Welcome to our forum.
just to put my 2 cents in Since Jacuzzi has move their operations back to Cali from Texas most of the higher ups in tech & R&D from Sundance have been brought over to the Jacuzzi side of things to make a better product & bring up overall sales. Next year the sundance circ pump will be put into the Jacuzzi line. For the next few years most of the better ideas will be implemented on the Jacuzzi side of things & once they achieve the market share they have projected, all the new ideas will be split and divided according to previous year sales. It is more than likely that SD will be streamlined a bit my a few tubs going by the way side.This was told to me by 3 R&D guys over drinks who are pulling double duty for Jacuzzi & Sundance in Cali
I very seriously doubt the most recognizable name in the industry will ever sucumb the sundance.
I think Corporate has to dance quite a bit to make each feel like they're top dog.
Posted by: Wisoki Posted on: Today at 4:25pmNothing like he said she said to clear things up. I will let you call me a liar when the 07 Jacuzzi's dont have the same circ pump as a sundance and becausec I fabricated the whole thing
Then Duffman comes along and does his in-depth study and ends up buying a J385. Maybe that's it...because of Duffman...Jacuzzi is getting more attention.
Spatech...I absolutely agree. I did a ton of research and wet tested many hot-tubs. There were 2-3 I liked equally. I think when that happens is where this forum comes in and has an influence. It could be negative it could be positive. It's how one interprets the information.
Just to clear something up that tony said in an earlier post. the J400 series and the sundance 880 series do not share the same filtration. they do share the same circ pump and they both have a 10 micron, microban impregnated filter but the J400 hundred still uses a vertical filter set up and also a true bottom suction filter that sucks from the floor and empty' into a 10 micron replaceable filter bag.
