Let me add y’all look like y’all are having a ball testing out these hot tubs I’m gonna have to bring my family and friends to test out the one that I choose! Thank you for your video!
We were starting to settle on the intex purespa but then I started reading reviews on Amazon website… out of 64 reviews it had 25 one star ratings… lots of complaints on leaking, controls not working, and customer service not good… now I’m 2nd guessing it but on your video you’re giving it the overall best one to buy…
Not sure which postings your looking at but this one I’m seeing 413 reviews. amzn.to/49mIH4c If your doubtful about it, you can’t go wing with the Coleman Saluspa. It’s a smaller hot tub, but very good quality.
I chose the saluspa miami that fits 2-4 people. It had better reviews than the bigger ones. And it had 140 jets whereas others in that price range only had 120. But on Amazon it had 4.3 stars while others that looked "nicer" had less than 4 stars. Overall I'm happy with it but I've only had It a few days.
@@TubTalkReviews 26% of the 319 reviews on your link are 1-star. That's keeping me away from buying it as well. The Coleman products are not shippable to my state unfortunately. I enjoyed your video very much however.
Can you recommend me any inflatable hot tubs that arent so low to the ground but taller and with seats/benches? for 4 people minimum. can be some expensive ones. thank you!!
We just tried this one out today and absolutely love it. Is our favorite yet. We’re in the process of making the video, but this will be our new favorite in 2024 amzn.to/3uSlO9i
I've had several Intex spas and the pumps never hold up. The coleman lasted years without any issues what so ever. However, once it coded e20 we couldn't clear it. Mistakenly I purchased a CO Z tub and will see how that works.
Im going with the round intex purespa. I like the 28" wall, (i'm inside) and the options on standard water or salt type, and the remote appl. I was a longtime hard hot tub owner. Aware there is a bigger one, which if my son wants one at his house definitely would get it. but the unfilled weight of this one looks easier for me. I'm Grandma to setup the day before the kids come home. The longer time to heat doesn't bother me, I'm use to my hard tub taking a day. my tub is also inside a solarium with a gas fireplace so the room is warm. I used your link but it went to 4 person tub and I switch to 6 person. hope you still get a chance of commission. The square looks good too, but not worth the extra cost over the round. Will post back after holidays.
@@MrSlowPaper The Bubbles make it feel like a hot tub with jets, but they really do nothing. However the bubbles are very good for stirring the chemical's after you get out.
Just one additional point on the "price per size" point of the Saluspa Granada - you should also consider that it uses the same exact pump/heater as the much smaller Coleman Saluspa you featured... So it requires more water ($$$) and it's much less efficient ($$$) having to heat and pump/clean much more water and space... Meaning it takes longer to heat/re-heat that larger capcity, as well as clean it with the filter/pump.
@@TubTalkReviews You mentioned it takes "longer" to heat due to the size... I just thought I would add that it uses the same pump/heater as smaller Saluspa, so that's "why" it takes longer - and also costs more to heat, ie not as efficient as the smaller version using same pump. It's still a great bang for the buck if you need a larger spa. Thanks for the reviews!
Thank you for the great review. Just stumbled onto your channel. Easy decision to subscribe. We are looking to buy in to complement our pool. Thanks again!
We've tried out two different ones. I don't know if the bubble jets warrant the extra $$, but there are other features included that, in my opinion, make it worth it for people with a little bit extra in their budget. We just finished trying out the Saluspa Santorini and should have the video published in the next 2 weeks. We really liked it a lot, and so far, we'll probably deem it the "Best Overall Inflatable Hot Tub" on our 2024 list we'll put out later this year. Here's a link if you're interested: amzn.to/4e4eRDY
Standard electric, but super heavy. Can be set up by one person as I’ve set most of ours up myself, but it would be easier if you had an extra set of hands.
You could but I think it would take a lot of pots to actually help very much. If you can just run a hose from a tap or faucet that is hooked to your hot water heater it would probably be a lot more useful.
Out of these I’d say the Coleman Saluspa, but we’re reviewing this one right now, the SaluSpa San Francisco and it wins in terms of jet power hands down: amzn.to/3GREt7I
As far as jets like in a traditional hot tub? Inflatable’s don’t have these kinds of jets. The bubbles in the inflatable ones do provide a gentle massage, not like a regular hot tub, but we’ve been quite happy with them. While I have not tried it myself and it’s not inflatable, but is portable. I’ve been looking into this one, and this does have more traditional jets: dugfitness.com/products/oslo-by-mspa?gclid=CjwKCAjwseSoBhBXEiwA9iZtxvlPMgCBisgH7ZX_fph9fWynaun997LYVe_iVlFpDfQeHF2b0ViwSBoCZ9IQAvD_BwE
I have the Coleman saluspa, the jets do massage but just a gentle massage like he said. It's perfect for the 2 of us but could fit 4. It's pretty quiet. Easy to keep clean. Takes longer to heat up then I would like tho
That's great to hear! We're still disappointed in the Intex PureSpa Greystone because it did not come with cupholders and you have to purchase it as an add-on.
What current does it draw or pull??? The saluspa ventura that seats 8 appears to be identical to grenada. Theres no info on the current draw pkease help
@@justinstewart3248 Thanks for clarifying. Yes, a standard 15 AMP outlet will be just fine for most inflatable hot tubs. If you get into using extension cords, it's not recommended to use one. But if you do, a 10 gauge is what you'd want to go with.
We're sorry to hear that. These tubs go on sale often and the prices fluctuate based on where you're purchasing them from. Sometimes that manufacturer themselves are cheaper but Amazon usually has the cheapest prices that we've seen and better sales and deals frequently.
1 unhappy customer here. Got Saluspa tub a while ago for the lake-house but didn't set up immediately. My bad. Tub was pretty easy to set up in spite of the cryptic instructions, however the bubbler connection between the tub and motor was missing. Called company and submitted a ticket, received a human call back amazingly, but they would not stand by their product or help in any way. "Out of warranty." Cannot purchase the connection, nor will they send. They say I have to replace the entire tub liner for $150-$200 for a $2 part not including shipping at my expense. Without the connector the tub cannot be filled and the whole thing is useless. REALLY, Bestway USA? Maybe a rare occurrence, but if you purchase one, open the box and make sure you have all the parts because getting them to stand behind their product could become a costly nightmare. Sadly, we really wanted to like this product.
I’m sorry!! That really sucks a ton. Bummer they were not asked to help you out more than that. They’re good products, sorry you had such a rough time with customer service.
I have one too. 2 years old and it’s constantly throwing E02, replaced the impeller and the flow sensor and neither of it fixed it, descaled the pump and it still doesn’t work, brand new filters. Hoping I can find one that lasts awhile
The Intex PureSpa Plus was rebranded to the PureSpa Greystone Deluxe this month: amzn.to/4eDRJwm It is extremely similar to the NEW PureSpa Plus, which is just a smaller and round tub: amzn.to/3RwaAzk We are doing a comparative review here soon :)
Pump has lasted for us . And it’s been good hot tub. The complaints we see the most are with the customer service. We’ll probably be removing this from our best list in the future due to these issues.
This is how you do reviews. Honest and legit testing!!
Thank you!

