Jacuzzi JLXL
dmessina7:
Hi, I am very impressed looks wise and comfort wise with the JLX series hot tub. I was offered a 'floor model' 2011 JLXL with sunbrella cover and prostep stairs for $6999. The dealer is also offering to take away my old tub for free (it has two seized pumps and a rotten wooden belly) and install for free. This seems like a pretty good deal right?
it is the 2011 so it does not have the pro clear purification, instead using and ozonator, which doesnt seem like a big deal right?
Also, the dealer is recommending a silver ion system. (proteam shock and swim) How does this compare to chlorine?
Thanks in advance!

It's a good price, for a 2011 his "cost" on that spa was actually higher than a 2012 Is he still giving you a 5 year warranty?
As far as Proclear or Nat2/Nature 2 (silver ion) is very effective and works well, you could put a Clear Ray on it but not sure it's worth the added cost to do so. Ozone and Nat 2 are fine add a bit of dichlor and you are on your way.

it has a minor warp on the top panel of the tub but something you have to look really hard to actually see. He said jacuzzi gave him a break on the price because of it and he is extending it to me. plus he is giving me $500 off for sticking with jacuzzi (my old tub was a jacuzzi). As far as the warranty it still has the full 5 years from when it is installed. I was actually up in the air between this and the j365-j375. I went with this simply for the sleek look (and seemingly very good value). All three tubs were very comfortable.
Thanks for your feedback Jim!

i meant to say, I am leaning towards the JLXL because of the sleek look. I have not finalized any purchase yet.

Warp on top panel? Since I can't be totaly sure what that means I'd say make sure that warpage is not going to affect the cover fit. If I was thought the cover fit might be compromised I'd skip it but i can't tell from your description.
