just come pick it up and go away with it, I'd be happy.

We were looking for a specific size hot tub and the Twilight from Master Spas was the size that we were looking at. We liked the ability to use minerals in it versus heavy chemicals. This is our second spa. Our last spa had to have a lot of chemicals in it. Master Spas also has LED lighting. But the cost is about 10% higher than what we could have gotten another system which might not have the minerals.
The delivery was great. The reps from Master Spas told me when the hot tub was coming and they were on time. They came in, brought the hot tub, and put it where I wanted it. They also showed me how it worked. My husband uses the hot tub pretty consistently. I just had hip replacement, so I can't get in it again yet. But we use it pretty constantly for aches and pains.

So that part was very frustrating. And anyone I talk to couldn't really give me a straight answer on what was taking so long. But other than that we enjoy the spa and we enjoy what we got.

The people that represented Master Spas seemed quite knowledgeable and very nice. But in retrospect, I feel like a sucker. I could hear their words, but I can't tell what they were, which is the attitude. And the spa that I bought wasn't really the one I wanted. I wanted a different one but the rep said, "It was a small one. Only two people can get in it." And I said, "Really? Why not?" And he just said, "Well, you want this one over here." And I don't know if that would have made any difference. Also, the pump of the spa was never right. It was loud. In fact, my neighbor complained about it. It just got louder and louder and I kept thinking, "What am I gonna do?" And then, it finally just died out of my ignorance. But I had back surgery and I couldn't get anybody to come look at it so it just got neglected. I had it for about a year and a half and I don't think the pump should have done that. So I'm very dissatisfied.

Master Spas was running a special sale in Del Mar for a week-end so my husband and I went down to look. Because we’ve always had a spa and we’ve built a new home, we’re looking for a spa to put there. The purchase went nicely. We appreciate the power of the jets and we like them. Our biggest complaint is it doesn't hold heat. And we had a spa where we lived in the mountains, high altitude, that stays warm all the time and never had a problem with heat. And we were in high altitude where we had freezing temperature. It doesn't get below 60 where we're at but we can't run the jets and keep the temperature over 100.
We’ve even had a tech come out and look at it, and he says, "That's all it will do." When you're running both jets, the heater won't come on, and so we'll lose heat. But even when we only run one jet and the heater is on, we lose heat. It gets the temperature when we set it up to get in. And we get in and it's warm, it feels great initially. But it just doesn't hold the heat. We call it the hot tub, so we expect to be in there nice and hot. It doesn't do that. I’d recommend our old tub, which was made by Hot Springs over the Master Spas.

The information that the salesperson gave me convinced me to go with Master Spas. It was more his knowledge of the tub compared to when we were looking at the Beachcomber and the Arctic spa. It was also because of the ability for the tech to do the install more efficiently than some of the competitors. The reviews online were also good from what we'd seen.
I got the Twilight Series from Master Spas. The salesperson recommended that one based on what I wanted. The features I like about it were the power of the jets, the layout of the different jets like the one for the back and the neck and the lounge seat and also, all the different configurations of the jets versus just having a few jets and not much power as some of the other ones had.
We bought the cheapest spa and overall, we're happy with the decision we made based on the quality and the features. Everything's been very good so far, and we're very happy with it. However, we had a couple of jets that had to be replaced very early on. Also, there's not a lot of information on how to work with your water, keeping the chemicals and things balanced. That's been our biggest reason to call the dealer. It would be a good idea to include some of that information in the package that they get to help deal with pH, alkalinity and chlorine.

I had ThermoSpas before. It was bigger, had lots of jets and did all that arthritic pain removal stuff that it was supposed to, but it didn’t last and the plastic turned to powder on the jets. It turned out I was using pool chlorine instead of spa chlorine as we never got any training or advice on the spa, which probably hastened its demise. We used it for 12 years. I had a room built around that hot tub and so I got that one cut up and needed something to replace it. Master Spas would fit through the doorway with minimal removal of the wall and so I purchased the spa that got choice lounge chairs with lots of jets. It's very nice. It massages the back of my thighs, does my neck and shoulders, got a couple of water features and LED lights that my grandson really enjoyed.
I bought it through Concord Pools in Albany and they sent out a member of their staff to teach me how to use it, put the cover on and install it to make sure everything was installed properly and give me proper training. I have to maintain the water. I ordered it back in the end of January and there's a little delay in getting it. When it arrived it had to sit here for about three weeks waiting for me to return from Europe before I could get it electrified. I've had it for only a week and a half, and the quality is great so far. I use it every morning while my coffee is brewing. Then yesterday my pool got opened and so within a couple of weeks, it will be warm enough for me to go from the hot tub to the pool and that’s nice, my usual morning routine. It was a good experience and I'm happy with the tub. It is doing what I wanted it to do, which is to relax me and wake me up in the morning. I have shown and recommended it to friends.

I’ve been looking at three different hot tubs and we saw the Legend Spa from Master Spas at a trade show. We sat in it and so as the others and Master Spas was the best of the three. I like the configuration of the seats of the tub. It also has a built-in UV ionizer, 4 interior speakers, two external speakers, and Bluetooth. I use the spa every morning and it loosens me up for the rest of the day. Primo Pools was the distributor that sold the spa to us and for the most part, the interactions with their people were fine but they have problems answering phone calls because they’re just over stressed with work. I understand that they may be replacing their salesperson, which may help quite a bit.
However, we had a couple of problems with the spa when it was delivered. The Bluetooth module isn't working, one of the pumps had failed and two of the inside speakers still do not work. The spa was supposedly checked out completely before it left the factory. We talked to the distributor and they were aware of the problems. They replaced the pump, just to replace the speakers and the Bluetooth module, but still couldn’t get the speakers together. There’s probably something wrong with the wiring. Hopefully, they would contact us next week to make an appointment to either re-wire the tub or adjust the tub to get those other speakers working.

