The only hot tubs worth owning are really expensive, right? Think again. You might be surprised by how nice inflatable hot tubs can be. One to consider is the Intex Pure Spa.
Intex PureSpa Inflatable Hot Tub Review
The manufacturer: Intex calls themselves “the leader in Above Ground Pools, Airbeds and Inflatable Spas” and they can back this claim up. Their line of affordable inflatable products has a good reputation.
The hot tub has strong construction that is both durable and comfortable. The walls offer stability with a fiber-tech design made from puncture-resistant 3-ply laminated material. In fact, it’s stable enough that you can sit on top of the edge without risk of buckling or collapsing.
This hot tub can fit up to four adults, but it will be most comfortable for only 2-3 adults.
You can get a gentle massage from the bubble jets but you aren’t able to get a more high-powered massage from this spa.
Both setup and take down are fast and easy. Portability is a major selling point of this hot tub. It has carrying handles to move it around without fully taking it down and a convenient carrying case for more involved transport.
Easy maintenance is another attractive feature. The hot tub features a hard water treatment system, a system that prevents mineral buildup, and a simple replaceable filter cartridge system for keeping your spa as clean as possible. A floating chemical dispenser keeps the water balanced and safe.
