Terrible Buying Experience
PostedJanuary 6, 2017
My wife and I just purchased our spa. So far we really like it, however the buying experience has been aweful! Your videos show ease of water maintenance, but our spa came without Frog system. The manual comes with an addendum telling you that it should be included. Dealer sends box of chemicals and tells us this is better. If you want the Frog system we'll sell it to you, but it's more expensive and it smells. So we don't know what we are supposed to be doing.

Wow, I am sorry to hear about your spa buying experience. I will contact you and make sure you have all your spa questions answered. Thank you for choosing Caldera Spas. I look forward in working with you soon.

My Kauai
PostedNovember 7, 2016
I have owned it for less than a week and totally love it. I previously had a Jacuzzi Spa that was 17 years old and replaced it wit the Caldera Kauai, so far the best move I have made in a long time. I look forward to many great years of use.

Caldera Kauai
PostedSeptember 11, 2016
I have a 2003 Kauai and I love it. The new ones are beautiful, but my older baby is wonderful. The quality keeps it timeless, and the ease of care is matchless. Would not trade my Kauai for a different brand for the world. Thanks Caldera---quality is NOT a thing of the past!

I suppose it's just because we're new to it but it doesn't seem like water quality should be such a problem. The jets are "surging" on occasion which concerns me.

Kauai tub
PostedAugust 25, 2016
I absolutely love the size of the 3 person Kauai. I also love how easy it is to get in and out. However, for the price paid, I would have expected a low speed and high speed for the jets as well as the waterfall.
In such a small tub, the high speed does generate significant noise.

Hot tub for health & happiness
PostedAugust 9, 2016
The hot tub has been a good addition to our life from a health & leisure perspective.
The tub however has had its flaws: cracked side panel, unglued jet nozzles. Our tub was delivered with one of the jet nozzles detached. Since they reglued it, it has detached 2 more times, as well as 2 other pieces. This is an inconvenience, but we have continued to enjoy our hot tub time.
By Customer Service Caldera Vanessa, August 17, 2016

Perfect spa for two
PostedAugust 8, 2016
The only thing I would change is the depth of this spa. Another 6" would be nice. My wife and I love the size and treating different areas of the body by switching seats. I love the maintenance being so easy. Small enough to fit Ina corner of the patio, large enough to really relax in.

Mostly love our hot tub
PostedJuly 20, 2016
We have been using our Kauai hot tub for several months now and love the configuration and variety of jets. What we haven't found user friendly is the ease of water care. Our water has not been clear the majority of the time since we've started using the Kauai although we constantly adjust the chemicals as recommended and use the Frog system. Having owned two previous hot tubs, we find maintenance for this one to be the most difficult of any we have owned.

Excellent Hot Tub
PostedJuly 11, 2016
The Kauai was our second tub. Outstanding! The Frog system makes things much easier than floating or hand distribution of chemicals. Had an early issue with cover quality, but that was resolved immediately.

My KAUAI spa is comfortable and relaxing my family enjoys using the spa. The lights at night are so cool. The jets are relaxing. I have a bad back and use all most every day. My company also enjoys my KAUAI spa. Very attractive it's a big hit with my grandkids. I would definitely recommend the Caldera Spa to everybody.

Disappointed with a recurring problem
PostedJuly 7, 2016
We bought this spa about a year ago and we were very pleased with it until it was time to change the water. Every time we drain the water out, it gets an airlock. This requires an expensive visit from our spa service man to get the airlock out. The wood side panel covering the motor is not easy to get on and off.
This is our 4th spa that we have owned and the first spa that has had this problem. I would not recommend this spa unless you are very handy at getting the wooden side panels off to release the airlock.

Thank you for your review. While every spa is different we do our best to communicate the operational and maintenance needs for all of the spas we manufacture. Some of our models do require purging the air from the lines at start up.
Draining and refilling can take some getting used to, perhaps with the dealers help they can show you how to remove the equipment compartment door. Customer Service is also available if you should have any additional questions or concerns. We can be reached at 800-669-1881 ext. 8432.

Heavenly Kauai
PostedJuly 7, 2016
This spa is wonderful. Great for arthritis stiffness, skin, and relaxation for stress…….especially sitting and looking up at stars at night. Am thinking that's it's not only a luxury but a necessity in today's fast paced world.
Perfect size for three and low maintenance.
Dealer and installer at Clearwater Spas in delaware are a cut above.

Really enjoyed the spa during the Michigan winter months. Heavenly when snow is everywhere.
PostedJuly 6, 2016
Placed the spa in an outdoor covered patio, so no snow to clear off the cover, but the cold fresh air was an amazing counterpoint to the bubbling hot water jets and light show. Truly a unique and wonderful experience.

PostedJuly 4, 2016
I live in Maine & purchased this Hot tub for my outside deck. Love, Love, Love, the size.. perfect for 2 for relaxing...adding a 3rd makes it comfortable for chatting... It has been through some very cold, snowy winters. I have only needed to replace the cover once, due to a branch piercing it and had a minor electrical circuit issue. Easy to maintain.
