Ryan5508 Posted June 20, 2015 Report Share Posted June 20, 2015 I am currently in the market for a new tub in the next 2-3 month time frame. I previously owned a coast spa Lanni about 10 years ago. In my area there are 4 main brands I am testing and checking out currently -Jacuzzi -Bullfrog -Hotspring -D1 spas Of course every sales person tells you there tub is the best for "x" reasons. Its also funny the next shop tells you the same exact reasons why their product is better. So obviously it makes it hard for a buyer to make a good choice. So far I have on my short list the following tubs -Jacuzzi J-575 (tested wet) -Jacuzzi J-465 (tested wet) -Hotsprings Envoy NXT (Dry) testing Saturday wet -Hotsprings Grandee NXT (tested wet) -Bullfrog A8L (Dry) -D1 spas Amore Bay (Dry) My top choices right now would be between the J-575 and either of the hotsprings. Still waiting on price info for the Jacuzzi's. J-575 pro- Jets feel amazing and different in every seat. Sleek look and lighting. Very quiet operation. Control panel is easy to use. con- Feels a little shallow. Pillows all to low for me to use (6'4"). Hotsprings NXT's pro- Sleek look outside. detachable control panel was best I tried. corner seats with moving jet was nice. pillow was in a better spot con- one corner seats with moving jet was broken and not moving already. no center footwell hump to put your feet against. slightly loud in store? Anyone care to give some advice, personal experiences on these? or recommend a good review site to read. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan5508 Posted June 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2015 Either my Jacuzzi dealer is overpriced or the Jacuzzi itself is. Out the door prices 400 series - $13,780 500 series - $16,960 Hotsprings envoy nxt - $12,500 (different dealer) This is with the dealer claiming that the Jacuzzi are both at the lowest possible price. And they have been selling them for much more there. Do these seem correct? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
