By far we liked the J-245... no lounger for us. I liked it but my wife did not. The additional 3k in price was not justifiable for lighted cup holders and some small bells and whistles. The additional warranty was appealing to me but not for that price.
Anyway... I ended up buying the J-245 for $5776... out the door for $6239 including tax, delivery, cover, lifter and chemicals. Cash.
Very excited and can't wait for delivery! Thanks to all in the forum for the help!

Let us know how your delivery and first soak goes! I'm sure you'll have more questions related to water chemistry etc once you get going...Feel free to ask!

I really appreciate that Bradleyabell! Actually, just had the electrician out today. Of course per code we can't put the panel box where I want it, so he needs to access under our new deck... which currently is impossible. So, I spoke with the deck builder and he's going to come out and add an access door... what's another $275 at this point?! Haha... it'll actually be a benefit for storage and things.
Cannot wait for that first soak!! Will keep you all posted.
Thanks again!

Might as well do it right though if I'd known the electrician I might have asked him not to hassle the Hoff70.

Update!
We finally got our tub delivered and installed today. Took a little longer than expected from the dealer, but patience is a virtue. Anyway... had my first soak tonight... actually 3 soaks... WOW... so worth the wait! I feel so relaxed right now!
A couple questions:
My tub has 2 pumps but no circ pump. I was told to leave pump 1 on low the circulate the water when not in use. Do I leave this on ALL the time? Or can I just turn it on like an hour or 2 before we use the tub?
Regarding chemicals... I'm a total novice here. I did the test strip and added a tablespoon of chlorine... strip came out ok. Not perfect but ok. There seem to be so many different options for chemicals. Is it possible that my home tap water is decent enough to where I only need to add chlorine every few days and conditioner when needed?
Major thanks to this forum for all the help!
