Welcome to our forum.
All reputable brands. You're in the zone of quality. Wet test "pays all the bills." Do that first, then research the dealer- are they reputable? From there, if the answer isn't obvious, let us know which few units you like, price points, etc.Floor models are a toss up: I totally hedge on them b/c usually they're fine and its a great bargain. However, you never know. New eliminates doubt. But floor models allow for great discounts. Trust your instincts. Good luck moving forward.
Thanks guys. Appreciate all the advice. Wet tested euphoria (10k), pulse (11k) and j-345 (quoted 10k for j-385 floor model but only j-345 had water in it for wet test) today. 3 wet tests in one day was exhausting, especially since all three were set pretty warm. Pulse was comfortable but beyond our 10k budget. Euphoria was ok but jets seemed weaker and seats had bigger range of heights. Liked that euphoria control panel was facing in. J-345 was hard to gage since it was last wet test (exhausted), uncomfortably hot (104), and seemed to be filled too high. Does anyone know if j-385 seats would feel significantly different from j-345 or are j-385 seats just wider with more leg room?I feel like we really need to wet test bullfrog but the dealer doesnt currently have one filled. I imagine wet testing bullfrog is a must since you have to choose jet packs.Is pulse at 11k a good price or has anyone had success getting it down to 10k or lower? I think i would skip ace salt system.Thanks again, great forum.
I think we r gonna go with Hot Springs Pulse. Got price down to 9900. No ACE or sound system but everything else included.Thanks again for all the advice.
