My husband and I have decided to purchase a hot tub and went looking last night. We chose the Jacuzzi 480 after an hour and a half of discussion with the sales man. He was very knowledgeable and took the time to answer all our questions. The store only carried the Jacuzzi and Bullfrog brand. The one I think I want is the 480 and with smart steps, safety rail, cover lifter, delivery, setup and 30 day chemical supply the out the door price is $12,818. Can anyone tell me if the price is reasonable and any other suggestions I would sincerely appreciate. I have read this forum and now think I may need ot do a wet test at the very least before I make a final decision. I only want to buy one for the next 15-20 years - is this feasible? I would rather pay a little more upfront and have lower operational/maintenance costs. Thanks to all. Chris Bulls
