Welcome to Backyard Family Fun! This episode is with Alex Smith at Pride Pools, Spas, and Leisure Products in Savannah about why buying a spa from a trusted local dealer matters, especially compared to traveling “expo” style sales events.

Alex explains that high-pressure tactics, big “limited-time” discounts, curbside delivery, and proprietary parts can leave buyers with difficult or delayed service after the sellers leave town. He emphasizes Pride’s long experience (including past spa manufacturing), transparent, no-pressure shopping, and full delivery/setup process: coordinating site readiness, setting the spa in place, connecting power, filling, testing, and teaching operation before leaving.

They also highlight add-ons like covers, CoverMates, steps, and water-care support, plus the value of a “test soak” to confirm fit, seating, and jet therapy for wellness or relaxation.
