I waited for a little while to post my review so I would have a more objective view of my purchase. I have now owned my Wind River hot tub for six months and I must say I am thoroughly delighted that I purchased my hot tub from Wind River. It is easy to maintain, it looks good, it’s comfortable, it has a unique feature that we love (whirlpool seat) the cost to purchase and to run is more than fair, I get awesome comments from my friends and family and frankly it is one of the best purchases I have ever made. One of the most awesome features of Wind River tubs (the one my wife and I purchased) is the whirlpool seat. I can’t say enough about that feature as it is so relaxing and the recliner seats and the other seats are just as awesome. We looked for a couple months for a hot tub before we made our selection and that was the same day we saw the Wind River hot tub. It was different, this was the only one with the whirlpool seat we saw out of literally over a hundred. I was also impressed with it being a local company (created, built and sold) which means the money more or less stays in our community and it’s developed for our Colorado environment to help it last longer than many of the tubs mass produced from out of state. They put more into their product than the national chains. That’s frankly awesome in my opinion. But on top of that is everything I looked at about Wind River was positive. They have NO bad reviews. You also have people who have had one Wind River, come back and buy a second one. (when they have moved or replaced their old one after twenty plus years) That’s fantastic. They go a step above everyone else in my opinion. The owner is really a nice guy and he’ll try his best to fit you into what you like and need. Take it from me, (I’m one of the biggest skeptics you’d ever meet) if you are considering a hot tub, go to Wind River, you’ll be glad you did. They make a quality product and they will go out of their way to make sure your happy. I can’t say enough about how happy we are regarding our purchase.