I got the upgraded light kit, the three circulation pumps, the MasterPur, the Ozone, the stone exterior cabinet, as well as the WiFi Module. I decided to buy this tub because of my dealer here in Houston, Vince of Primo Spas. I got to look at the spa and he explained it to me, did some research on Master Spas’ reputation, the quality, the reputation and the quality of the dealer and that they provided local service through their own forces in lieu of a third-party service provider. Some of the other spas I considered all offer the same. But they didn't have the same dealer reputation nor did they have the same warranty and reputation as Master Spas.
But when my tub was delivered, it was damaged and one of the pumps has not worked since. My dealer has been out here no less than three times to try to resolve my pump issues, but it still does not function correctly for over a month. They've replaced the pump and tried replacing a board. I have been going through my selling and servicing dealer because when I call Master Spas, they'll refer me back to my selling dealer. So I've got a $14,000-yard ornament and right now, I'm wishing I went with one of the competitors and maybe I wouldn't have all these problems. My selling dealer is absolutely doing everything within their power to get it resolved but it seems like it is a Master Spas issue. I’m going to publish my comments on every consumer website, the Better Business Bureau, and everybody else if my spa is not fixed this coming week.

Also, they went above and beyond and they were amazing. But we've had three big issues with them. When we went to buy it, we wanted one that plugs in. I didn't want it to be wired and they sold us the wrong one. So, we had to choose a different one which is the same model. It doesn't have as many bells and whistles. I was quite disappointed that the other one was 90% similar but had more lights but that was fine.
Then, when they delivered it, the delivery guys were great but they offered my husband to plug it up for us because they couldn't find the cord. The third thing is that it was leaking and the hose had a hole in it. We use it quite often and we noticed it would go down every other day by at least four inches. When I called, the guy had to ask questions but he made me feel like it was our fault. He was lovely but it was not very nice to blame us. Then, Chris who fixes hot tubs came to fix the hose.

A tree fell on our old hot tub and crushed it so bad. So we looked for a replacement at Castle Rock around Christmas. There was a spa deal coming to Denver where they had a big sale of hot tubs. So I went up there and they had a Master Spas park. We’ve seen the little two traveling salesman type deal, but it didn’t quite feel right. All the tubs were white and it was a good deal in Denver, but it didn’t look and feel like what I knew. So I called the dealer at Castle Rock and he said, “Come on down and I’ll be at my best. I’ll make you a deal.” So he did, and he's been great to work with.
But as for the installation, it was absolutely poor and terrible. I live about three hours away from the store so they were making the delivery out in the can, and just swinging back through. I had my daughter there for the delivery and explained to her what needed to happen. When the tree fell, it ripped up a lot of stuff and so there was a tie in the back that was just pulled out of the ground a little bit that need to be set back down. And the tub need to be set on top of it. But the installers were too lazy to move that tie and put it back down the ground. So they moved the tub forward far enough to where the steps that come with the tub stick out over the railroad ties. If they would have put that back tie where it belongs, the steps would have fit more perfectly on the pad. So now, it’s there permanently. It’s got water in it and you can’t move it out.
Also, I had an electrician wire in the spa so there was this very nice flex-covered pipe that goes into the hot tub. But they broke it off, took the bottom, and ran their wires with the wires over there into the hot tub. They could have done a lot better than just broke it off. Now when it rains, it’s open and the water and weather is going to get inside that pipe, which you don’t want. So I wasn’t very impressed with that. My daughter said she told them x, y, and z, but that's not her cup. And I thought they took advantage of her. But Matt, the guy at the Castle Rock store, has been great to work with and they’ve heard that very same story. I told him the story but he has no control over these idiots.
Now, the hot tub has been part of my life every day but it’s not working for a week now. I talked to a gal named Kat and she told me to go home and take the filters off and turn the jet on low if I want and just let it run for 30 minutes. And it should clear up. She said the sensors just didn’t want that heater to burn up. But when I took the filters out, I didn’t see dirt. The tub’s only 30 days old so I can’t imagine it having too much dirt there.
Hi David. I'm so very sorry that your delivery experience wasn't a positive one. You should be receiving an email shortly from one of our representatives to check up on you and make sure that your spa is up and running properly now. Thank you for the honest feedback. We appreciate it!

I like the lounge chair and the look of the shoulder massager in the Legend Series Michael Phelps spa that we bought. But I had a little trouble with it. The jet switch that is by the lounge chair is not working. They were out right away. I liked that this was made in America and I figured that if I need parts, they’d be quick. But it’s been two weeks and they still haven't come back with the part. Now I'm waiting for it to be repaired. Also one filter clogged up on me in seven days and I'm having problems getting it cleaned. I wish I knew how to change filters because I had a couple of recommendations, but it didn’t work. But I like the spa. It’s very comfortable and nice, and you can just sit in it and chill. I know things go wrong and I deal with it, so that doesn’t upset me too much.

The setup of the seating for the size of the Twilight series tub was conducive to the number of people we would use it for, so we then decided to buy it. We also liked the way that we could take the different spa sections in and out and move them around. But the spa didn’t work when we took it home. We bought it at a home show, so it’s been a struggle for us to be able to get it fixed. But it is fixed now and I had a fabulous interaction with the person that was sent out to fix it with the warranty.

