I can get the Flair with a cover lift for $6900 or the Bengal with the lift for $5900.
The Bengal has the better warranty. The lights on the Flair look like an expense waiting to happen.
Is this a good price for either of these? Does anybody own either of these? Is there another Hot Spring/
Tiger River/Limelight model that would be better for a similar price? I dont want to go any smaller. Do Hot tub dealers bargain very much on their prices?
I have never bought one!
Thanks

Where are you finding a Bengal for $5900? That's a pretty good price... I didn't get a quote for the Bengal but for the Flair, I was quoted $7700. Also, check out the HotSpring Prodigy.

That is an excellent price for the Bengal and a fair price for the Limelight. I've always felt that the Bengal offered the best "bang for the buck" of all the Watkins models. Both tubs use the same basic operating system, but are constructed slightly different. The Limelight does offer you more jet pressure, but less jet variety. The lighting features which the Limelight offers are pretty neat, but there is definitely the potential to cause you repair headaches in the future.
