This is actually pretty laughable if you know me and if you knew how much time I have spent reading up about the various tubs and being rather obsessive during this process, but I have no idea which pump I ended up with.
Seriously, I've been driving my husband mad.
We ended up purchasing the floor model and I did so in a very spur-of-the-moment fashion. I forgot during the visit that this tub had two different pumps available and don't remember discussing what pump was in it. Guess I will need to call tomorrow and find out -- we are planning on going with the upgraded electric and not plug in which we did discuss with the dealer. The tub struck me as being a quality build -- the matching steps that came with it seem really heavy duty and well made and it boosted my confidence that if the steps were that nice then the tub itself must be well made also. Plus, the tub in the store was just plain pretty. Isn't it funny how the little things can sway somebody's decision ...
What's funny is that even as I realize today some of the details that I didn't work through during the purchase, I am not nervous but still totally excited and can't wait to get the tub delivered. The dealer is storing until the electrical work gets done. BTW, what really swayed me was that this tub has higher sides that the Jacuzzi J315 and seemed just a little bit roomier. It seemed like a good compromise between the small tubs and full sized tubs.
Thanks very much to the forum -- I haven't posted much, but I certainly have been appreciating all the advice stored here.
