Welcome to our forum.
June of 98 Jacuzzi Brands Inc purchased Sundance spas. Jacuzzi Brands accuired a state of the art production facility to build both sundance and Jacuzzi Premium Spas. To say that Sundance Builds Jacuzzi is like saying that Mercury builds Fords. I'm sure thats what some Sundance reps would like to say, But it's not true. The truth is that both Jacuzzi and Sundance are built on the same assembly line in the former Sundance plant that is now the Jacuzzi Plant.
Tony, I'm sure that is what your sundance rep tells you. If that is the case then why is the new and updated version of the optima now showing a Jacuzzi Logo...I'm sure you saw the J-470 at the aqua show. The same enginierrs that design Jacuzzi and Sundance were at the show explaining how the new J-470 had all the "newest and most state of the art" features. All the sundance Reps were upset to see the new waterfall on the jacuzzi when they thought they were getting those in 07. And why is the pan bottom only on the Jacuzzi brand while sundance frames still have the same wood bottom structure that the J-200 series has (u remember the lower line) And finaly the flagship of the Jacuzzi Brands (including Sundance) has a Jacuzzi logo on it
The engineers that design the SD spas are the same that design the JP spas.
