Ahh-Mazing!
PostedDecember 21, 2024
"Ahh-Mazing!" Is all you will be saying after you get into the Caldera Niagara. It is very spacious and comfortable. This tub is perfect for relaxation and partying. This is our first hot tub and I've always heard how difficult they are to take care of. The Salt System coupled with the Freshwater IQ makes it incredibly easy. It basically takes care of itself. We started out with an inflatable hot tub to see if we would use one. After a few years, we finally upgraded and it was the best decision. It's easier to take care of, more energy efficient and WAY comfier!

Relax and enjoy
PostedOctober 30, 2024
We purchased our Niagara tub about 3 months ago, we love our spa. We have owned several spas over the years and this spa is by far the best, the construction, ease of water care and lights are all first rate. My wife insisted on the salt system or "I couldn't get another spa" so I relented. She was right, no chlorine smell or that feeling you get from a chlorine spa on your skin. Although this spa is not inexpensive it's quality, water care and appearance made it well worth the price.

We Will Give This Product 5 Stars!
PostedOctober 2, 2024
I love this hot tub so much! It's the fifth one I've owned, and let me tell you, the Caldera Niagara takes the cake.
Comfort: This is by far the most comfortable hot tub I’ve ever sat in. The foot ridge and the contour of the seats are a game-changer. Honestly, I get so cozy in it that I’ve fallen asleep! It’s the only hot tub that has ever done that for me.
Quality: Let’s talk about the quality—it's seriously impressive. Caldera really knows how to build a hot tub that lasts! The materials they use are top-notch, and you can tell just by looking at it. The cabinets are super durable and can handle whatever Mother Nature throws at them. Plus, the shell is solid, so you don’t have to worry about it cracking or fading over time. And I love how stylish it looks! The sleek lines and smooth curves add a little flair to my backyard, making it a focal point for all my friends and family.
Ease of Water Care: Now, let’s talk about the Freshwater IQ. Once you get it started correctly, it’s a breeze. It practically takes care of itself! Just remember, getting everything balanced before turning on the Freshwater IQ is key to this system working perfectly.
Energy Efficiency: I barely notice it on my electric bill, even during the freezing cold months here in South Dakota.
Overall, apples to apples, the Caldera Niagara is by far the best value on the market. If you’re in the market for a hot tub, do yourself a favor and check this one out!

We have contacted combined pool and spa in sioux falls and they have been good however these problems after 3 months should not be happening with a brand new spa

Thank you for bringing your spa service issue to our attention. I completely understand how frustrating it can be when a spa doesn’t operate as it should. It’s important to us that you feel supported during this time. There must be a reason why your spa went into protection mode, and I will reach out to the dealer to find a solution for you.
We genuinely want all our customers to relax and enjoy their spas, and your satisfaction is our priority.
I look forward to working with you and resolving this matter soon.

Frustrated With Service
fromGoddard, KS
Very nice Spa, but nobody can tell me what the error message means. "Heater Power Fault". Why am I getting this?
PostedJuly 12, 2024
As far as the comfort of the spa we love it! There are so many options for the jets. We can adjust everything to what suites us best. However, the spa keeps sending me an alert that shows "Heater Power Fault". My dealer has not been any help in troubleshooting this message. There is no information on the message in the Caldera manual. I have no idea what it means. I wish there was someone I could reach out to about this since my dealer is no help.
By Customer Service Caldera Vanessa, September 9, 2024

We expected better.
PostedMarch 24, 2024
So many issues with the tub that we had to figure out on our own. Tub came with a blown fuse. Circulation pump was not even connected. The light up logo doesn’t work. The salt water cartridge was missing one of the leads to plug-in. tried calling and left messages, no one has called us back

Caldera Niagara Spa
PostedMarch 1, 2024
This is our second Spa and we can’t believe the advances that have been made in spa technology. And our Caldera Niagara spa is sensational! The seating, jets, waterfall, and lighting systems are phenomenal. And the water chemistry is very simple to maintain within specs. We love it!!

fromDevon, PA
Too much work and no customer support
PostedJanuary 15, 2024
We are first time hot tub owners so we don’t have a good basis to judge but we have found calderaspas to be very frustrating, so much work and no customer service.
For the price, it has been very disappointing.
I cannot recommend and totally regret our purchase.
Please make sure you thoroughly research beforehand.

