We moved to Bowmanville in 2009 to a beautiful private forested 6 acre property. Our house already had a sun room with sliding doors, but no deck yet. It was the perfect location for a hot tub, surrounded by trees. We are also naturists, and the privacy of our new home allowing us to be nude in our out was the primary reason we choose to move from the city. We never had a hot tub before, but being naturists, having our own hot tub was important. We also our running a part time naturist bed and breakfast (Angel Eyes Naturist Bed and Breakfast at bnude.ca) from our home and the hot tub was the perfect addition for our guests. We visited Comfort Shoppe and spoke with Tina and she was very helpful as we made our decision. We loved the idea of choosing a local business and that was one factor in our decision. We choose a model with a built in radio, underwater lights and waterfall. On one side we can recline down, and the other 3 corners have seats of different depths. This allows us to move around the hot tub to have it massage in different ways. I particularly like bed reclining side, as it's great to massage legs after a workout. Myself, I like to run just the jets and relax on a dark star filled night, while my wife and children like the radio and lights. Installing was easy. We hired someone to install a concrete pad for the hot tub. Once it was completed, Comfort Shoppe delivered our new tub. The man installing the pad was surprised at how light the hot tub was as we placed it on the pad. He was also the person who built our deck that surrounds the hot tub. We are very happy with our finished design, and the hot tub, deck, sun room, surrounding forest are all so beautiful. Overall, we're very happy with our purchase and the hot tub and jets work beautifully. And it's perfect in all seasons - especially nice in fall and winter. We did have one problem with the radio in the spring this year. After the winter, the radio just didn't work anymore. We gave Comfort Shoppe a call and they quickly sent someone over to take a look. The trouble was the transformer. They removed the old one and ordered a new one for us. It took a couple weeks for the new one to arrive, and they were quick and friendly to install it and get our radio working again all at no charge to us. We have exercise equipment in the sun room and I love being able to have a workout for a couple hours and then walk outside and relax in the hot tub as my reward for exercising. I've lost 30 lbs in the past 2 years with this routine. Requiring myself to exercise before using the hot tub is a great motivating factor. And having all this in my own home allows me to exercise and use the hot tub all nude -- which is so much better than driving 30 minutes to a fitness club and needing to exercise while wearing clothes. We will use Comfort Shoppe again. We are in the process now of purchasing a new gas furnace from them and spoke with Glenn, the Comfort Shoppe owner, for our furnace purchase. Feel lucky in our new home, as a natural gas main is being installed right now along our road. The previous owners, living here for 30 - 40 years, never had natural gas. And we are here for just 4 years and the natural gas main is coming now -- thanks to the new garbage incinerator coming to nearby Courtice. We should be able to save a lot of money using a natural gas furnace to replace our older electric furnace. The electric one was too expensive to run and we never used it -- instead suffering through our first cold winter burning just wood in our fireplace. Our second winter we used a pellet stove, which works well, but is messy to clean. With the low prices of natural gas now, we're very happy to soon have a gas furnace as we create our little piece of paradise here. We really love our move to Bowmanville, friendly people and see our home having so much potential. We highly recommend Comfort Shoppe for their quality products and service and looking after us for any questions or problems we may have long after the sale is completed.
