Never had I been in a hot tub before but at the age of 60 after an auto accident that left both my husband and I with pain we were told we would have to live with and find ways to ease them and make them bareable, it was suggested that we try a hot tub for relef so we did. With the help of Don Adams at Clearwater Spas we were able to get the best choice hot tub to meet our need from neck to lower back and even my feet, and calf’s from from diabetes and hands from corporal tunnel. On those bad nights that my husband can’t sleep because of pain, he steps into the hot tub and enjoys the feeling of utopia in the quiet night and feels relef and gets a good nights sleep. We can’t always get to our chiropractor for therapy, but it’s nice to know you can get relef right in the privacy of your own back yard with out an appointment. Choosing the right hot tub with the right jets in the places you most need them is important when shopping if you want to get the full benefits of your new hot tub. Don Adams was very helpful in helping us with our choice. We love our Niagra hot tub !
Response from Caldera SpasBy Chelsea, Customer Service, July 30, 2018
I am so happy your new hot tub has brought you and your husband pain relief. Buying the right spa for you, and testing different models to find the perfect fit, can make a world of difference and ensure you have the exact massage you need sitting right at home. The Niagara is a fantastic model, and I hope you continue to enjoy for many years to come.
Happy hot tubbing!

We use our spa almost daily year round. Even when it was below zero.
I have 5 herniated discs in my back and this spa has all the jets in the right spots and then some. We rotate from seat to seat since each seat is designed to work on specific areas of the body.
Best purchase we ever made. Haven’t had to see a chiropractor since we purchased. :-)

I took delivery December 1, 2017....and it was the best decision ever! I have been in it nearly every morning since then. (below zero wind chills, blizzards and a vacation are the only things that prevent using it!)
Not only does it make me feel great, it's a great way to start every morning. I'm usually in in before daylight.
Maintenance has been easier than I imagined.
I have recommended it to anyone that is thinking about a hot tub. Thanks for making such a great product

I use my spa daily as a way to begin & end the day. It's not uncommon to find me using the spa morning & night. I love the way I feel refreshed every time. Our spa is my kids favorite family activity! The spa is my husbands favorite way to unwind and relieve the aches of a long day at work. When I have 20 min of free time, you'll find me in the spa.

I wanted to wait to review until we had our Niagara through one water change cycle (about 4 months).
Buying. Our experience was OUTSTANDING from our Caldera dealer. Our Sales Rep was very knowledgeable, personable and professional. He asked the right questions and made spot on recommendations as to which tub would fit our active lifestyle. He ensured that we went tested the tubs we were looking at. He came by the house for a pre inspection to ensure the spa would work at our location. After delivery, he came by to go over all the features and fill us in on chemistry which he was also knowledgeable about. As a side note, we did our due diligence and went to competitors to compare and sadly, they seemed not to care if they go our business or not. Their loss!
The Niagara itself. We are very active and at middle age. After a 10 mile hike or 5 mile run, let me tell you what appears to be at first a very frivolous purchase and buyers remorse quickly goes away when you step in the tub. We chose the Niagara as the lounger chair was not our style. We liked the seating arrangement and jet configuration. While it says it seats 7, 4 is comfortable. And they get decent seats. They are not on a hump with just one jet in the small of the back. Anyway, Tub Time is therapeutic on tired muscles and bones. We even sleep better after a bit of tub time.
The functionslike the diverters are easy to use. The screen panel is easy to navigate. Couple of buttons and the jets are on and so are the lights if you so choose. You set the temp and it’s done. The outside “butterfly” logo, when the right wing is orange, you know at a glance you are within 2 degrees of target. The Niagara is easy to get in and out of. Make sure you take notice when you wet test.
Maintenance. Very easy. I do a spot check couple times a week. A quick peek under the cover only takes a few seconds. Mostly checking for clarity. I test once a week with test strips and I found I would have to make an adjustment, maybe every two weeks or so. YMMV depending on your water. I’ve only topped off the tub twice in four months. Not bad! Once a month I would rinse the cover off and apply a coating of Aero 303 to protect it and clean the pleated filter. I would change Bromine about 5-6 weeks or whenever it sounds like salt shaker. Again, YMMV. The mineral cartridge, when I do a water change. The water change itself, takes less than 1.5 hours. That includes sponging out the last bits of water at bottom. Get yourself a 1/4 HP pump off the giant online shopping website. If you want, even stick a sprinkler to other end and water your lawn while draining. Again, easy. Refill, make chemical adjustments as needed and you are off and running after it gets up to temp.
Overall, we couldn’t be more pleased. From buying experience to maintenance to ease of use. Any buyers remorse quickly goes away when you step into it after a long day of work or activity or any occasion. If you have the budget and space, go for it. You won’t regret it.