Our second Niagara
PostedNovember 23, 2023
This past summer we added a large multi layered deck to our home. It was originally going to be caped off by moving our existing Caldera Niagara of 15 years as an end piece that we could walk out to. Unfortunately time was not on our side and had some issues related to its overall infrastructure. Our Caldera Spa dealer in town worked with us and we were able to find another Niagara that we love just as much!

So far so good
PostedOctober 27, 2023
We have had the spa for 2 weeks now. Very happy with it. The neck jets aren't tall enough for tall people however. Minor point - why isn't there an app for controls for your phone? Otherwise no complaints.

This Spa is Well Worth It
PostedAugust 29, 2023
This is our first spa and we went for a higher end model and it was worth it. We've been in a lot of spas at hotels and VRBOs but nothing like this. The massage functinos are incredible. Only downsides so far is that the power occassionally needs to be reset, which often requires rebalancing of the chemicals and the remote communication function is not yet available despite the fact that we ordered half a year ago.

Great spa except for panel design
PostedAugust 14, 2023
So far we've had it for 2 months, we love the design and the seating options it came with. All the electrical components seem to work as designed and the jets all seem very strong. The only two complaints I have are the panel fastening system that attaches the front and side panels to the tub. It's seems like a horribly designed system with movable clips that easily falls out of alignment causing a risk of snapping them since there are about 9 per side an you cannot see them when reattaching the panel (by hitting it in place). Another disappointment is the interior framing is only made of standard lower grade wood pieces that have obvious imperfections causing splitting, etc. After so many years in business I would expect both of these flaws would have been engineered "out" of the design.

First Hot Tub_ Love It
PostedJune 20, 2023
The wife and i love our first hot tub. Perfect for post-workout rejuvenation or simply to relax. We use it almost every day. I wish I'd gotten it years ago. The Niagara was a great choice for us, perfect size and easy to maintain.

Not overly impressed
PostedMay 31, 2023
Pieces fall off daily when jets turn on- water is almost always cloudy, and im boosting and using clear blue- alot more issues than we're used to having with our hot tub. We just replaced our Sundance 800 with this and I hands down like my Sundance better.
Only 2 seats jets work at one time- not all seats can be going- which to me is absolutely ridiculous. It's 6-8 person hot tub so those folks should be able to enjoy the jets not just 2 people
Astetics-wise this tub is beautiful, looks great during the day & night- the colors are gorgeous but the up-keep and the constant jet covers falling off, and parts floating in the water, is enough for me to be annoyed vs relaxed each time I go in it

Money Well Spent
PostedMay 17, 2023
This was money well spent. Between my wife and I, we have neck, back, and sleep issues. This has renewed our activity levels and created a space for us to relax. We are even thinking about adding the cooling system also to utilize it year-round.

SPA has worked smoothly and met expectations really well!
PostedMay 5, 2023
Needed this spa to help recover from a back and neck injury and it has had plenty of power with the jets and variety of configurations to do that nicely. I am able to work through therapy without the need for pain killers thanks to using the spa daily. Extremely surprised how well it holds temp while in it and with cover off and in high 30s temps.

Absolutely Love Our Caldera Niagra Hot Tub
PostedFebruary 23, 2023
We've had our Niagra hot tub for a few months now and it is absolutely awesome. It's easy to care for, so comfortable and beautiful to look at. We checked out quite a few hot tub options and are thrilled with our decision to buy this hot tub. The euphoria foot jets are wonderful. The hot tub pretty much takes care of itself with minimal effort from us. Don't hesitate to buy a Caldera....

Somewhat disappointed in quality of Hot Tub and response from dealer
PostedJanuary 2, 2023
When our hot tub was installed the dealer did not have the salt system in stock. It took over a week before they installed the salt system. The tub was installed in October and we have already had two items to break. The dealer indicated the parts are in warranty but we would have to pay to have them come out and intalll the parts. As for comfort, the tub is comfortatle once you get in however there is a hump in the floor under the controls that makes it awkward to move from one side of the tub to the other side. This is a safety concern.
By Customer Service Caldera Kylie, May 5, 2023
Thank you for providing your feedback on your spa experience. I can understand the frustration of needing yo wait for your salt system to be installed.
While repairs are covered under warranty, there may be a travel fee that is up to the discretion of your dealer.
We'd be happy to look into this for you and see if there is anything we can do to support you and your dealer in ensuring that any concerns you have are addressed. I'll be emailing you shortly.
Happy Hot Tubbing!