I purchased a Michael Phelps Series 900 Spa from Master Spas, Inc. It was one of the biggest ones in the market and also has lots of therapeutic features on it. But we're having a really bad experience. They haven't got it working yet. We got it delivered three weeks ago and from day one the jets weren't working right. Some would work, some wouldn't and some wouldn't turn off at all. The manager of the store came out once and that was the day after. And that seemed great. But nothing's happened. Then the service guy came out Wednesday. That was the very first service guy to come and figure out what's going on.
He said they're sorry about it and that they're gonna fix it and get everything overnighted but it was three weeks later when they sent somebody finally. He said it was the filters because they hadn't told him the whole story and he was about to leave without doing anything so my husband called and threw a fit. And so, the guy came back and said that it's the motherboard, the Bluetooth and the pump. However, they supposedly replaced the motherboard and it's still not working. They're getting the rest of the parts overnighted and that's supposed to happen hopefully early next week at the latest. But we are still aren't sure that that's gonna fix everything. Originally, it was great customer service but now we've gotten the runaround.
If we don't have this thing working by mid-next week, we're gonna start pursuing legal options at this point because we gave them a check for $15,000 for the spa and we've not gotten our money's worth. Another thing they promised is because there was some cosmetic damage to the spa when it arrived, they were gonna give us a list for the hot tub. But now they're acting like they're not giving us direct answers on that either. But if they end up fixing the spa and doing everything they said even though in an untimely manner, I would update my statement regarding that.
Hi Crystal - thank you for making us aware of these issues. One of our customer care representatives will be contacting you soon to help you get these issues resolved. We're so sorry for the inconvenience, and we thank you for your patience as we get this figured out.

Master Spas was located and referred by Presidential Pools who used to build our pool, so I knew that they were a pretty good company. I got the Twilight series because it had the double chaise lounges in it. I paid it through Jared and he was really good. The pool showed up within three days of when it needed to show up based on all the other things that were going on in the backyard as we never knew whether something will get there on time.
It’s a phenomenal hot tub. As a matter fact, the guy who works for Presidential that did the spa startup referred to it as the “Cadillac of spas”. It seems to be very well-designed and it’s incredibly much more relaxing than I ever thought it was gonna be. My wife and I both sit in one corner of it and the jets are specifically designed to massage the shoulders which are pretty amazing and awesome.
We did the Presidential’s suggestion of a build-out around our above ground spa. We have stacked stone around it with steps up to it with travertine on top that matches the rest of our travertine. It takes something out as really cool, makes the spa really beautiful and incredible because the spa looks like custom-built and part of the backyard rather than an ugly thing sitting on top of the ground. It's high end and well-designed with superior results. I would also strongly recommend anybody to do that build-out.

I heard a commercial on TV that Master Spas was having a thing that weekend. I went in Conroe and the buying process was really easy. Thinking it was a better fit for me, I bought the Healthy Living hot tub. Everything went great with the guys who came out, installed it and did all the things that they did. A guy sat down with us and we took notes. He walked us through everything and he was not in a hurry. He also answered all questions.
However, we're having some trouble with the hot tub since the auxiliary jets won't stay running. The jets over the bench, where you sit and it contours your body, won't stay on for a full 15 minutes. I have called Master Spas and I also left them an email about the matter. The lady who's in charge of that is on vacation this week but she said she was going get someone to either call and walk us through how to fix it or come out. I haven't heard from anybody, though. Other than that, the hot tub's quality is great and I'm ready for it to run like it's supposed to so we could really experience it.

Master Spas had a spa show in Asheville, North Carolina at the Ag Center. And the only reason I bought a Master Spa is because they put on a show for a three-day weekend and brought them all in and had specials. I got the Michael Phelps spa because it was the best that they make, and it has triple filtration, which mattered to me a lot.
The sales staff was outstanding and the best. I had to call service because there was a leak. The guys showed up the next day, figured it all out, drained it, flipped it upside down, cut out the broken pipe and put in a new one, all before I got home from work. Having the tub has improved the life of my whole family. We’re in it every day and I get home from a long day at work and sink right into it, and it’s heavenly. There’s an app that is associated with the spa wherein you could check on your spa or turn on your spa before you get home. So, when I’m in the office, I should be able to go on the app and turn on the heat and it’ll be heated by the time I get home. However, that app needs to be updated.

I met with a couple of the sales reps at one of those spa shows in Tudor Park. I was in the market and the HL 8.5 fit all the criteria that I was looking for. This one's far better than any of the ones we've had in the past. The size was right and the way the seats were designed looked like it was going to work better than one of those with the lay-down seat in it. I also like the interchangeable jets. I can unscrew the ones from one side and bring them to another seat if I wanted to and I can change the pressure of each jet. It put me way over budget but I’m glad that I went higher in with it instead of finding another cheap tub. We got a cheap one in the past and then a mid-quality one and I can see why they're charging a little more for the Master Spas tub.
And then I had an issue with the HOA and whether or not I was going to be able to get a slap-down for it. So I talked to the delivery guy a few times about trying to coordinate and getting a good delivery on it. Then I had to give them a call today because we finally got the water in it, got the electrical hooked up and there may be something leaking on it. They passed my information on to one of their technicians and he’s supposed to get in touch with me in the next couple of days. I’d like to see all the other stuff get addressed but with the dealings I’ve had with everybody so far, they've been very friendly and helpful. All in all, I enjoy the tub quite a bit. I’ve already had a knee rebuilt and I don’t have a bathtub that’s big enough and the tub has been wonderful for me.

