Features of the Dream Maker Spa X-400

  • 110v operation
  • 4-person bucket seating
  • 11 hydrotherapy jets
  • 235 gallons capacity
  • 1.5-horsepower pump
  • LED backlit waterfall

110 Volt Operation

The Dream Maker Spa X-400 runs from a regular 110-volt 15-amp power outlet, giving you the convenience of plug & play operation as well as the cost savings of not requiring additional electrical work to get it running.

One-piece Design

As the X-400 is a rotationally moulded hot tub, it has been constructed in one piece which provides several advantages. It makes the hot tub much easier to move for portability plus it means there are no exterior parts which can wear away over time such as wood panelling.

The use of full foam insulation reduces the loss of heat which contributes a lot to the low running costs of this spa.

Four-Person Capacity

Up to four adults can relax in the X-400 in the large bucket seats. The seats feature lumbar support and arm rests so you can relax your back and arms for a deeply rejuvenating experience.

11 Waterway Jets

A 1.5 horsepower AquaFlow pump powers the 11 Waterway hydrotherapy jets. These jets are self-controlled so you can adjust the direction and water flow to your preference.

Waterfall

The patented waterfall feature uses an LED backlight and provides 9 different light settings to create a wonderful ambience in the spa at night with a color changing waterfall.

Cup Holders

Four deep cup holders are located top-side to give you a handy place to put your drinks. This is a small feature often overlooked on many spas so we’re pleased to see Dream Maker included them.

Pros and Cons of the Dream Maker Spa X-400

Pros

Exceptionally durable, easy plug & play setup, energy efficient heating system, low maintenance. The Dream Maker Spa X-400 has what it takes to make the dreams come true of those wanting an affordable plug & play spa that is energy efficient and built to last.

Cons

Due to the friction heating system used, it takes longer to heat-up the water to a suitable temperature level than hot tubs with electric heaters. Although using warm water to fill the spa and placing the cover on decreases the heating time significantly.

Final Thoughts

From a cost efficiency and convenience perspective in particularly, the Dream Maker Spa X-400 is an outstanding choice for a portable spa. Its one-piece design and 110v operation give you the freedom to move it to almost any location. Hot Tubs Reviews rates the X-400 as a good buy.


Spa Hot Tub 6 Person 28 Jets 2 HP Pump 1 Lounger DuraSport G-2 Spa Review

DuraSport G-2 Spa Review


Durasport have carved out quite a name for themselves in the hot tub industry with their range of spas which prioritize convenience, efficiency and reliability without being overpriced. The DuraSport G-2 Spa is a rotationally moulded spa which is available in two models, either standard or premium.
The premium model differs by including a Water Fall, stainless steel jets, 4 HP pump plus better lighting. We’re reviewing the standard model here which comes with a 6 seat capacity and 2 HP pump.

Read Consumer Reviews on the DuraSport G-2 Spa

Features of the DuraSport G-2 Spa

  • Roto Molded in the US
  • 6 seat capacity
  • 2-horsepower pump; 28 jets
  • 120/240V voltage compatibility
  • Insulted thick top cover
  • Matching steps
  • Lifetime warranty on shell; 1-year warranty on parts
Traditional Design

The G-2 spa has a traditional design which makes it stand out from regular modern spas. The cobblestone interior looks fantastic and is well complimented by the eight millstone colored removable side panels.

Plug & Play

DuraSport prides them self on the easy 3-step installation which their spas provide. No inconvenience or extra cost of hiring expensive electrical contractors. Once you get your G-2 spa, you just place it on an even surface, fill it with water then plug it in to either an 110v exterior power outlet or a 240v outlet using an optional conversion. We recommend connecting it to either a 220v or 240v outlet as the heat-up time is significantly quicker than using 110v.

Unibody Construction

The DuraSport G-2 Spa has been manufactured using a unique unibody construction, which essentially means the spa is comprised of a one-piece unit instead of the regular way of building the body on the frame. This robust construction provides a highly durable structure which makes the spa able to withstand heavy wear and tear without becoming damaged. The spa shell is backed by a US lifetime warranty, the first of its kind in the industry so you can rest assured that the shell will last you a lifetime.

Seating

The G-2 Spa can seat up to six regular sized adults although it would be very cramped with this many people so we recommend no more than four adults at the maximum. A good variety of seating positions are available in the spa. One large lounger seat and a captain’s chair are included, giving you a high level of comfort to relax your body in various positions.

