Title: Jacuzzi j-480
Post by: glassff on August 21, 2008, 11:32:00 pm
Anybody have any reviews for the Jacuzzi J-480.  What price should you expect to pay for a new model.  Any information will be appreciated.

We have several new owners of J-470 and J-480 tubs on this site. I love my 470 and paid just under 12K with taxes and extras. I got all the bells and whistles.

scott,
Thanks for the quick reply.  I've been looking at a 2008 J-480 for right at 12k.
Hope to hear from more owners.

Lowest price for a J-480 on here was $10,500 over the past 6 months.  Remember that your prices may be higher for any number of factors but that gives you an idea of the lower end of the street price for that product.

That's a great price if a stereo is included. The J-480 is top of the line IMHO.

It is a very very nice spa.  If you have wet tested and like the feel, then go for it.

Excellent Choice Glassff...  We pulled the trigger earlier this year and bought our '07 model 480.  We came upon a wet floor model loaded for just under $10K in NY.  No regrets!  No notable issues within the past few months... I have noticed that the I-Pod dock may get wet following a summer storm.  >:(

Chems are simple - N2 / Dichlor / MPS.  

Evidently there are a few different jets on the '08 and lights in the cupholders - otherwise identical to '07.

Good luck on your search...  

BTW - The members here on "whats the best" were amazing during our search.  Couldn't have done it w/o their guidance.  Best of luck!
