I admit to being a novice on all of this. What is the benefit of 2 pumps vs 1? Also what is the benefit of a tub having Ozone vs not having it?
Thanks again!

2 pumps...one pump works half of the jets the other does the other half of the jets = more power to each jet
Ozone is a natural way to clean your tub and allows you to be able to use less chemicals.
I bought a Bullfrog X8L September 2017 and LOVE it...Paid $6.8k for it before sales tax (cash). Definitely wet test a lounger version and a non-lounger, as we did not think for a second we would like the lounger, but turns out after the wet test that we LOVED it. Let me know if you have any more questions!

Well thank you all (especially Jacuzzi Jim!) for the feedback! We wet tested the J-245 & J-335 today. 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!

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.