28 Jets

A 2.0-horsepower pump powers the 28 black jets in the G-2 Spa. The two top-side air controls allow you to regulate the amount of air mixed with the jets pressure so you can decide how invigorating you want the air pressure to be.

Includes matching Steps and Soft Cover

Most hot tubs require you to purchase steps additionally if you want them, but the DuraSport G-2 Spa includes them as standard, which is a nice bonus. Getting in and out of the spa will be that much easier with steps. The steps also include interior storage which is very handy for storing any spa gear you have such as cleaning chemicals.

The included top cover is good quality and very flexible so it can be folded over easily when you’re ready to use the spa. It also features safety locking clips so it will remain securely attached to the spa even in adverse weather such as heavy winds.

Pros and Cons of the DuraSport G-2 Spa

Pros

Highly durable, attractive styling, plug & play, underwater lighting, good seating options, the DuraSport G-2 Spa is a hot tub which is built for heavy-duty use all year round.

The lifetime warranty on the shell gives us the confidence that DuraSport stand by their products.

Cons

The manufactures stated capacity of six adults isn’t advisable if you want enough room to relax in the tub.

Final Thoughts

Overall, this is an excellent US made hot tub which has had a lot of thought put into its design. Features such as the unibond construction are worth taking note of if you want a spa which will last a long time. If you want a flexible, durable hot tub for no more than 4 adults then the DuraSport G-2 Spa is a stellar choice.

Aura A529ICE 5-Seat 29-Jet Hot Tub Review

Aura A529ICE 5-Seat 29-Jet Hot Tub Review


Hot Tubs Reviews now gives the Aura A529ICE 5-Seat 29-Jet Hot Tub the once over. This is an attractive large 4 seater hot tub finished in a nice looking ice brown color. As this is an Aura hot tub, its plug and play so no costly installations are required before you can begin enjoying it. Other benefits include its energy efficient components which are designed to keep running costs down.

Read Consumer Reviews on the Aura A529ICE 5-Seat 29-Jet Hot Tub

Features of the Aura A529ICE 5-Seat 29-Jet Hot Tub

  • Easy set up
  • 4 seats plus lounge
  • 265 gallons capacity
  • 29 therapy jets
  • Cover included

Plug and Play

A feature we never overlook is plug and play installation. Normally a feature which is found on smaller sized hot tubs, all of Aura hot tubs feature this so setup is somewhat less stressful and costly. Place the hot tub in your preferred location on a solid level surface, fill it up with water then plug it into a regular outdoor power outlet and then put on the cover and wait a good 24 hours for it to reach its preset temperature of 100° F.  You will also need to add either a chlorine or bromine sanitizer as the final step. The setup process really is that easy.

Seating

The Aura A529ICE has a five person capacity with its 4 seats and relaxing lounge. The interior of the tub is moulded to a high standard so the hot tub is comfortable to sit in. Three of the seats feature a comfortable headrest so you can lie back and rejuvenate in comfort. While the maximum seating capacity is 5 persons, we recommend 4 people maximum to give everyone ample space for ultimate luxury.

29 Therapy Jets

A total of 29 therapy jets are located around the seating areas of this hot tub so you get maximum therapeutic effects whilst sitting. The jets are zone-controlled so you can alter the jets water flow for each individual person in the tub just by turning the jet face in another direction.

Control Panel

The Aura hot tub control panel gives you easy and convenient control over the therapeutic jets, temperature and the LED lighting.

Ozone Ready

An ozonator isn't included with this hot tub, but it is ozone ready so you can purchase one separately. We'd recommend the use of an ozonator because it reduces the amount of chemicals that you need to put into the hot tub to keep the water free of contaminants.

Pros and Cons of the Aura A529ICE 5-Seat 29-Jet Hot Tub

Pros

Plug and plug installation, a whopping 265 gallons capacity, high quality therapy jets, this Aura hot tub delivers a spa experience which most plug and play hot tubs can’t deliver.

A good quality durable cover is included to maintain the temperature and keep out dirt and debris.

Cons

The only drawback of this hot tub is that an ozonator is not included. However, it does have ozone compatibility so you can have the benefits of an ozonator for more hands free and cost effective water maintenance.

