whirlppol bathtub question

Has anyone had any experience with the Jacuzzi "espree" whirlpool bath at Lowe's for $699.00? Any information would be extremely helpful as I am getting ready to re-model my 2 bathrooms. Thanks, in advance. Roadrunner in Arizona

The wife and I installed one a couple of months ago and we I like it. Bit of a pain keeping clean and is a little tall when getting in and out. Easy to install, I recommend using regular electrical outlets and installing ground fault breakers. Inspect the tub's pump and piping before taking it home. The pump in the first one I got was misaligned and not mounted correctly. A real big pain reboxing and returning to the store for a replacement.

Larry -- Thanks for the info -- much appreciated.

I was set on buying the same tub (I even special ordered the tile flange kit), but decided on the American Standard unit that HD sells at the same price. I like the new design (the Lifetime series) and the fact that it has a deeper soak.

I haven't installed or used it yet, so I don't know if the new jet design is good or just marketing hype.
