I have not received the spa filters and there was no communication from the delivery company fed ex for me to be able to arrange delivery. This is very inconvenient as I work full time

We're sorry to hear about your experience with the delivery of your spa filters. As we rely on FedEx for shipping and delivery updates, we unfortunately have no control over their communication. However, a member of our team will be in touch shortly to assist with arranging re-delivery of your order.
Many thanks, The Catalina Team

Great service with quick responses. Nothing was too much trouble when I rang to check if I was ordering the correct item. I was able to WhatsApp a picture and a link came back within minutes. Even able to help advise when I was having trouble installing.

Not super helpful on old models

Carry spares, but if you email asking questions will either not respond or just send generic links to 'what they have'.

Not Great.

The product was good when it eventually turned up but getting hold of it was something else.
Initially you forgot about our order until I chased it.I was then told it would be dispatched the next day.I was then told the product was discoloured and if I didn't want it you had nothing else in stock.
On deciding to proceed I was told it would be sent to me the next day.It wasn't.I then chased again and was told that the person I had been dealing with was on the sick and had failed to dispatch it or ask someone else to do so .
I eventually received it and it seems a good product but the customer service was woeful.I wouldn't use your company again.

Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback. We deeply apologise for the experience you had with us, and we completely understand your frustration.

We are a small family business and unfortunately, due to an unexpected staff sickness, in this instance we faced what can only be described as the ‘perfect storm’, leading to your order slipping through the system. This is not the standard of service we strive to deliver, and we are truly sorry that we let you down on this occasion. We have put in place added procedures that should prevent this happening again.

We value your business and would love the opportunity to make this right. If you would be willing to give us another chance, please reach out to us via email at sales@catalinaspas.co.uk.

Again, we sincerely apologise for the inconvenience caused and appreciate your understanding.

Walnut wood cabinet surrounding the…

Walnut wood cabinet surrounding the swim spa is not fit for purpose . Well maintained twice a year ,within the guarantee with excellent protective oils and preserver ,Catalina spa company did not want to know .Just read the other 1 star review having the same cabinet problem . Have been speaking to them this morning to want to purchase a new casing in any fabric wood/ plastic anything and I am not hopeful that they can help ---interested in sales only??? ,will write another review if I get a replacement casing as the one purchased they provided it appears the customer is to blame ,so we all cannot maintain the faulty? wood casing provided in the UK ? .
IN REPLY TO CATALINA SPAS Cuprinol ultimate garden furniture oil spray clear color for hardwood garden wood used and Cuprinol long lasting stained with weather and water protection this process was done every 6 months photos sent .CATALINA SPAS ALSO DID NOT INFORM THEIR CUSTOMER THAT IN 2016 THE 10 YEAR WARRANTY WITH THE SWIM SPA PURCHASE WAS SAFE WITH THEM HONORING IT , when I tried to make a claim ---I had not used Superdeck Duckback oil so could not make a claim within the time guarantee,and was told that the company had been bought out and the factory had moved from one side of the USA to the other side a brand new company with the same name now trading . AFTER THE ORIGINAL CATALINA SPA COMPANY USA SOLD OUT DUE TO RETIREMENT AND NEW COMPANY LPI NOT HONORING THE WARRANTY PROVIDED A FEW YEARS EARLIER . LPI . Now new owner of Catalina spas since 2016 stated this said when they purchased Catalina spas they had to deal with several years of complaints so they stopped doing wood cabinets (they apparently were individually made by hand )and made changes for an improved product . UK sellers called Catalina spas ,they state are a small private company selling the product sold by makers of Catalina spas . Since leaving the review ,have had an email from Catalina spas UK and they want to do nothing more to help this customer (me)to get a replacement part so they will not be getting back to me with prices .

Hello Lyn,
Thank you for your review. As discussed over the phone, the warranty is designed to cover fault in material and or workmanship, it does not cover damage, misuse or neglect. As a natural product our wooden cabinets require special care, attention and maintenance. Our warranty details that we have shared with you are “10 YEAR – Spa wooden cabinet warranty: From date of purchase against defects in materials or workmanship. Specifically excluded from this warranty, I damage due to negligence, misuse, vandalism, accidents or natural disasters. The cabinet must be treated every 12 months using Catalina approved Stain and sealer, which can be purchased online or from your dealership.". As mentioned to you we do not have any history of the cabinet being treated, no purchases of the treatment and also no record of servicing. Unfortunately we had to conclude that the terms of the warranty were not met and that we were unable to accept your warranty claim.

We will continue to get the pricing and availability of the parts as agreed, as soon as we have the information we will come back to you.

We are a small family business and we pride ourselves on our customer service and dedication to our customers. We are sorry that you feel the need to leave us a negative review.
