BUYER BEWARE: TRAVELING HOT TUB & SWIM SPA EXPO SHOWS
Why You Should Skip the Traveling Hot Tub Expo
Hot tub and swim spa expos often market themselves as “national events” implying the presence of major manufacturers. However, this couldn’t be further from the truth. These expos are hastily organized, staffed by high-pressure sales teams who vanish as soon as the event concludes, leaving no trace behind.
Don't Be Duped at the Traveling Expo
You won’t find quality brands like Caldera and American Whirlpool, or Bob’s Intowne Spas at these pop-up expos. In regard to home shows, we only participate in established, reputable home shows in our service area.
Think Twice Before Investing Thousands
You need to make your decision in peace. We suggest you even schedule a consultation in your own backyardbefore you take delivery. That’s an offer we can provide as local company that you cannot get from a hired gun at an expo who will disappear after the event.
Private Test Soaks On Your Terms
If a traveling show did have a spa filled with water for testing, you might hesitate to jump in with a crowd watching. Who wants that? At Bob’s Intowne Spas we offer the chance for a test soak before your purchase. Whether it’s a soak in a hot tub or a swim spa, these tests let you feel the jets, check water depth, and ensure the seating suits you in privacy.
Don’t Fall for “Today Only” Discounts
The “50 percent off” expo price often mirrors their regular rate. In fact, expo prices can even surpass the standard ones, serving to offset the high booth and expense costs borne by sellers onto you.
Local Support Matters
When the expo leaves town, so does your support. No local showroom. No service. No help. When you buy locally, you’re investing in a team that’s here for you long after delivery. Secure local and certified support when purchasing a hot tub or swim spa.
