Welcome to our forum.
Both are good. If you go with the Bullfrog, get the circ if you can, I believe it makes a huge difference in keeping your pH from rising, which can be a huge factor in enjoying easy breezy water care.Grandee NXT owner here. Love it. My wife and I use it every night! If you have questions about it, happy to elaborate.

Love it. My wife and I use it every night! If you have questions about it, happy to elaborate. Thanks for the info. I would definitely get the circ pump. What led you to get the HS over the BF...just personal preference? I love the lounger in the HS, but it just doesn't fit my wife well. That is one of the reasons we are looking at the Grandee...we both love the dual MotoMassages and no lounger in that model. Anything else I should think about in your opinion?
I love a circ pump as much as the next guy, but how does a circ pump keep your PH from rising? Makes no sense what so ever..
Always been a Hot Spring guy, I've just preferred their jets, water management, and style to anything else I've sold... which to this point is Bullfrog, Jacuzzi, and now Caldera. They way I use my spa is jets for 10-15 minutes, then soak for for another 20. Jets are important, but I love how large the Grandee is. It is wide open, great for stretch or kids playing around. Sounds stupid, but on the NXT, the lights on the outside are perfect for not stepping on rocks or bugs, plus it looks awesome.Also, my kiddos learned their colors on the remote control.Finally, we have the ACE system. I've used that for the past 4 years, made my choice fairly easy for that reason alone. To address your other post, stagnant water wouldn't be an issue on either tubs. I believe the old BF design had a huge problem, the new one... not so much. They have addressed that.I wouldn't be concerned about the BF dealer dabbling in other businesses, unless it causes his/her spa business service to tank. We had a dealer that is what I call "Jack of all trades, masters of none." They do everything...poorly IMO. We specialize in hot tubs and Endless Pools.. done. If you have a problem and are my customer, come to me... you probably have my cell #.Last bit... A & B is an awesome company. I know John, the owner, personally. His team makes great products that are rock solid in durability. He also stands behind his products if there is an issue... always a good trait
