Who should buy which

You plunge daily, ice is expensive where you live, or you want horizontal full-body immersion.
Budget-conscious buyers who want chillered convenience but can't justify $9K+ - accept some warranty downside for a 50% discount.
You want the longest warranty (Plunge or Renu), or maximum service-network depth.
