Title: All Jacuzzi j-365s and no J-355s ?????
Post by: johnnythunders on August 30, 2004, 09:52:48 pm
Hummm just wondering why are everyone buying the J-365 and NONE are buying the Jacuzzi J-355?Its the same size same everything except for 2 more jets and no lounger.I like the lounger and its nice to have I call it the Captains chair lol.Its a nice spa and just changed the water last night and a bit cool when i went into it today but its still warming up a bit.I guess if you are having 4 people or more they would have the J-365 or the J375 with lounger.But the J-355 is big enough for 2 or 3 and if more get another spa lol....JohnnyThunders ;)

Johnny Thunders,

Good question.  I've noticed alot of people, myself included, who's bought this model recently. I'll give you the main reasons I liked this tub more - in comparison.

1)  We considered loungers when we were narrowing down our search and had trouble finding one that fit us both very well.  I can't remember what the J-355 in particular was like, but some of the ones we tried out either sat too low/deep for my wife, or didn't have enough length for my legs to lay flat before my feet hit the wall.

2) As you mentioned we liked the idea of not being cramped when we do have guests over.  Although most of the time it's just two of us, the extra space is nice.

3) The four footwell jets feel great.  They're in a great location from any seat.    

We also considered the J-385 (lounger model - actually largest Jacuzzi model), but simply didn't like the tub any better than the J-365.  With that said, the considerable price increase made our final decision for the J-365 even easier.

The Jacuzzi J-365 is a very nice spa for the price.I think the J-355 is just a tad smaller since i wanted the lounger.Same size as the J-365 but smaller with the lounger hold 1 less person lol.Another reason I got the lounger is because i can lay back at night and just look at the stars and jet planes that are 25,000 feet above me lol.Jt ;)

 :) I have a J-355.  I also really LOVE the foot jets.  Although the lounger fits my 6foot 1inch husband, I cannot use it comfortably without a cushion.  I am 5foot 4inches.  I wish those foot jets on the lounger were just about 2 inches closer  ;)

I think the Lounger could be a big bigger,i am 6ft3in but the seats are very wide and i like it that way and others might not like the wide seats.Jt :P

JCMSRV,

The primary reason we chose the the 365 was for the foot dome.

We tried a Bullfrog tub this past summer that had the foot dome and loved the massage placement and the fact that it is a place to rest the feet against. It is also good for people who float. My wife floated in a few of the wet tests. She does not have that problem with the 365.

We have had the tub for a week and thoroughly enjoy it.
