Help with buying a spa cover

[kmill99]

Hi Everyone!

I have been struggling to replace a long worn out and water-logged spa cover.

I'm wondering if anyone has any useful information/ suggestions.

Most of all, I'd LOVE a name of a reputable and affordable company.

I live in the Cleveland area, so snow and cold weather is a factor, as is the size of the hot tub, as it's a Sundance Maxxus, about 110 inches by 92 inches, I believe. (It's big, and that will likely by a custom building issue).

I've read that Beyond Nice might be a quality option.

The original cover that came with this in 2004 was trash, and went bad in like 2-3 years. I bought a replacement after that that lasted a decade before it started losing quality. But that company went out of business sadly.

As I've researched, it seems the recommended companies you see when looking online have rigged the system, as when I research into them I see issues, lots of complaints of quality, errors warranty refusals, etc... (The Cover Guy, Spa-Mart, MySpaCover, etc).

I was getting frustrated, and then thought of all the amazing advice about EVERYTHING I've read in these forums, and figured what the heck. Disboarders are an untapped resource I need to try.

Thanks in advance for any help!
Ken

we have a smartop spa cover which i highly recommend. we get snow and low temps in our area and it's been great (holds up so much better than a traditional cover). they are not inexpensive but they last-and are custom to your tub. if you go to the website you have the option of measuring yourself and ordering or using one of their authorized dealers in your area-i recommend using a dealer b/c that way THEY measure and if there's a glitch they have to deal with it.
