TLDR: A great temporary tub which requires some DIY in order to work properly. Quirky features, gets dirty easy, expensive cheap quality filters.
Pros:
-Affordable
-Gets Hot
- Great for short term (1-3 years)
- Low electricity bill
Cons:
- 72 hour auto shut off timer is a nightmare
- Filters are way expensive and clog within days ( they recommend cleaning after each use which is insane) I was the only one who used the tub and showered before each use.
-If you are over 5'11 do not buy this. I kept the waterline over the "max" mark in order to barely cover my shoulders. Heat seeps out of the cover this way but it was necessary
- The cover is terrible, it essentially warps with the steam over time
- The bottom of the hot tub has no insultation, do not place on cold concrete
- Bubble feature pulls in cold air
-Temp gauge is not accurate. It would NEVER show 103 degrees, only 102 and 104, for some reason the tub would stop at 102 frequently and not heat up to 104.
-The pump lines are exposed and will also need insulation
-Even with the use of bromine, the tub is extremely difficult to clean without draining monthly, I used it 2-3 times a week for 5 months and had to drain 3 times to do a deep clean.

exceeds expectations. It did come with an inflatable bit for the cover, but I'm going to do like others have done have that loose on the water with a layer of insulation board. There is a little bit of "insulation" on the bottom, I had put down a layer of interlocking gym foam, and I suggest doing that to anyone who gets this. Seriously the insulation on the bottom is like a few layers of extra PVC. Put foam down. I set it up in the morning and by that evening it was 104. The pump, heater, and bubbles can run at the same time. So I don't know if this is just a newer model of the one that had all the reviews saying none of that was true, but I do know this is specifically a 2021 model.
I used it for about an hour today, and it can go between 104 and 100 and back within minutes.It goes up faster with the bubbles off and down faster with the bubbles on. I honestly couldn't be happier with this purchase. You can also get external heaters and stuff if you want just Google "inflatable hot tub mods" I planned on doing that until I realized this version lets me heat and bubble at the same time.

How will you keep the insulation board from blowing off the top? Pics?
Take the inflatable part out of the cover, put the inflatable part right on top of the water, put the insulation board on top of that cut to the size of the hot tub, put the cover over that. There's plenty of play in the straps for the cover to let you put a good couple inches of insulation board under the cover.
Ah. Ok. What's the reasoning behind doing that?
Btw...I had two Coleman Havana's that look very much like this one. Both developed a swollen and lumpy "top ring" after setting in the hot summer sun a few days. Hope u have better luck!

It just gives it more insulation. I'll probs wrap the exposed bits of pipe in insulation too as it gets colder.
I hope mine doesn't warp, but I saw that before I bought it and knew it was a possibility. I bought it mainly to soothe my back arthritis(I'm only 40 ffs it shouldn't hurt to breathe) so I'll still use it if it's useable.
I also had a thought about the complaint about the display not showing 103°. I'm guessing this thing is natively Celsius and converts to Fahrenheit. 39°c is 102.2°f and 40°c is 104°f
I used it late last night around 60°f and the heater didn't keep up with the bubbles and dropped 2° about every 15 minutes. I may buy a cheap "portable" greenhouse to put around it in the winter, or add an on demand propane water heater like I've seen people online do.

What would interesting would be a way to blow in "hot" air rather than the cooler ambient air.
Btw...I picked up one of these vacuums from academy sports. Works well!
