What kind of Hot Tub do you have?

[Dee Dee]

Just a few questions ---
1.  What kind of hot tub do you have, make and model?
2.  How long have you had it?
3.  How much did you pay for it?
4.  Did you get the "radio and the lights"?  If you did were they worth it?
5.  Are you happy with your hot tub choice?
6.  Where do you live?
Thanks in advance...

Our first hot tub we got for free...sort of. It was a 1992 model CalSpa that was in a little old ladies rec room which had been a deck on the outside of the house and had been closed in around the hot tub. She just wanted it out and was getting ready to have someone cut it in half to get it out. I dismantled a patio door and got some friends to help me move it out. It cleared the header by 1/2", but came on out, then I spent the rest of the day putting the door back together.  We used it for about 5 years, then gave it to our son, and bought a slightly used Jacuzzi J350. We LOVE it. Much better jets and pumps than the Cal Spa, but unlike the older Cal Spa it is temp limited to 104 deg. We would like another degree or two sometimes. We paid $3000 for it, and had to put a new temperature sensor in.  I don't think we would opt for a radio. If you are running jets, I doubt you could enjoy a radio. Sometimes I do like the colored LED lights, but most often we sit in the dark. I find the waterfall a little annoying, and usually shut it off.
We live in the Blue Ridge Mtns. in Virgina, and use the tub year round.