Final Thoughts

We’re fond of Aura hot tubs as they combine the convenience of plug and play setup with attractive styling and good features. If you need a roomy 4 seater hot tub which has excellent therapeutic jet action, the Aura A529ICE is a fine choice.

AiriSpa Oval Portable Air Frame Spa Review

AiriSpa Oval Portable Air Frame Spa Review


The AiriSpa Oval Portable Air Frame Spa is a unique looking inflatable spa designed for two people. The oval shaped design and portability makes it ideal for areas where limited space is available. Using revolutionary Air frame technology, the AiriSpa uses a new kind of vinyl layering which sets it apart from regular inflatable spas, so we’re pretty intrigued as to what it has to offer.

Hot Tubs Reviews takes a closer look at the AiriSpa and reveals whether it’s worth going for.

Read Consumer Reviews on the AiriSpa

Features of the AiriSpa Oval Portable Air Frame Spa

  • Easy assembly
  • 190 gallons capacity
  • 1000-watt heater;  127 micro-air jets
  • Self-contained pump + filter system
  • Plugs into regular 120v outlet
  • Includes insular cover
  • 1-year warranty
Size and Color choices

The AiriSpa is available in three different shapes (Oval, Octagon and Round) and four different colors (Forest Green, Blue, Black and Burgandy). The model under review here is in Forest Green and oval shaped, which is designed to seat up to 2 people.

Assembly

Being a portable spa weighing just 86 pounds, the AiriSpa provides you the flexibility of being able to set it up and disassemble it when needed, so you can move it from location to location. Setting up the spa takes about half an hour. Just unfold the spa vessel and inflate it using the included hand pump, then allow another half an hour to fill the spa with water and put the thermal cover on then finally wait 24 hours for it to reach its maximum temperature of 104*F. A 10 ft long GFCI protected cord is included so you have a reasonable amount of leeway as to how far to position the spa away from the power outlet.

Air Frame Technology

The AiriSpa gets the credence of being the first spa worldwide to use the revolutionary Air frame technology. Between the spas layers of vinyl, over 1 million polyester fibers have been crammed in which results in a highly durable body to enhance the spas long-term durability.

127 Micro Air Jets

A 1.3 horsepower pump powers the 127 micro air jets which are situated around the spa. As this is a portable spa, the jets cannot be adjusted, but they do provide a relaxing therapeutic feeling which is great for reliving tired muscles.

Self-contained Design

The pump and filter system are self contained in the AiriSpa’s main power pack so you don’t have the hassle or cost of installing any separate components.

Hydroseating

Sitting in a portable spa has never been as comfortable as sitting in an AiriSpa. Hydroseating is built-in, which consists of two seats that are filled up with water to give you a level of comfort which is superior to sitting on a hard surface.

Pros and Cons of the AiriSpa Oval Portable Air Frame Spa

Pros

Easy setup, portable, highly durable, comfortable, the AiriSpa brings comfort, convenience and durability to the world of portable spas. The Airframe technology is a big plus where durability is concerned.

Good range of shape and color choices.

Cons

The jets are not adjustable so for those looking for a fully customizable spa experience, this spa isn’t for them.

Final Thoughts

The AiriSpa Oval Portable Air Frame Spa takes portable spas into new territory with its Airframe technology, which makes it a good choice for those looking for a portable spa they can use for years to come. With a nice number of jets and a powerful pump, this spa delivers a good level of jet action. We give the AiriSpa a strong recommendation.

Spa-N-A-Box 6' Portable Spa Review

Spa-N-A-Box 6' Portable Spa Review


Next in our line-up of plug and play hot tubs is the Spa-N-A-Box 6' Portable Spa. For under a grand, the Spa-N-A-Box gives you the therapeutic benefits of a hot tub without requiring pricey installations.

If you have a small living space or you just want the freedom to move your spa from one location to another then the Spa-N-A-Box could be the right choice for you. Find out in this review how this spa fairs under closer scrutiny.

Read Consumer Reviews on the Spa-N-A-Box 6' Portable Spa

Features of the Spa-N-A-Box 6' Portable Spa

  • Easy to set-up, without tools
  • 4-5 person capacity
  • 1000-watt heater
  • 1-horsepower turbo wave massage system
  • Thermostatically controlled internal heater



Quick and Easy Setup

The Spa-N-A-Box has been designed to be easy to setup in around 15-20 minutes and doesn’t require any tools to do so. If you’re going to be moving your spa around a lot then this convenience aspect is particularly beneficial.

