Leisure Concepts Cover Catch/Covermate III for Jacuzzi 400-series/options???
Jacuzzi Jim:
Pretty sure the covermate 4 is the only option that will work with the raised back. Make sure if you go with it that it is a covermate 4 not CM 3. The CM 3 has plastic side brackets and the CM 4 has metal.

Jim,
Is the CV 4 made specifically for the Jacuzzi brand spas. I have never seen that, nor can I find it anywhere. I would much prefer the metal brackets vs the plastic. The CM 3 just isnt as good as it used to be with the plastic side brackets they now use.

Never heard it referred to as the Covermate 4 before, but there are specific Covermate 3 models for each of those Jacuzzi 400 series tubs that are only available at Jacuzzi dealers. Jacuzzi Jim would know as it's a Jacuzzi-only model.
We've sold the Covermate Catch but it is very simple. Not exactly in the same league as the Covermate 3. With that tub you're going to be locked into the specially designed lift just like that specially designed cover.

Thanks for the picture, Kevin - looks great!
The tub will be going in our backyard which has a northern exposure and we tend to get sun back there after 12pm, so we'll see how the vinyl holds up. Our colour combo is Opal and Roasted Chestnut. I'm really "on the fence" right now re: the CM 3. I'm from Canada so I'll definitely be out in the tub during the winter months so obviously want to the cover off the ground, and it can get windy sometimes so I can see how the cover (lifted) might help in that sitch. I'm fighting over looks vs. functionality ::). I was talking with my Jacuzzi dealer about it today and he even admits that he doesn't like showcasing the cover lifter because he feels it takes away from the look of the tub LOL :o Ideally I wish there was a system out there that lifts the cover over and down behind the tub, but it looks like I'm stuck because of the uniqueness of the tub design???
Jacuzzi Jim:
As far as I know you can order the covermate 4 direct from Leisure concepts doesn't matter if your a Jacuzzi dealer or not how would they know anyway.
Funny all this came up, I just got an e-mail from Leisure concepts today about a new metal plate that is suppose to help with the stability of the plastic mount. Also looks like they may be changing the type of plastic used. Ever since they changed to the plastic bracket we very rarely sell that lift anymore. Junk I tell you! Junk.