I was excited to get my Plug and Play Hot Tub. We bought it at the Hot Tub Show. Unfortunately, it wasn't exactly a plug and play. First, it needs a specific outlet, not more amps, but a single outlet/plug in and not a double outlet. I have a standard double outlet and so I had to get an adapter until I can get an electrician out to change the outlet. Secondly, this was such a new type of hot tub, there was a defective part that needed to be replaced before it could be used. They replaced the part with another defective part that the technician had to file the ball bearing down. Fortunately, it is working now. So after a month, we were finally able to enjoy our hot tub.

I like all the jets in the Master Spas tub and the ability to easily move them around, which I could not do in my previous tub. It's cheaper, easier to maintain, less chemicals and easier on the pocket when utility bills come in. I put in a service call to have a pump replaced, because it would not function the duration of a soak, and that was easily taken care of.

My wife has circulation problems. We looked at all of the spas and Master Spas, from a quality and features standpoint, had the best that was out there. We got the LSX 800 spa hot tub however, the manual was very inefficient in terms of the inner workings of the spa and there were also various problems in getting everything started. The distributor was terrible too. Both the owner and the sales manager couldn’t be bothered with me because they already had my money. The difficulty we had starting it up got me to a point where I wanted to take it back. But, fortunately, this one young lady really went on efforts in terms of solving my problems and getting me up and running. She was able to contact an engineer and got a drawing of the various vents and control mechanisms. So far, we had one diverter that was faulty and we’re in the process of replacing that.
Otherwise, the spa has worked out well and it's feature-loaded. But Master Spas needs to expand the troubleshooting area in their manual. The pumps are a real problem and a neophyte really can’t get it done. You really don’t know what’s going on. The area in regards to filters is way underwritten too and almost all the problems end up being the filters clogging and the maintenance of the filter system is critical.
The heater’s in the wrong place as well. It’s very high in the hydraulic schematics and that allows it to constantly load up with air then it shuts down. Trying to get this thing started took me three days. I had to pour water in it and fire it up. Also, it’s a complex mechanism but there should be more effort by the distributor. They dropped it off and connected it electrically. When I didn’t have any questions, which I didn’t know enough to ask a question, they were happy to leave. For the $15,000 price, it wouldn’t hurt them to have somebody come back 24 hours later to make sure things are running as it is. In my case, I’m still calling the distributor and asking for help.

We were supposed to get our Master Blaster spa no later than January 15th, but it came March the 13th. They informed me that they had to make a new one.

My wife and I had taken a small vacation in Gatlinburg, Tennessee. We had a little cabin out in the woods and on deck was a hot tub. And then we decided after a week of being there that we just needed to get us one of those. We had been looking locally at things that were for sale. There were four different places here in town that do spas and hot tubs. So, we had an idea of what we were looking for and a price in mind of what particular model was typically worth. Then we happened to be out at a show at the fairgrounds here at the same time Master Spas was having a deal. And they were the only ones there. My wife and I looked at each other and went, "Let's go ahead and do it. This is our chance, they're not local, we don't know them. This is gonna be good for us."
However, it didn't start well because the asking price for the spa was almost double what it was worth. And whoever was selling them there was not in the know. Since I had been informed and I had been shopping, I already knew what the number I was wanting to spend was. And in the end, they decided to take it and we bought one. But I didn't really like dealing that way. And I almost turned around and walked away. But my wife saved the deal.
We got the hot tub and we bought it because of the amount of jets. It had 41 jets and two different pumps. And it's typically a five-person spa, which is really only good for four, but that's okay. That's all we wanted. And Master Spas makes a good product. Sooner or later, people would ask, "What did you get for that?" Had I told them I gave them the price that was originally asked from me, they'd all look to me and say, "Why, you big dummy." But we bought the spa in the $7,000 range and I was asked over $12,000 from the get-go. And that's a big difference.
So glad to hear you're enjoying your new hot tub after enjoying one first on vacation. It sounds like you actually had the last laugh by getting such a great deal on it. Happy hot tubbing!

We had a Sundance spa, which we liked so well but it was just 110 and we didn't think it had enough power. We then decided that maybe we needed a 220 so when we were in a show by Master Spas in Des Moines, we decided to buy their spa. The people who came and set up the spa were very good with my husband. They told him about the spa and showed him a little bit about it. The spa is nice and I'm happy with the quality but we've had a hard time balancing the chemicals in it. Sometimes, the pH is too high, and there are a lot of bubbles. The salesman said to not add chlorine all the time because it has something in it.
There should be a one-on-one verbal instruction rather than having to read all the complicated paperwork instructions. The people who set up the spa didn't show my husband how to run the spa and didn't tell him about the chemicals. Maybe all the companies are like that because it was the same when we bought our Sundance spa, where they didn't give verbal instruction too. When buying an $8,000 spa, one should get more instructions other than the written stuff. Except for that issue, I'm very happy with the spa and it's 220, which is more powerful than my other one. And I'd recommend Master Spas.

The dealer hired a couple of guys to deliver the hot tub, and they did an all right job. It is so much nicer compared to our previous hot tub. It has more jet and power, and easier to maintain. It has very high quality, and I really like the construction on the outside because that's gonna last forever. The old hot tub was cedar on the outside, that's why it was constantly breaking. So far, I'd recommend Master Spas.
Hi Bill! It's so good to know how happy you are with your hot tub and how much it's been able to help ease your aches and pains! Our tubs are great for hydrotherapy - and we're glad you've been able to experience that first hand! Thank you for sharing your experience. We appreciate it!