This is an amazing hot tub. I was concerned about a hot tub not attached to the pool. I have been pleasantly surprised at how clean it stays, with very little chemicals.
However, I moved into this house and can't figure out how to get the jets exactly right. The manual left behind is lame ... can someone point me to where I can find a more detailed user manual. Thanks, Karen

The Niagra is the first hot tub that we've ever owned! We enjoy it so much and use it most every day! Sometimes even twice a day! I must say though it takes a little time to learn all of the controls but the owner's manual has photos that display exactly which each one does. Some control air and some control water volume at each station. Needs to be that way because everyone is different and everyone likes to adjust their station to their particular liking. Glad we settled on a Caldera spa! We trust this hot tub will last many years!

We did so much research before purchasing our Caldera Spa, and I must say, we made the right decision by purchasing this spa. We absolutely love it. It has so much pressure (which you can easily dial up or down) and so many jets. I love all the different seats in the spa and I'm so glad we didn't settle for a cheaper brand, because you get what you pay for. We had a spa at our old home (it was not a Caldera and it came free with the purchase of that home) and we thought it was nice UNTIL we purchased our Caldera spa. We didn't know how much difference there was between different brands. I will definitely recommend this spa. If you're in the market, you should try to see one in person at a showroom to feel the pressure. That's what we did.

I've had my Niagara spa for two years and it never fails to provide the relaxation I was looking for. I love to use is right after the kids leave for school, and before I start work. The amazing neck jets help ease the kinks in my neck from hours sitting at a computer! When we use it at night, the LEDs provide just the right amount of light to easily get in and out in the dark. I will admit, it took me a while to figure out the chemicals, but now that I have, taking care of the spa is easy and requires almost no time. I have recommended this spa to friends and family. My daughter is heading off to college and she told me one of the things she will miss is having daily access to such a great spa! It should keep her coming home on breaks for years to come!

The sales people were honest about the improvements Caldera has made. Design of tub is comfortable for all 7 people where you feel like you have your own area in any spot. Frog system is great and 24 hour pump makes maintenance good. Had some issues with drain, but purchased a sub pump and sped up the process. We have 3 teens and between their friends and us, the tub has been great. Easy to maintain. Higher price but we've got everything we paid for.

This is the first spa we have owned but we researched for months before making a decision. We had heard stories of how much time it took to maintain spas. This is the perfect spa for four or more people and the time and expense to maintain have been minimal. We are fortunate enough to live in an area where there is little ambient lighting and just sitting in the spa and looking up at the stars is a lot of the fun. The jet and lighting options make this so much better than a big box store spas. Our retailer was excellent in the installation and has been very helpful ongoing. Don't think we could have asked for more.

As this is our first hot tub, it was difficult to set certain expectations as we had no history other than a few visits to ski resorts, etc.
The Niagra is the perfect size for our family and friends. The various seating profiles allow us to "rotate" periodically which enables amazing therapeutics.
The pumps are quiet, jet force perfect (and adjustable) and the seats are comfortable.

When we decided to do away with our above ground pool after many years, we wondered what to do with our back yard. The decision was to build a little slice of paradise for my wife and me with a deck specially built to accommodate a new Caldera Spa. Cold weather, warm weather, no matter, we enjoy our spa year round. And since we're starting to get older, it couldn't be better for those aches and pains. Best purchase ever!

I always go with the best so I was hesitant to make this purchase without any prior ownership of a Caldera. Far better than the top brands I have owned in the past. Safer due to lower amp electrical design, more efficient due to less pumps, able to focus pumps on specific areas through diverters, better therapy as jets are the latest design and technology, easier to maintain due to the single filter and built in cartridge system, stylish exterior, ease of lift system much more enjoyable, and customer service to support any issues that always seem to arise.

I have owned a Niagara since 2004. Just upgraded to a 2017 model. The Caldera spas are the best spas I have ever seen. Super easy to use. I love the upgraded model I just purchased. The sound system makes it so nice to be in the spa. I have known Jim since 2003. Very dependable and easy to work with. I am so happy I have a quality spa store to purchase supplies.
