Welcome to our forum.
Hello All,I am fairly new to Hot tubs/Spas as I have never owned one before. I decided a few months ago that when I move into my new house I will want to put a Spa on the Screened in back porch. Because my Porch is 14x12, I am looking to get a smaller 4-5 person spa so I will be able to also sit on the Porch as well. After doing some research and reading, I have narrowed it down to the Sundance 780 Monticlair and the Jacuzzi J325. Both fit the size category that I am interested in. I do know the Sundance has a few more feature than the Jacuzzi (jets, lounger and filter). I do not really care much about the Lounger and have found out that both are made by the same company. I can get the Jacuzzi for about 7k and the Sundance for 8k (with taxes and delivery). Does those prices sound fair (in South Carolina). Which one would you recommend? Any other thoughts or insight about which would be a better spa would be greatly appreciated. Also, if you have any other recommendations of a 4-5 person spa that i should be looking at (in the 7x7 size or smaller), I would take that advice as well.Thank you!
Hello everyone,I ruled out Hotsprings because the seats sit to low for me. I liked how both the Jacuzzi and Sundance felt when I sat in them. I just don't know if I can justify spending an extra 1000 for the Sundance. Marquis is not available in my area and I haven't seen Artesian, Artic, Bullfrog or D1 in any of the shops I have visited. I have visited all the spots from my google search, but will search again to verify. Do you all think pricing is fair? Quickbeam, what sort of pricing should I expect with a J345? Also my local dealer for Jacuzzi had a really high price for the J325 and when I called the Columbia store, they had it for 6200. With shipping and tax it took it so 7k.