Master Spas has a better price than the other brand I was considering which was a couple of thousand dollars more. Their guys who delivered it were creative on getting it in our backyard. They dropped off the hot tub and left, though it would've been nice if it could've been set up. So thankfully, I had a contractor hook it up. However, I'm having an issue with the two jets. They're functioning, but they are like sucking air and are noisy.

The design of the spa from Master Spas was one of the reasons I got it. It fit in the space that I had, the motor was on the side that I needed it to be on and the steps were where they needed to be. Also, it was a lot nicer than the one I had which was 15 years old. It's a good foot deeper than the other tub I and I like the bed of the hot tub but the lounger is so low into it. I can't lay on it and it’s not working for me because I float up. And then a week after we had tub, one of the jets came off. It took a while to figure it out but we put it back on ourselves. The people from whom we bought it from were nice and were doing their job well. The guys that installed it were very good too. Overall, it's good quality and we’ve been happy with it. But I found one that’s much nicer at Sam’s for $1,000 less. I should have waited a bit and looked around but I didn’t. However if I’d have gotten the one from Sam’s, I would have probably had to install it myself and do all of that.
Hi Cliff! We're so happy to hear that you are enjoying the quality and design of your Balance 7 by Master Spas! We know there are always cheaper products out there but you’ll save more with the Clarity Spa over the life of the product by the savings on your electric bill and by being able to use fewer chemicals than any hot tub purchased through a big box store.

We bought a house and the previous owners had a hot tub installed in a deck that was built around it. We wanted one that worked but also needed one that fit into the hole so we went to the local store, the Aqua Spas, and purchased the Twilight Series. The folks at Aqua Spas have been good. The hot tub has some neck jets that are up above and that's our favorite thing. We fight over who gets that seat. Master Spas is also good with the warranty. We've got some jets that don't seem to work and asked them to deliver some to the local store and then we picked them up. We wanted to make sure they didn't come out because they only do that for free for a couple of times and we wanted to save that for a real problem.

On 1/28/17. I attended the home show at the convention center in west palm. At that time I purchased a spa, Precision 7 # 170094. I paid in full. Check available on request. When I was supposed to get delivery, I was told the spa came in damaged and to come in and pick another. I was steered to a completely different unit (I feel it was a lesser unit ). I think they realized they sold me a unit for the wrong price. Since then I have had problems. In fact next Wednesday the repair guy is coming to replace the whole filter cartridge basket (the cartridge will not screw in because the bottom part was installed incorrectly). Also the waterfall has to be replaced because the holes are clogged. The cover for the cartridge floats in the spa because it cannot sit correctly. The unit I relieved was the Clarity serial # 1700194. I would like someone to contact me.

I’ve seen a lot of spas and when I saw the Master Spas, it seemed a lot better while the other ones look cheaply made. We decided if we were going to get a spa, we’d get one from the Master Spas. It’s supposed to have the quietest motor on the market and it doesn’t take chlorine-type chemicals so I don’t have that burning stuff in my eye and I don’t smell all that. I come home from a hard day’s work and get in the tub for a little while before I go to bed and it helps a lot. It energizes and makes me feel good.

I'd been looking for a new hot tub as my old one died, and have been on the market for months. I got a hot tub from Master Spas, and it's a thousand times better. It's one of their standard hot tubs and it has the waterfalls. I liked it because it was deeper and it had more jets. My girlfriend's cousin owns the business, so I got a hell of a deal on it. I also like it because I install it and it has better price. The only issue I had so far with the hot tub is that the orange insert filter came apart. They told me to just bring it to the store and they would gladly exchange it. The tub is great and of good quality. I went to Alaska and worked 18 hours, then came home and lived in it for three days straight. It made me feel great.

Master Spas have an expo for the last 3-4 years in the Civic Center in Port St. Lucie and we went there and looked as we do every year. This year, we finally did it and we got the triangle one called 240 because I was restricted with space. It has all standard features like the lights, except Bluetooth or music. The quality of the spa is first-rate and the finish is good. The tub was mostly for my wife. We're not springs chickens, but we're active and we spend too much time and too hard at the gym, so the tub has made it easier for her and for me.
I'm happy with the spa but the dealer sucks so bad I would never do business with them. They're terrible and they won't even answer the phone half the time. I had some questions and I asked for the tech to come out and set an appointment but they never called nor showed. They also did not tell me that I could get a spa with no tax if I had a note from my doctor, the chiropractor and all that. So on the day that they were gonna deliver it, I went down to their little remote site and told them they're not putting the spa in unless I get the tax taken off, which I'm entitled to. They did but it was like pulling teeth. Now, I buy my chemicals online and I don't want anything to do with those people.

Master Spas had some of the best customer service reviews in the area. We bought one of their entry line hot tubs, the Clarity. It was within the price range that we were looking for. They were able to give us a bigger discount since it was a floor model. And it came with more features than we were actually looking for which is novel. The person we spoke with was one of their newer sales people. He helped us understand what the features were. And he showed us the differences between what we had as far as what we were gonna get with energy savings. That helped a lot. And we also had one of those kismet things. A friend of ours walked in the door as we were deciding and he said he's got two hot tubs from them. So, for us it was like, “Okay! We definitely like these guys.”
We dealt with their customer service when we had a question after they had installed it. And the customer service was quite good with the technician they sent over. He was knowledgeable, and spent about an hour with my husband just talking about the motor. He talked about how the motor worked as far as what to search for if we hear any strange noises. Just because it was a brand-new spa, and you always listen for those strange noises to see if it’s a problem or not. The power savings did come through, and it cuts the bill from our old one. It was $50 a month down to about $25 which is fantastic. It’s really easy to maintain. And it maintains its heat which is really good. It barely runs and yet it keeps it where we want it to be.

