Used 2007 Jacuzzi J-335 vs New 2010 Hot Spot Relay
Jacuzzi Jim:
First off going from a HS relay to a J-400 series is like comparing a Lexus to a VW bug no comparison!! 2nd to have 6 J-335s with stereo's from 1 hotel is B,chit never been to a hotel with 6 of the same spa's let alone 6 Jacuzzi's that were as bad as you say, not calling you a liar but hard to believe and if true the sales guy is playing you! 3rd I really doubt you will find a J-335/J-345 or above in a 5000 price range I would be amazed if you did. Sorry but what your saying makes no sense,I could be wrong and if so I apologize good luck in your search and if the sales guy is pitching that much BS run away, real fast!
To add a 2010 J-335 with a stereo at 8600 is a really really good price but skip the J-335 and get the J-345 without a stereo and save some cash.

Jacuzzi Jim,
Everything you said, is exactly what went through my mind when the sales guy was feeding me that info.
"According to him, they installed the spas on the roof top lounge area at the really nice Grand Hyatt in downtown San Antonio before the construction was done. They left them out in our 100+ degree weather (51 days straight of over 100) last summer and didn't have them covered. The headrest literally looked shrunken, and a lot of the pieces looked faded. They were all Graphite (black) interior which only made matters worse. Supposedly they took them back and gave the Hyatt all brand new ones. Maybe I should take a quick swing by the Hyatt and have them tour me through this area :-).
As for the J-400 vs HS Relay, I couldn't agree with you more. That was the only two I could wet test in the store. I focused only on the seats in the J-400 that had the same jets that were in the J-335 so I could get a decent comparison on what the Jacuzzi Jets felt like compared to Hot Springs (Hot Spot). Obviously I thought the Jacuzzi Jets were far more comfortable on low and high settings.
I know I can't get it for $5000 new, but my question is: Is $8600 for a new J-335 with stereo to much? He is telling me that, its $1000 off of $9600 and he is throwing in a free cover and steps. I'm in sales, and I can only imagine at the end of the month going into winter, they have to be looking to close a sale.

The cover comes with the spa shouldn't really be an extra cost to you and as I mentioned, (unless you really want it) skip the stereo tell him to throw the lift in and its a deal. Negotiate the ozone in for 200.00 FWIW you still can't compare the hot spot to the J-335 you need to jump above the hot spot to a actual Hot Spring spa like a Prodigy (1 pump) or Vanguard not a off shoot spa like the Limelight or hot spot.

Thanks Jacuzzi Jim,
So your saying $7600 for the new 2010 J-335 without stereo, with cover, steps, cover lift, and ozone is a good deal, or just normal everyday price?
Also would you get the J-335 or J-345(without lounge) since they are the same price, or is that just a personal preference type of thing?
Jacuzzi Jim:
That would be a good price in our store, and yes I like the J-345 better. 2 divertor hndls and a few more jets here and there the lounge in the 335 takes up a seat depending on how many will be using it?
