Not saying I agree or disagree but why Artesian over jacuzzi/Sundance?

Less proprietary parts in Artesian

I'll limit my opinions to the brand I used to sell of the ones you've mentioned: South Seas 735 Model. My only complaint was the operating sound level. I felt like the motors ran a tad louder due to the lack of mounting brackets / rubber mounts. This was a few years back and this might have been since rectified.

This has indeed been rectified.

Thank you all for weighing in!
I am leaning strongly Artesian at this point, and yes I did test that one and the Jacuzzi - didn't notice a big issue with the noise. The Jacuzzi felt a bit deeper which I liked, but it does not have a cooldown seat - being "of a certain age" sudden body temp fluctuations are a thing in my life now, sigh.
And yes, I used chlorine, Vermonter-style in my old Jacuzzi. That worked very well, and I would expect to continue, in combination with the ozone. I did replace the ozone in my previous tub when we sold the house, about 5 years later - as I recall it was not a huge deal, about $250.
Thanks again . . . :D pix to follow!

Hi Everyone!
Well it's been a journey - refurbishing our backyard hardscape with a new patio and deck to create a home for the Artesian. It arrived yesterday and got connected to juice today! So I'm looking forward to a soak under the stars tonight . . . thanks so much for the advice 8)