I got a hot tub from Master Spas when I went to a show that they had, but it was a spur-of-the-moment decision. I got the basic model, with the jets and lights. It's a corner unit, so it only fits three people. I didn't need a large option. However, within three days after installation, one of the motors went out. I called the dealer that I purchased the hot tub from and he arranged for the repair. A local repairman was sent out to fix the problem, and it was two and a half weeks before the hot tub was fully operational. But other than that, they were responsive to my request for assistance and the motor has been working fine since the repair work was done.
The repairman, who could be a contractor either with the local dealer that I purchased the hot tub from or with Master Spas, was not complimentary of whoever he was working for. He said that he does repair work for a number of hot tub manufacturers, and most of them will send replacement pieces and tell him to throw away the defective piece. But in this case, he was told that he had to pay for the replacement motor and return the defective one, and they had to determine that the motor was in fact defective before he would get reimbursed for the money that he had paid for the motor, and this policy is shady.
He said that, in the future, he was going to terminate his arrangement with them because of that policy. He also said that I might have problems getting repairs made because of that policy, since very few repairmen that he knows in the industry are going to purchase parts and not know if they're going to get reimbursed. So, if I have bigger problems and I find that it's a struggle to get these repaired, that will be a huge issue.
One of the big sales pitches that was given at the show was that the product was better than others on the market because of the way that it was insulated and the ease of access to do any maintenance activities. The salesman even had a floor model opened up so that we could see underneath, that it was not full of foam, but had a silver-like, thermal lining underneath. He repeatedly said that, with other manufacturers, when you open up the bottom of the hot tub, all you see is foam and it's a struggle to access and replace the pieces that you need to do maintenance on.
However, when the repairman showed up to pull out the bad motor and opened the bottom of our hot tub, there was no insulated, silver-like, thermal lining underneath and the entire bottom was full of foam. So, they used that as their sales pitch and the model that they showed on the floor didn't have all that foam, but when the repairman showed up, he was complaining because he was having a hard time getting to what he needs to with all the foam.
At the end of the day, who knows why the motor malfunctioned? It could have been from all the dust from the foam or a number of other things. And I didn't get an owner's manual for a spa I spent a grand on, so I have no idea of anything about it. There's a 90-page manual you can print from online, but given the amount of money I paid, I would've expected to be given an owner's manual.
Moreover, from watching the repairman replace the motor, I observed that there was no water shut-off valve underneath, or if there was one, he couldn't get to it because it was buried in foam. So, he had to pull a motor and it instantly drained the hot tub all over him and the deck. The underneath of the hot tub was clearly wet because of all the water that had ran out. I’m not mechanically-inclined but it doesn’t seem safe that you would have to work under the tub and not be able to shut that water off.
Another thing is that the show where I purchased the tub from was advertised as having spas from a number of different manufacturers, but when I showed up at the convention center, the dealer was showing only one line of spas, that of Master Spas, so I felt like that was misleading and a little shady. However, this didn't affect my purchasing. I had done a little bit of research. But from an advertising perspective and from what I saw when I was looking for some online reviews after this experience, I found a number of people posting messages on different boards that they experienced the same thing that I did.
It was mid-February by the time the hot tub was operational. Now that the motor has been replaced, I am pleased with the functioning of the spa. I got into the hot tub and relaxed. In the short time that I've used the tub, it seemed to be a good product. But because of what I saw underneath the tub, I would caution people that they could potentially run into issues with maintenance.

Install people were very nice. We leveled and prepared the area for install, but the spa did not get leveled after it was placed so now it leans to the back corner which causes problems for jets etc... The water was not tested at time of install which later down the road caused major issues. Copper and iron in our city water ended up being the problem. No one knew what this green goop was. Try this chemical, try this, try that. As first time hot tub owners we struggled hard and had no clues as to why we were getting all of this green sticky goop everywhere.
Finally after 2 months of struggling with buying chemicals, buying a attachment for the hose and trying to fix the issue we drained the tub and started over. To me this all could have been eliminated with a water test at install. This would have told us the products we should be using and what to expect from our spa, and what to watch for. They should just use the hose attachment for install fills, until the customer can bring in a water sample from their home faucet for testing. I think most people working at all the locations need better knowledge of possible problems, and better knowledge of how to fix those problems, not just knowledge on selling. Everyone seems to have a different answer and you just trust that they know what they are talking about.
We still have iron in our tub, but have eliminated the copper (with attachment) even though we are using the hose/tub attachment. No one has any recommendations as to how to get the remaining iron out. We have even had a failed filter that was bad from the get go. We have had a tub shut down which was probably caused by the brand new bad filter, High Bubble bath foaming, and other weird system power surge oddities. Everyone seems great until you have a issue that can't seem to be resolved. I will give props to Jessie at the Castle Rock location for having the best customer service ever. He makes you feel like no matter what, you are an important customer and encourages you to keep at the problem and we can fix it together. Also, Jeff with installation is a keeper for being supportive and helping solve issues when everyone else is at a loss.
Lindsey is very nice, great at selling, but does not have the support she needs when she has a issue she cannot resolve. I think upper management needs refresher courses. Disappointed in several people who I will not name, but they probably know who they are... for not calling back when asked, and others with poor "phone" customer service skills and not following through with tasks. Made me feel terrible for trying to fix on-going issues with the spa. Like we were a burden.
We have come a long way since we purchased our hot tub thanks to YouTube videos and a few key people. We love our spa and want it to stay a pleasure and not a chore. Education to employees, and proper upgraded installation procedures (testing water to find its makeup) could have resolved or eliminated so many of our original issues. Which would have made our first hot tub buying experience so much better. Also maybe pointing the customer to on-line videos for the certain spa purchased would be amazing. Even though we have the manual, it does not explain things well. Videos are awesome!

