My Covid Backyard project
PostedApril 28, 2021
When Covid made us homebound, we started working on the backyard. As a running coach and long distance runner it made sense to invest in a hot tub. I met Don at Capital City Hot tubs, and he introduced me to the top of the line Hot tub. Everything he told me about the Caldera was true! It is easy to maintain, great quality and comfortable! I enjoy my morning coffee in the hot tub and my late night soaks after a run!

Overall good BUT the flow control plastic thing over filter continually gets stuck
PostedApril 25, 2021
Overall we really like the tub. But there is a major defect with the design of the plastic ring the floats over the filter it gets stuck along I mean a lot. I have to check it almost daily. I found a lot of silicone in side the filter area because this was causing it to stick. Then there is a lip in side this plastic flow control is still catching on. This cause water ph to go out of balance in just 4 days with no usage of the tub during those days. Other than this we like the tub
By Customer Service Caldera Vanessa, May 18, 2021
Oh no! That is not good. I'm glad to hear you love your spa, but the weir shouldn't stick. I will email you to see how I can help.
Thank you for taking the time to share your review.
Happy Hot Tubbing!

We use it almost every day!
PostedApril 23, 2021
It is so relaxing to have your own hot tub. Knowing it is clean and well cared for, it's really a luxury!
I wish the display had an on/off switch--or even timed out after a while. Also, the test strip recommendations and the store analysis of the water chemicals are usually quite a bit off. I have probably doubled my electricity bill after getting the spa--but I still think it's worth the expense.
Thanks!

We are happy with the size and comfort of the tub. My husband made the purchase mostly for therapeutic reasons. He's in it every morning, and every evening! Doesn't disappoint.

Vanto Review
PostedApril 15, 2021
Awesome hot tub for the price. Has all the amenities you really need and none of the ones you don't. I wish the removable side panels were a bit easier to reinstall otherwise it was a great purchase with no regrets. My dealer and Caldera tell me that I'm not lining the panel properly but its obvious that there's an alignment issue even when I provided the photos. My dealer wants to charge me to come out to fix. They may not charge me if its a warranty issue. The photos should be enough to determine that but I'm not sure if I want to possibly have to pay several hundred dollars.
By Customer Service Caldera Vanessa, May 18, 2021
Thank you for taking the time to post your review. I am sorry to hear that your wonderful spa experience is impaired by the panels not lining up.
I can help get a tech out and evaluate the situation. I will email you for further assistance.
Happy Hot Tubbing!

LOVE MY HOT TUB!
PostedApril 15, 2021
This was an awesome investment. I have back issues that my hot tub is able to aid in providing relief. The 7 person hot tub allows different jets to trigger different areas. It is awesome and I definitely recommend this!

Caldera Vanto Review
PostedMarch 4, 2021
We just took delivery of our new Caldera Vanto spa and are loving it. The jets are powerful and just enough points to hit every part of your body. It also fits nicely on our back patio. Great spa for the price!

mixed experience
PostedFebruary 24, 2021
The disinfecting system on this spa is great. The jets are great per my husband. I personally like them off and to sit in the quiet and soak. The spa is easy to maintain..
My issues:
1. spa won t heat if it is within 2 degrees of the setpoint. But there is a big difference between say 101 and 99 and if I get in when it happens to be low it has a hard time getting me those 2 degrees back. Perhaps because it is open?
2. I live in San Diego where energy is priced by time of day. There is no way to program the spa using time It cleans on a 12 hour cadence that starts whenever you actually push a reset button. So to avoid energy usage after 4pm I have to get up at 2am to reset it. Then it runs cleaning cycle at 2am and 2pm. This is too basic of a cobtrol system but I didn't understand that until I bought it
3. no response from caldera to 2 or 3 online questions I asked about my spa. I am not sure how you get support.

By Customer Service Caldera Maria, February 25, 2021
Thank you for your post. I want to help. Your temperature is calibrated in plus or minus to go 2 degrees either way; for example, when you set your spa at 100 degrees, it will be either 98 or 102. It is running as it was designed. This is perfectly normal; however, I can suggest you can put our temperate at 102, which should give you 100 degrees. Our dealers in the San Diego area are excellent at answering these types of questions. Look for my email with more details.
Thank you

PostedJanuary 30, 2021
We have fallen in love with our Caldera Spa. We just finished a cold snap (-45) which lasted four days and the spa didn't skip a beat. We checked on it daily and it held its temp! We love spending anywhere from 20 minutes to a couple hours relaxing in our Caldera Spa. Specially during this pandemic, this was a fantastic investment.

So happy to hear you are loving your Caldera spa and that it has become part of your daily ritual!

Vanto
PostedNovember 24, 2020
I have now had my spa for 7 months. We absolutely love it. The ease of maintaining it, the look, the energy efficiency, all of it. I had an older model spa many years and while we enjoyed it there were many issues. The Vanto provides us all the comfort and enjoyment we like without the hassle of complicated maintenance. We purchased at an opportune time, just when COVID lockdowns were going into effect. Capital City Hot Tubs and Don & his crew was great from pre-purchase to setup. We did need a service call once and they responded timely and fixed it in a reasonable time period. We are looking forward to many years of relaxation with our spa.

BUYER BEWARE
PostedNovember 18, 2020
The first cool night we had 9/2020, just 1 month after I purchased my brand new spa 8/2020, the spa could not maintain the heat. It is now three months later. The dealer I purchased it from has still not responded. Caldera still does not respond. And I have a $7000 hot tub that cannot get over 90°. So I now have $10,000 invested between the reinforced concrete slab and the upgraded electrical and the cost of the spa in a hot tub that is set to 106 and does not go over 90 degrees. I have sent photographic evidence of the temperature with three different thermometers and the outside temperature marked. I have had no response from anyone.
By Customer Service Caldera Angelo, November 25, 2020
I am so sorry to hear that you have not had the experience you were expecting with your new spa but i am very grateful that you have reached out to us so we can assist in resolving this issue. I was able to see that you reached out to us over a month ago and one of my associates contacted you via email on 10/19/2020, but I will go ahead and reach out to you as well so we can try and get this resolved Look out for an email from me. Thank you again and have a happy holidays

Nice spa!
PostedNovember 12, 2020
I've had my spa for about 6 month now and so far I love it. I've had about 5 spa thru out my life. This is comparable to the other brands I've own. Bought it Iowa City/ Coral Ridge shop. I live almost 2 hours away and they delivered it that far. Delivery nice and easy. Only negative is they should have better diagram on line of where spa electric juntion box is. But love my spa and winter is almost here. Can't wait to be in it during snow season.Bruce

We like everthing about it, however two things i would like better,
1. be able to choose a color for the lights and have it stay that color instead of it changing all the time
2, cant get used to inline bromine levels, i find a floater is easier to use to mantian levels

Comfortable & spacious
PostedNovember 11, 2020
I purchased a few months ago after my older spa finally gave out. The Vanto is very comfortable with amazing jets& spacious seats. I really enjoy my spa time since I’ve been stuck at home; it’s a little vacation in my backyard!
