I've overlooked the puddle since I first got the tub in Feb., thinking it is normal. But I'm just getting sick of looking at a puddle on a cover I'm sure it's not suppose to happen. Does anyone elses Jacuzzi cover get puddles on there cover?

I thought all covers were tappered from the middle out. Yours looks like it tappered from the picture's right all the way through to the left side. Is that the case with yours?

Yes, the J470 has a high back so it tapers from one side to the other. The problem is, the back half is lower then the front half so it sit's in the middle. And that is where all the threads are, so I'm worried it will ruin the threads and leak in a very short time. The tub is sealed good, so the cover is on good. It just doesn't look like the top is made right. I let my dealer know, but waiting to see what will happen.

And that type cover lift will weaken the threads even more. I sure wish you good luck in getting that resolved. Doesn't look good the way it is now.