We purchased Master Spas from Empress Hot Tubs on January 10th of this year. They’re great on sales, but after that, it’s like I don't get the service. I was told by Jacqueline, the owner, that she would come and walk me through on how to use the chemicals and the hot tub, and she didn’t do that. She sent a hot tub service guy who told us some things. Each time he’s come, he’s being nice and told us he knew these other problems may come like tightening the diverter valves in the handles as sometimes these are loose because we had one popped off. If these kinds of things are occasional “loosing” that happen in shipping, something should’ve been done that wouldn’t have happened to us.
We also had a little leak from one of the bolts that apparently wasn’t tightened enough. Then there was a leaking thing that shut off the GSPi breaker. The pumps were also frozen and the water inside was like room temperature just above zero. And then after that, just given different chemicals to have to juggle with, when the maintenance guy is telling us different chemicals to use and the floater that’s easier, it’s like there is confusion. Then the filtration system, if it's running steady or if I have to clock it in because I read in the manual I can set the times to do that. The maintenance guy said that it runs all the time.
And then we had to take out the filters. The maintenance guy said that other filters do it this way while the other one clogs it quicker and it affects the heating. We’ve also hooked up the Wi-Fi thing but then our son checked the settings and the Master Spas’ head thing too. The maintenance guy told us that the Wi-Fi signal isn’t strong enough and isn’t working properly. So, our app to control or check our hot tub is very intermittent that we can't go on if we’re away and check our hot tub which is one of our safeguards to be on top of things.
There are so many different things going on that it makes us concerned. If they know all these ins and outs and they haven’t walked us through it, we feel leery on how we're gonna take care of our hot tub. Stuff like that should be told and explained to the owner so then we're not reading something and then experiencing different thing and not knowing if it's safe or doing the right thing. For a brand-new top of the line hot tub, it’s not being the best experience. They got the service guy telling something different that’s in the manual, too.
I called their customer service a few times and I thought they were listening, apologetic and sympathetic. They said that the support guy was really helpful and he could fix that. But these things shouldn’t be happening in the first place for a brand new $16,000 hot tub. They shouldn’t be having little glitches that are easy to fix like this water shot up and it blew blood vessels in my eye. That shouldn’t happen to an owner of a hot tub.
We had some friends that had the tub and never an issue for years. It was all great so we’re a little freaked out to have these things. And then when they wanted to charge us $90 service call within a few weeks of having the hot tub, we thought, really? It was a little surprise to charge someone when they just had this major upset. And then later the home office said it’s the travel time that’s not covered. But I think there should be a little kindness and ethics there.
Hi Shelly. You're correct, none of this should be happening with a brand new spa. We want to make sure that you're happy with the purchase of your Master Spas hot tub, so we'll have someone from our customer care team reach out to you as soon as possible to help get this situation resolved. Thank you for your patience while we get this figured out.

We got a Twilight spa by Master Spas which seemed to fit what we were looking for from the size and comfort. We looked at a few different brands and Master Spas was comparable cost-wise, but the quality is better. The guy from their little outlet store was really good, but the people who came out were only here to drop it off. Other than that, the spa has been good so far. We've used it almost daily since we got it and makes us feel more relaxed.
Hi Ahmad! It's good to know that you're getting the most use out of your Twilight spa! When you have something as relaxing as one of our hot tubs - it's hard not to use it everyday! Thank you for the review.

My wife and I got a hot tub from our local Master Spas store for a good deal because they had an overstock on them. We bought it for our chronic physical problems. I have back and neck problems and my wife has RA, so it really helps her. Our chiropractors and doctors have been telling us to get one for years. It's seated for six and has the little fountains on it. It also has the double pumps, which is always a plus. It’s great and we love it. We go to the store frequently to get chemicals for the hot tub. As a matter of fact, they said the next time I go in, I'd get 20% off.
Hi Cary! We're glad you're enjoying your Master Spas hot tub for water therapy - they really can be a miracle worker when it comes to aches and pains! We appreciate your feedback.

We saw TS 7.2 at the Cleveland home show. The salesman was very good, and we seemed very pleased with the product. The tub has gotten all the fancy jets and the dual motors on it. It's very powerful and comfortable. Although it's a little expensive, it's a high-end spa. Overall, I have a fantastic experience.
Hi Dan! We're thrilled to hear that you had a fantastic experience purchasing your spa and that you're enjoying the product! Thank you for your feedback!

We went to a weekend expo and purchased a jacuzzi from Master Spas. It was a leftover that somebody had ordered so they had such good pricing going on and we wound up with almost $5,000 off from this tub. We looked to upgrade this because of the good price. It's a therapeutic one and has a lot of jets to it. We love it. My husband has a back issue and it has been helpful. Also, the whole process was a very easy transaction. The sales team was easy to deal with and the installation guys did a good job getting the other one out.
Hi Christine! We're so happy to hear that you're enjoying one of our water therapy spas and that it's been able to help out you and your husband so much! Thank you for your feedback!