Seating Capacity

The dimensions of this spa are 27" x 73.5" x 27" (H x W x D) so it’s pretty roomy. The manufactures state the spa can accommodate up to 5 people, however we’d recommend only 4 people at the max to give each person adequate room to relax in the water.

Turbo-wave Massage System

The turbo wave massage system is powered by a 1-horsepower pump and has over 100 micro air jets, giving you hydrotherapeutic benefits to relax and ease your muscles. If you have a lifestyle which involves a lot of physical activity then you’ll especially appreciate the soothing effects of this massage system.

Top-side Digital Temperature Controls

You can conveniently change the temperature of the spa to your preference using the user-friendly controls located top-side on the pump system. The temperature can be set from 80 degrees up to a maximum of 104 degrees, so you can choose a temperature setting comfortable for you.

Pros and Cons of the Spa-N-A-Box 6' Portable Spa

Pros

Easy to setup, cheap, spacious and convenient, the Spa-N-A-Box 6' Portable Spa has cost and convenience at the forefront of its strong points. This spa also has an attractive design with the side panels having an appearance similar to natural redwood.

Cons

Numerous consumers have encountered the pump’s heating element breaking down within 1 year. Furthermore, the pump cannot be sent to the manufactures to be replaced, so you have no option but to buy a new pumping system which costs in the region of $250-300.

Final Thoughts

If a regular hot tub is out of the question due to either your budget or living situation then the Spa-N-A-Box 6' Portable Spa could be right for you. However, the durability of the pump is a cause for concern especially as the entire pumping system needs replacing once the heating element fails. We’d only recommend this spa if portability is a must or you only need use of a spa in the short term before moving onto something bigger and better.

Laguna Bay Spas 5-Person 19-Jet Hot Tub with 110V GFCI Plug Review

Laguna Bay Spas 5-Person 19-Jet Hot Tub Review


If you’ve been endlessly scouring the market for a spacious hot tub that can run from a regular 110v electrical outlet, then your search will be about to stop. The Laguna Bay Spas 5-Person 19-Jet Hot Tub, also known as the Seascape, offers you the chance to experience the benefits of a sizeable hot tub without paying extra for costly electrical work.

Reviews on this hot tub started to surface nearly two years ago and have been positive on the most part with much praise given towards its value for money.

Read Consumer Reviews on the Seascape

Features of the Laguna Bay Spas 5-Person 19-Jet Hot Tub

  • 6-person capacity; Mahogany colored cabinet
  • User-friendly digital controls
  • 19 hydrotherapeutic jets
  • 1.5 HP motor
  • Slip resistant surface
  • Lounger seat, including comfort cushioned headrest
Setup

The Seascape has an output of 110-volt/20 amp, so you can plug it into a standard power outlet. Setting up the spa can be a bit of a chore because you need to remove the side panel to get access to the power cord and instructions, which are on a CD. The panel uses a tongue and groove style of panelling, so it can be awkward to put the panel back in place, but fortunately there is a technique to make this much easier. By placing two wooden blocks under the panel, you can replace the panel yourself in under 5 minutes. This demonstration video shows the panel removing process in action.

Tips:

We recommend that you use a power drill to remove the panel screws to avoid them being damaged by a manual screwdriver.
The power cord included is rather short, so you might need an extension cord if you don’t have an outlet nearby. We recommend you use a 12-gauge heavy-duty extension lead so it can handle the load without overheating.

After you have connected the hot tub to the power outlet, setup is plain sailing from then on. The next step required is to fill the spa to the required level and then wait for it to heat up.

Mahogany Cabinet

The spa comes with a mahogany cabinet, which give the Seascape an attractive, sleek look of a higher end spa. The included spa cover matches the mahogany cabinet, which enhances the overall look of the spa.

Seating Capacity

This hot tub is marketed as having a 5 person capacity, however most consumers recommend only 3 average-sized adults using it at once, for optimum comfort. The lounger seat with its cushioned head rest is nice and relaxing and is long enough to accommodate taller people above 6ft. There are also two seating benches in the tub where you can seat in an upright position.

