Just had a very frustrating experience. Ordered incorrect part. Went back and forth over e-mail. Finally decided to throw out the parts vice paying for return postage and take a 15% restock fee. Hottuboutpost did make a reasonable offer to exchange the parts. read more

Ordered 8 days ago and none of my items have been shipped and no responses to my requests. Funny thing is after I posted this they reached out immediatly on yelp to ask for order #. Before I could respond the canceled my order instead of trying to ship something they sold. read more

I ordered a pump from Pool Spa Outpost. From what I can tell it's the same as Hot Tub Outpost (from the top of the web page: "Welcome to Pool Spa Outpost!-service@hottuboutpost.com"), so I believe this is a fair review of both/either. I ordered a pump ten days ago. Received a confirmation (with order number) right away, but no shipping/tracking info. Still no sign of the pump and no indication it is on the way. Repeated emails and VM's have gone unanswered. Can't find a way to cancel the order, gonna have to ask my credit card company to cancel the payment. From my experience this is sure sign of company going out of business. read more

I talked with somebody on the phone last week and he said he will check if the order will fit my hot tub with somebody from parts no updates. Then I call Monday and I asked the somebody if this part will work with my hot tub. That person said there is no way he can verify if the part will fit. Then I asked him to ship the item, and he said it will ship the item. I'm checking today still no update in regards to the shipping of the item. I called today on 2 different department nobody picks up the phone. It is very unprofessional how you guys are dealing with orders. I know is not an expensive item, but you guys still should do better. This was an urgent matter to fix the hot tub now who knows when I will even get the part or if it was even shipped. read more

Absolutely no customer service. Took 4 days, several emails and quite a few on-line messages to get them to respond. My shipment was sent back by the USPS, appears they can't get my address right. Still waiting, been over 3 weeks and still no parts or refund. 24/7 Customer Service is a joke. read more

Ordered replacement pillows for my Marquis Spa. In fewer than 2 years, all 3 pillows have developed several blisters that are about to pop open. I wrote to Hot Tub Outpost telling them that the pillows are clearly defective and asking about replacements. Their response: "Spa Pillows are not warranted by the manufacturer and consequently by Hot Tub Outpost in any way as they are subject to chemical exposure and wear. Maintaining water chemistry can prolong pillow life." My reaction: Of course they are subject to chemical exposure and wear! A product to be be used in a hot tub, SHOULD BE DESIGNED TO REASONABLY WITHSTAND CHEMICAL EXPOSURE AND WEAR!! Regardless, they should last more than 2 years and are therefore defective and should be replaced. If Hot Tub Outpost can't stand behind the products they offer, they should not offer them in my opinion. read more

We purchased a hot tub motor from Hot Tub Outpost. At the beginning things seemed not right, the Federal Express tracking was canceled. I sent an email and a message on the website . An answer and resolution was provided quickly. The motor has been received. read more

I saw some mixed reviews online for Hot Tub Outpost when needing to order a part so I called the number on the website. The prompt directed me to the parts department and I was able to quickly reach Tim. He reported the part I wanted was available so I went ahead and ordered it online. It cost a little less than some other sites and arrived two days later and worked perfectly. Will be using them again for sure. read more

This place will sell you wrong filters and then gaslight you telling you that they sold you the right ones. Terrible customer service. read more

Hot Tub Outpost - Here is the example demonstrates that these are not the same - Hot Tub & Pool Near Me - Lakeway, Texas

I placed an order for Filbur FC-177, which was advertised as available on their website. They just canceled the order. Before placing the order, I tried calling several times and sent an email that was replied to by Tim with a link to the item as available. I received an email that was discontinued, but I called Filbur and verified it's not. Poor customer service and false advertising. read more

Items are not stocked directly. Google results show "in stock" at this business. Business claims it can't control that (of course it can, Google doesn't just make things up under your business name) No apology for delayed items. Nasty customer service who hung up on me. read more

I ordered new tubing from them and it arrived covered in an oily film and sticky stuff all over it. It looked like it was in the back of a service truck and they decided to box it up read more

Amazing service on a hard to find part. Total was under $50. My local dealer said the part was not available and I'd have to replace the whole pump assembly for $750. They were very detailed in asking the right questions. You won't go wrong here. read more

