Default Jacuzzi/Lowes branded

(last msg had wrong e-mail)


Anyone have experience with LOWES line of Espree Jacuzzi tubs?
The price is about half what the Jacuzzi dealers charge for an equivalent
tub.
The Jacuzzi dealer said that they are made much cheaper than non-LOWES'
tubs, and will probably end up leaking.
Any thoughts anyone?
Thanks, Tom

Call up Jacuzzi company and ask. I called up Pella to ask the difference
between exterior door sold by Lowes and doors sold at Pella store for $1000
more. Answer was that they were same quality.... only different selection
of glass patterns. (Note that windows are different products though.)

I wondered about that (their wondows).

I helped a friend of mine redo a house for someone last month. All new
windows and doors. They were Pella windows, but just didn't look like the
quality of ones I have seen in the past. Not saying they were inferior. Just
not the same. And he paid a lot less than what the top notch Pellas run....

The Pella windows at Lowes are mostly vinyl products that they don't even
sell in the Pella stores. Pella bought a vinyl window company and put their
label on it for Lowes.