19 Jets

There are 19 hydrotherapeutic stainless steel jets situated throughout the tub, which are powered by a 1.5 horsepower pump. In terms of power, the jets performance is rather average due to the limitations of the one-speed 1.5 HP pump, but they are still soothing enough to relax tense body muscles.

Energy Efficiency

The Seascape has numerous energy saving design aspects which make it good for saving money as well as helping the environment. The high-density foam insulation helps the spa maintain its water temperature for longer so minimal heat is passed outside. Also, the pump is designed to consume low energy even when operating at its optimum capacity.

Final Thoughts

The Laguna Bay Spas 5-Person 19-Jet Hot Tub is a good quality basic, small hot tub that is ideal for 3 people. Setup is a little finicky, but the technique with using wood blocks under the panel makes it much easier to place the panel back into position.

We recommend the Seascape to those who want a hot tub which has a good balance of size and features, but doesn’t require a 220v electrical outlet.

The acrylic surface of the tub is slip-resistant, so you can be confident getting in and out of the hot tub without slipping and potentially getting injured.

104 Jets

104 interchangeable, stainless steel jets are powered by a 6 HP pump so they deliver a powerful and therapeutic jet action. The jets are broken down into four different types (neck, calf, shoulder and foot) so the jets target the most important areas of your body to relax you and relieve tension.

Energy Efficient

The synthetic cabinetry system has been designed to retain heat well and the hot tub shell features high-density foam insulation, thus providing excellent insulation to keep energy bills down to a minimum.

The 2-speed pump allows you to put the hot tub into low-energy power mode while it is not being used by anyone, which is a further energy saving benefit.

Ozone System

Keeping your hot tub water clean is essential for hygiene purposes. This hot tub includes an ozonator which has been factory installed, thereby reducing the need for using lots of chemicals to take care of water maintenance.

Built-in Speakers and Sub Woofer

Chilling out in your hot tub on those long summer nights wouldn’t be the same without music to enjoy. The MP3 input allows you to connect a portable music device so you can play back your music through the two built-in speakers and sub woofer.

LED Lighting

The LED lighting feature gives you 9 color choices so there is plenty of choice to personalize your spa experience. The lighting looks particularly impressive at night, which is when you’ll make full use of it to transform the atmosphere.

Final Thoughts

The Home and Garden Spas 7-Person 104-Jet Hot Tub is a great hot tub for those who need plenty of room to fit lots of people. This is a well engineered hot tub with plenty of enticing features as well as energy saving benefits.

Amazon are currently offering free curb side delivery for this hot tub, so you don’t have the hassle or inconvenience in having to unload the spa yourself from the truck.

Florida pool products inc. - Quick Spa Portable Hot Tub 110v Review

Aero Spa Review


The Aero Spa from Florida pool products inc caters to the plug and play crowd who want a hot tub that can be setup without the cost and inconvenience of installation and doesn’t need to stay in the same fixed location.

One thing which really stands out about this hot tub is its low price. Granted, this spa doesn’t provide the same level of jet pressure as costly hot tubs do, but it’s worth a look at if you’re after an affordable hot tub that prioritizes convenience.

Read Consumer Reviews on the Aero Spa

Features of the Florida pool products inc. - Quick Spa Portable Hot Tub 110v

  • Durable construction comprising of 40 gauge PVC Vinyl and 19 gauge cloth
  • Plug & Play operation, plugs into 110v outlet
  • Portable and lightweight, weighs just 48 lbs
  • Aeration Massaging bubble system with 130 air jets
  • Cartridge filtration system built-in
  • Includes zipped thermal cover
Lightweight, Portable Design

As it weighs just 48-lbs, you can move the Aero Spa easily to a location of your choice, which is great especially if you have limited space in your garden. The use of high gauge PVC Vinyl and cloth materials ensures that this spa is sound in the durability stakes so it will last for years.

Setting up the Aero Spa

The Aero Spa is ideal for those who don’t want to hang around waiting for their spa to be installed by professionals. After removing the spa from the box, you just need to inflate it then plug it in to an 110v power outlet then wait for it to heat up. It takes approximately 36 hours to heat up to 108 degrees, which is the maximum temperature. While this is some time, it isn’t bad at all for a spa at this price point.

130 air jets

The Aeration Massaging bubble system comprises of 130 air jets. As you’d expect, the jets don’t have the same invigorating pressure that expensive hot tubs offer, but they do provide plenty of bubbles which give you a good relaxing feeling. 