Simple, quick. and they delivered exactly what I ordered. I needed new pillows for my hot tub and decided to try Hot Tub Outpost. I went online and quickly found the model pillow I needed. The prices seemed to be aligned with many other online sites. I did pay for the expedited shipping. Everything arrived as described and in good quality. I would purchase parts from here again. read more

I accidently ordered the wrong pump for my hot tub. Even though they do not take returns on this item I was able to tell them what happened. They took the pump back and after they examined it to make sure it had not been installed, they gave me a full refund and I ordered the correct pump. They are easy to work with, I would highly recommend. read more

Five stars to Tim and Brandi and the crew at Hot Tub Outpost for going above and beyond to help us get "Lance" up and running again. ("Lance" is our 2005 Dynasty Excalibur Lancelot 3000 spa.) They have been so helpful in recommending parts and shipping is lightning fast! read more

At first, I was upset with getting no response, but Tim called me and is working with me on getting my spa fixed. Unfortunately, I can't get anyone out to help me in my area, so I am working on replacing things by myself. Tim is doing what he can to provide resources to me to make sure I get the right things I need. My opinion totally flipped here and I look forward to Tim's help moving forward. read more

I needed parts for my hot tub. The old guy who does my spa repair recommended Hot Tub Outpost! I asked him about eBay or Amazon for parts? He said NOPE! " You might be buying somebody's junk on them sights." " Go with Hot Tub Outpost. They won't steer you wrong." When I called...a human being answered! Her name was Brenda! In Austin Texas! She was kind! She was polite! (it gets better) She had all the parts I needed in a big warehouse...right there. I didn't have to call China! She made sure the Balboa pack that I needed was the right one for my tub and then shipped it out. Come On! That's the way it's supposed to be done! I'm a happy pappy in a working hot tub! read more

Had to replace the overlay on my old Adirondack tub. Thank God HTP had the perfect part and made it like new again at a great price!! I can even set the temperature again. Thank you! read more

I should have looked at the reviews before ordering here. Back ordered forever, no updates for weeks, then a bogus substitute offer. After researching, which I should have done beforehand, I found the same products for half the price. Lesson learned. Update: the filter they sent wasn't the right one. Looked nothing like the one I ordered, so YES, I stand by my one star review. read more

I sent Eric a picture of t the part I needed and he sent me back an e-mail with a link to the part that I needed within a couple of hours

Less than ideal experience but this is such a nich market. We ordered a part, it was the wrong part and it took about 4 weeks to get the partial refund. It turns out they do not re-imburse any shipping (which I understand) but they pull 15% from the cost of the item as a "restocking fee" which I also get but the customer is left then to pay for double shipping on returns. I'll find another supplier that has better shipping options. This vendor is less than ideal, the transaction was super, super slow and the communications were incomplete. Would not recommend. read more

I do not recommend this outpost. The pillow I ordered was not described correctly, it clearly showed the attachment holes the correct distance apart, but they turned out to be an inch off! The return cost me 15% restocking fee, plus I had to pay the shipping. Turned out to be an expensive choice for the wrong item! read more

I've been without my hot tub for about a year. The circuit board would fry a relay. The previous two circuit boards fried the same relay. The prior replacement circuit board wouldn't turn on the heater, wouldn't turn on one of the motors, and after 30 minutes of work and checking connections, wouldn't respond to any of the hot tub's controls. It was "dead on arrival" and I didn't know until I tried to install it. I was considering dumping the hot tub. I did get my money back from the prior supplier. I decided to give it one more try. I purchased the circuit board from a new (to me) untried supplier, Hot Tub Outpost. On inspection prior to install, I found some carbon in a plastic connector to one of the motors. I've worked with electricity, but I'm not an electrician. Still, following that dirty wire connection, it led to the relay that's been getting fried, consistently. I cut and removed the quick connector and hard wired the motor. No excuse for the previous board, seems nothing on it worked. But Hot Tub Outpost's board did! I had all the wires color taped, some double taped for identity, and mapped on paper. Hot Tub Outpost's board physically fit perfectly. All the wires were properly identified and connected. I took my time, triple inspected it, and topped off the old water. I said "Here it goes!", and hit the 50 amp breaker on the house. It worked the first time! Returning to the hot tub, it was running on slow speed. I hit the control panel and it went to high speed. I checked the controls. They all worked. I left it on high speed "full boil" as I call it, for ~15 minutes. It's winter. The water started at 45°. The water tube around the heater was warmer, and after ~15 minutes, the water temp was up to 46°! Success!!! I drained it, refilled it with fresh water, and it heated to 102° overnight. It's been a few days, but it's still running like new. Flawlessly. BTW, the hot tub is a 2003 Marquis Model 530 CARBIN/WOOD. Getting hard to find parts with a 20 year old hot tub. Hot Tub Outpost's wherehouse had to order a new one, hence the delays. Not an issue for me with a 20 year old hot tub. They kept me informed. Last time I asked, it was enroute and showed up before they answered me. Respectful, courteous service and above all, high quality parts. I'll be back! Thank you!! read more

