Title: Sundance Chelsee vs Jacuzzi J-345
Post by: shb18 on August 15, 2017, 10:45:01 am
Hi everyone,
Have narrowed our search down to two very similar seeming tubs, the Sundance Chelsee and the Jacuzzi J-345. Price is basically the same, couple of hundred dollars difference. Looking to you experts for a push one way or the other.

Any opinions are welcome! Thanks!

Welcome,

Both are made in the same factory. The Chelsee is a larger tub but shares many of the same parts etc. Wet test both and select based on that and the dealer you feel will support you the best after the sell.

 J-345 any day of the week.   Way better foot jet's, 2 diverters on top, and better filtration IMO.

We are new to the hot tub world. We just ordered the Sundance Chelsee today. Hoping it's a good decision!

The Sundance Chelsee is a large,comfortable tub with  relatively open seating and a foot dome. I was close to buying one but opted for a dry floor model Optima for just a little more money. I am sure I would have been happy with the Chelsee. You made a good decision. Enjoy your tub.

I love the Chelsee, and would take it over the J-345 any day. Sundance updated the 2017 model with a better control panel and upgraded lighting from 2016. It looks a LOT like an Optima at a much lower price. And it's even a little more powerful because it has the same pumps with fewer jets. Solid value for sure. you will love it!