One drawback is that the bubble system is quite loud as the jet emit the bubbles, but it can only be run for 20 minutes in one session then it requires a 10 minute stoppage before the system can resume.

Control Panel

A user-friendly control panel allows you to run the filter and bubble system, turn on the heater and set the water temperature. One caveat is that the temp reading is 4 degrees higher than the actual temperature so you need to bear this in mind when setting the temperature.

Built-in filtration system

A cartridge filtration system is built in to the Aero Spa, eliminating the need for an external pump. This system includes a pump to ensure the water keeps clean and crystal clear. 2 cartridges come supplied with the spa so they don’t need to be purchased separately.

Final Thoughts

The Aero Spa is an impressive portable hot tub that combines value for money with flexibility. It won’t suit those who are after an intense therapeutic experience, but it’s great for a relaxing soak.

Florida pool products are a company which stand by their spa products well, as customers who have bought this spa can attest to.

We recommend this spa for those who want a small, low cost hot tub that provides the freedom to be moved to any location and is quick to setup.

Lifesmart Rock Solid Simplicity Plug and Play 4 Person Spa With 12 Jets Review

Review of the Lifesmart Rock Solid Simplicity Plug and Play 4 Person Spa


The Lifesmart Rock Solid Simplicity Plug and Play 4 Person Spa With 12 Jets as its name implies is a 4 person spa designed to be simple to setup and operate. With its 110 volts operation, the Simplicity spa avoids the common hassle of installation costs which often frustrate hot tub owners.

Despite this spa recently just coming onto the market, there is a lot of buzz surrounding it already. Join us as we drill down into the features of the Simplicity plug and play spa and reveal whether it’s a worthy purchase.

Key Features of the Lifesmart Rock Solid Simplicity Plug and Play 4 Person Spa

  • 110 v Plug & Play operation
  • 1.5 HP pump
  • 4-person capacity
  • 12 high therapeutic jets
  • Comfort valves for attaining perfect mixture of air and water
  • Constructed with Eco thermo plastic
  • Sandstone Rock Solid shell with matching surround
  • 12-volt lighting with red/blue lens caps
  • Full foam insulation

One of the main features which draws people to this spa is the plug & play operation that ensures a no headache setup. After positioning the spa in the area of your choice, simply fill it with water (up to 190 gallons) then plug it into a 110 volt dedicated circuit outlet then finally wait 24 hours for the water to reach the desired temperature.

Seating Capacity

The Simplicity Spa features four comfortable deep bucket seats and is marketed as being able to seat up to 4 adults. However, considering its relatively small dimensions, it would be cramped with 4 regular sized adults, so we advise you to purchase this spa to be used by no more than 2-3 adults if you want adequate leg room.

High Therapy Jets

A 1.5 horsepower pump powers the 12 high therapy jets which are located in each corner of the spa. The jets do not disappoint, they provide a powerful pulsating action which gives your body a soothing, muscle massage.

Convenient Controls

One of the features we really like about this spa is the Deluxe Balboa digital controls. These topside located controls give you convenient access to change temperature, jet settings and also the interchangeable mood lighting so you can choose the level of lighting which matches your mood.

Modern, Neutral Design

Not only is the Simplicity spa a joy to relax in, it’s also easy on the eye with its Sandstone Sahara shell and matching surround which closely matches the color of most garden decking.

Full-foam Insulation

Those interested in keeping running costs to a minimum will appreciate the full foam insulation of this spa. This ensures that heat loss is kept to a minimum so the spa will retain heat well. The included thick spa cover is also energy saving efficient.

Optional Steps

As an optional extra, you can purchase matching Sahara Spa steps to make getting in and out of the spa even easier. The steps are constructed with robust Permalast plastic and come fully assembled, so no maintenance or assembly is required.

Review Summary

For its price, the Lifesmart Rock Solid Simplicity Plug and Play 4 Person Spa is a gem of a small spa and a great addition to their line-up of affordable hot tubs. It has all the features a spa owner could wish for and has the benefits of being easy to setup and relatively cheap to operate.

While the claimed seating capacity is a bit higher than we'd recommend, the Simplicity is a wonderful outdoor hot tub for 2-3 adults to relax in comfort. This lifesmart spa is highly recommended by us.
