Title: Jacuzzi owners
Post by: wmccall on September 22, 2005, 11:47:03 am
I still love looking at tubs, and comparing, as well as hearing about your experiences.   Recently I stopped for chemicals at the local  Sundance/Jacuzzi store.  I actually looked at every tub they had on the floor, which was a considerable number.

Great people and nice showroom.  Based on looks only, I migrated to a couple of Sundance spas.  I have found with some spas things that look great or not great, maybe the opposite when you actually get in them. That said, I didn't like the looks of the Jacuzzi loungers.

Can a person over 6 foot sit comfortably in these loungers? I can understand if a person couldn't sit in the corner seat at the same time, that is no big deal for me, but the way the loungers seem to curve doesn't look comfortable.  

Just an observation, feel free to correct me, I'm use to it  ;D

If I was buying another tub  without a lounger, I would definitely include Jacuzzi.

It didn't make sense to me, but I believe the lounger in the 375 is deeper and thus effectively longer than in the 385.  The Jacuzzi folks got the spec sheets out when I was checking them out.  At 5'7", I somewhat fit in the 375.  (It was all that was wet), but it was a touch big for me.  Sitting dry, I fit pretty well in the 385.  I think if you are over 6', you probably won't like the 385 lounger, but might find the 375 lounger to your liking.

Our choice was between the J385 and the Marquis Epic (which we bought).  My husband is 6'3" and the lounger in the 385 didn't work for him.