I purchased a Master Spas tub because of the value, its cost and it being a nice model. It seats 4 to 6 and has lights. Normally, the filter is supposed to go down when the jets come on but it's not staying down. I don't know if that's normal or if it's supposed to suction down where the filter doesn't pop up above the water. At any rate, I'm very happy with the quality and it helps us relax. My overall experience with Master Spas is great.
Hi Dave! We're happy to hear that your overall experience with Master Spas has been such a positive one. As for the filter, whether or not it should be floating would depend on what model you have. We have a couple different filtering systems for different models, some of which are supposed to float and some of which are not. If you could please tell me what model you have I can get that answer for you. Thank you for your feedback!

I had a hot tub before and as far as being comfortable, Master Spas' the worst one yet. My body doesn't fit in the bucket seat that has it around the neck. I'm only five-eleven and a half, and my shoulder blades hit the part that your neck’s supposed to rest up against. It's too low. And when I sit down, it's hard to stay in the seat. The buoyancy floats you around. But my wife likes it and she sits in it a lot. My previous hot tub was a deep seating, and it was deeper than most tubs. I should've been thinking about that when I bought this one. I didn’t sit in it at the show. I was in a hurry and just bought it.
Also, the scum problem is tough. It started right after the first use. I haven't called customer service about this. But I called Master Spas yesterday because I'm still waiting for the dealer to come out and replace the panels that were damaged on delivery. They said that the panels are supposed to be in Friday, and they’ll be out the following Monday to install them. I shouldn’t have bought it because I think I paid about $3,000 more than I should have. I wouldn't recommend Master Spas at all.
Hi Bruce, we're so sorry to hear that you're having issues with scum in your hot tub along with some other issues.

We bought our Master Spa from David’s Entertainment. We described what we wanted and David, the guy we got it from, pointed us to one and he suggested it over the rest. I really liked David. He was a trustworthy guy. Our Master Spa has all the typical things. It has the jets, the heaters, and the lights. The quality is superb, and we've been really enjoying it. It's very expensive, but it's been good. It was a big investment. It has made me much happier. My wife has to stand on her feet a lot all day, so she would come home and get in it at the end of the day. We have two little kids and they think it's like a big swimming pool. They want to go in it every single night. Overall, our experience has been great and very relaxing.
Hi Andy! We love hearing that you and your family are getting so much use out of your Master Spas hot tub and that the people at David's Entertainment were so helpful when it came to making the purchase. It's great to know that you're enjoying it so much. Thank you for your feedback!

I looked at a lot of hot tubs. I even had one Jacuzzi company come to the house to do a site survey and I ended up not liking their product. Then Master Spas had the best jets to pump ratio compared to others and so I chose them. I've only had the LFX 800 tub for two and a half months since the installation but it seems to be all right as far as the quality. However, one of the pumps momentarily wouldn’t come on for a little while but it started working there the next time that we got in it. It seemed to fix itself and it never came up again.
My biggest negative in this whole experience is that there’s only one dealer in my area and they aren’t worth a darn. The communication and the customer service have been one of the worst experiences that I've had with any large purchase. They made an appointment with me to have the tub delivered at the end of December. I called them the day before and there was a snowstorm coming. I asked if they normally deliver in that weather or if we need to reschedule. That’s when I found out that they don’t even have my hot tub and I've already taken time off of work. I had to take a vacation day as I’m a truck driver so it’s not like I can run home for lunch to check on it.
We then rescheduled it for the following week. I called before that and they said that the tub's not there again. I told them that I bought one that was already finished and was there at their store. They said that something happened to that so they had to order a new one for me and they never let me know. Then come to find out, the new one didn’t have the same things as it's the 2017 model and they kept telling me it did. I called the factory and they said that it’s got a different filtration and sound system in it. Basically, they did the bait and switch on me and so the hot tub that’s at my house is not the one that I bought. I just accepted it to put this thing to rest because the core of the hot tub is still the same.
Then the one that I wanted has a Bluetooth system and it has a little holster that holds the phone on the outside of the trim work. It was a real slap in the face when I asked them about that. They said that I can buy that extra. I also called them up a couple of times to ask about the water filtration, if the alkalinity normally goes up or down as I use it. I was having a really hard time reading the test strips and I could only read when it was way out of range. They told me to bring the water there and they'll test it, but I live 60 miles away. I was just asking questions and they wouldn’t give me the time of day.
I went out and bought a $300 tester and I just tested it at the house myself, so that way I don’t have to mess with that dealership anymore. I got no respect for them. And knowing that they are the only one that can do maintenance on this hot tub scares the living daylights out of me. I’m really hoping and praying that the quality of this hot tub is as good as they say it is because I never want to call for maintenance.
But the tub’s fantastic and I love it. I just jump in there and it’s very relaxing and nice. It definitely massages all the skin. As far as quality and price, I’m very happy. I would definitely suggest it to my friends, but I don’t want them to have to deal with that dealership. That would be the only reason why I would tell them to look at a different hot tub.
Hi Brian. While we're thrilled to hear that you're enjoying your spa, the experience you had with your dealer is very disappointing to hear about. We'll be sure to reach out to the dealer directly and hopefully get this resolved. Thank you for bringing this to our attention and thank you for your patience!