No idea why there are bad reviews on here (most good ones are hidden) but we have had nothing but great service from this company. They ship to Canada (received items in 3 days!). We weren't sure which Artesian jets to order - they looked up parts for us and everything fit perfectly. Ordered pillows the following month - great prices and selection and super helpful answering all our emails. read more

STAY AWAY!! they sent the wrong part. After I informed them of this, then they wanted pictures (which I sent documenting the wrong part). Then they called to say they don't have the part I ordered. Then they emailed me telling they would send a return mailing label and i could mail the wrong item back--which i will ( why would i keep the wrong clip for my hot tub cover that doesn't fit???) I just asked them to credit my credit card. They said they would AFTER they receive the part back. You mean the wrong part that you sent me? You want it back BEFORE you credit my card back for something I didn't order. SMH. No such thing as customer service anymore. I should have looked at yelp reviews.All this for just for $32. read more

Worst customer service ever never deal with them again,sent wrong part then wants a restocking fee to return, seriously what a joke you people are. read more

Ordered parts for a 2008 Sundance hot tub on Aug. 28, and had them in my hand less than a week later (they shipped out Aug. 30). They seem to have a good inventory, as I'd tried another vendor of spa parts, who did not have the parts in stock, and had no information on when they would. So appreciate this company! read more

Found you on the internet. Best pricing for jacuzzi pump I needed. Free and quick shipping. Item arrived with adequate packing and undamaged. Thank you for s great experience. I live in California, took a chance from good reviews and experience was better than expected. read more

After having read many reviews, I sent an email to check on the three items I wanted for my 10 yr. old hot tub. The response from parts received back with the hour confirmed that all three items were in stock (only 2 left of one item). I entered the order the same day 10/07/22. I received all three items today 10/14/22 via U.S. Mail. All three items are OEM parts and exactly what I ordered. I look forward to using Hot Tub Outpost in the future. read more

ordered 4 filters 21 days ago. Nothing yet, not even an acknowledgement of the order delay. Credit card was charged next day. 8 days ago sent an email. NO REPLY 5 days ago left a voice message. NO REPLY NO customer service. I will cancel order through my credit company this week. Not worth doing business with if they can't bother to service customers. read more

do not use this site. i bought an item for $15 and returned it within the 30 day period, i understood there woud be a 15% restocking fee. the only credited me $7 and took out over $11 and i paid all the shipping fees. what a rip off. read more

Locations are all bogus. Waste of my time. If you don't have brick and mortar don't pretend you do. Never answer any calls and have awful service read more

To their credit they called immediately to say they were substituting a part (spa filters) in"accommodation", bc they erroneously advertised a product they don't have. After adding $12 of product to reach free shipping, I received notification they were canceling the order. Making matters worse, I called no fewer than 4x early during their business day and sent an email. No response to any as if screened. Not the best business practice. Bait -switch. I ordered from elsewhere at Less cost. The 2nd star was bc they initially called to say they'd honor price with a substitution. The outcome remains the same. Not good. read more

Hot Tub Outpost is amazing. They worked with me for hours to make sure I got the right $9.00 part! Who does this in today's world...... I don't know why anyone would ever use any other company for Hot Tub parts. Karen C read more

Hot Tub Outpost is probably the best company I have ever dealt with over the internet. They responded to all my e mails in a timely fashion even during this Covid Crisis. They answered all my questions and reassured me that everything would be done as I wished. They even doubled checked to ensure that the dimensions I sent in would in fact fit my Hot Tub. I received my Hot Cover and it was PERFECT better than expected and fit like a glove. I will sum up this company as follows Professional Reliable Courteous People you can TRUST Great prices Great service Look No Further, I've done the research... just buy what you need and be at Peace...your're in Great hands. Bravo Hot Tub Outpost!!!!!!!!! Mike B read more
