During my research process, I read numerous online postings advising that a nearby, trustworthy…read moredealer is the most important aspect when buying a hot tub. Although I was about to purchase a hot tub from a large, well known dealer in Corona, I decided to look at Custom Spas Direct, which has good online reviews and happens to be very close to our house. I'm glad I did. I was not familiar with the Vita spa brand that Custom Spas Direct sells. There's very little information available online. After doing some digging, I determined that Vita is a decent, mid-range spa with competitive pricing. Nothing fancy, but it's built with good components from companies like Balboa Water Group. Dealing with Custom Spas Direct has been fantastic. It's a small company and we interacted directly with Jim Galpin, the owner. Jim is a straightforward guy and he was very helpful in choosing a spa. Since I was unfamiliar with Vita, I had a lot of questions and he patiently answered all of them. He quickly responded whenever I sent him a text with a question or request. After the purchase, he was super flexible with regard to delivery, setup timing, coordinating with the electrician's schedule, etc. The delivery and setup was quick and well done. The installer did a good job answering all of my questions. We've had the spa six months and have had a couple of minor issues. One was probably due to user error on my part and the other was not. In both cases, Jim responded to my texts immediately and quickly resolved my issue, even during a holiday week. I'm so glad I purchased from a local dealer that provides such fantastic service after the sale. I'm sure a larger dealer would not have given us the same treatment. Thanks Jim! Five stars!

Very Disappointed With Paradise Pools…read more Paradise installed our pool in 2008, and because of our history with the company, I recently contacted them when I needed some decking repairs. I also initially needed a new pool pump. I called Paradise on a Saturday to request an estimate. They couldn't come out until Wednesday. Since I needed to get our pool back up and running for our granddaughter's swim lessons, I found another company that was able to replace the pump on Monday. I still needed Paradise to provide an estimate for the sinking decking, so I kept the Wednesday appointment. When their service technician, Larry, arrived, he looked at the decking and then called the office. He spoke with Wayne, who told him that I would have to pay a $175 service call fee. This fee had never been mentioned to me when I called to schedule the visit--neither verbally nor otherwise. I told Larry that I was not willing to pay a fee that had never been disclosed and asked him to leave my property. I also pointed out that the concrete around the gas line installed by Paradise was sinking. Larry told me that this was due to the soil not being properly compacted before the concrete was poured. I am extremely disappointed with how this was handled. Paradise installed our pool, and we even referred another customer to them at the time. Given that history, I expected much better customer service and communication. If there is a $175 service-call charge just to come out and provide an estimate, that should be clearly disclosed when the appointment is scheduled. Had I known about the fee beforehand, I could have made an informed decision about whether to have them come out. Unfortunately, based on this experience, I will not be using Paradise again and cannot recommend them.

Unfortunately, Anderson Pool has been the worst experience I have had with a pool company…read more I initially hired Anderson Pool to install mini pebble, a salt cell, and an autofill system. While the mini pebble itself turned out okay, we immediately began having problems with the autofill making noise and keeping us awake at night. I contacted Mike and explained that we never had this problem before their work was completed. Initially, he insisted it was not related to their installation. I eventually paid a separate plumber to inspect the issue, and I was told the noise was coming from the autofill. Mike later came out and made an adjustment. We also began experiencing issues with the salt cell. Since Anderson Pool had installed the equipment, I decided it would make sense to hire them for ongoing pool maintenance as well. Unfortunately, that created even more problems. After their pool technician changed the filter, I noticed water leaking from underneath my filter equipment. I called Laura, the office manager, because it was after hours and I did not know what I should do. I ultimately turned the pool off for the night. The following morning, I contacted Mike for guidance and was told Laura handled the service issues. When Laura called me, the conversation became extremely unpleasant. She was upset that I had contacted them regarding the problem and told me I could not keep calling them for issues. I explained that their service had left me with a leaking pool system and additional work that I did not know how to handle. I asked for the pool technician's phone number so I could communicate directly with him, and she refused to provide it. The conversation became argumentative, and I finally told her they could cancel my service and bill me for the month. Afterward, Mike told me he would personally come to my home, make sure everything was handled correctly, and supervise my pool service going forward. Based on that conversation, I believed the situation had been resolved. Two weeks later, however, nobody had returned to service my pool. I called to find out when the technician was coming back to correct the issue and maintain the pool, only to be told that my service had been canceled. I was shocked because after my conversation with Mike, I had understood that he was going to oversee the service moving forward. At the very least, I believe someone should have notified me that they had decided to discontinue service so I could immediately arrange for another company to maintain my pool. This has been an extremely frustrating experience, particularly because my previous pool company maintained my pool for approximately seven years until we moved, and I never experienced anything like this. Attached is the mess they left for me to clean. This review reflects my personal experience with Anderson Pool. Based on that experience, I would not use this company again.

They'll probably give you a song and dance about how they're moving and need to get rid of stock. Then they'll sit you throw a lengthy disingenuous PowerPoint presentation aimed at making you think their spas are really better than the name brands. It felt very similar to a time share presentation. My meeting with the sales rep was not a positive experience. I felt extremely pressured to buy right then and was "purposely" mislead by their very questionable sales tactics and half truths. Do your homework and compare "all" the options as a deal may not be a deal after all. I toned down the wording from my original review after I was contacted by the sales rep in question. I personally would NEVER do business with this company. Update. I was originally "tricked" into making an appointment by the lady answering the phone, I was told that "they were moving and had to get rid of stock at blow out prices. I was told that "I needed to get in right away". Next week might be too late. That was back in September of 2015. I quickly realized that I was suckered into a hard sell / high pressure environment and was being mislead, as was apparent by my above review. So they're still here, my review should be a big red flag of the honesty of this establishment. If they want this review to go away, they could simply move, like I was told they were and this review would disappear as it was written for their old address.

J&J Pool Service was punctual and showed up consistently, so I'll give them credit for that…read more However, almost every week it became the same conversation: I was told the pool didn't have enough chlorine and that I needed to pay extra for additional chemicals--even though I was already paying them to maintain the pool. I've owned pools for many years and have dealt with multiple pool services. This is a large pool, and at $150 per month, I was surprised to find out that only one gallon of chlorine was being provided. When I questioned why the chlorine kept disappearing, I was repeatedly told that it was because "people are peeing in the pool." That explanation got old quickly. The basic service itself was good and they were punctual, but the constant additional charges and what felt like hidden fees became frustrating. If chemicals beyond such a small amount are going to cost extra every week, I believe that should be made very clear upfront. Ultimately, I decided to cut ties and find another pool service. Good punctuality and decent service, but the unexpected additional costs made it not worth continuing for me.