How are things going with the hot tub? Looking to purchase the same one I think!! Do you still love it?
I've had 3 of them. The Colemon Saluspa was the best imo. The jets are not really jets, just bubbles and will cool your hot tub down FAST.
The Saluspa is pretty a great! For sure a top choice.
Is that a good thing? I prefer jets and a warm tub, not bubbles and a cold tub....
@@MrSlowPaperthe “jets” pull air from the outside
@@MrSlowPaper

While not inflatable the mspa oslo is still Portable and way quiter than any other plug and play hot tup ive ever seen.
We’ll have to check it out. Thanks for the recommendation!
They are close to 3k that's the difference
I love the intex inflatable hot tub pure spa plus it's great I have one
W like it a lot! ♥️

This is a valid point. I'm not sure if we mention it in this video -- but I believe we do in the full review of the Grenada. Thanks for that input!

Have you tried any inflatable hot tubs with the water jets as well as bubble jets? I was wondering if having the water jets warrant the extra $$

You're welcome, we're glad it helped and thank you for your compliment ☺
thank you for this!
You’re welcome. Thank you for watching!
Solid video. Got to the matter without the BS.
appreciate it!! That's what we're aiming for
For the heater what type of power and breaker do you need for setup. Or to run whole setup
Typically, you'll just need a 110V outlet. Most inflatable hot tubs are running 1200-1500 watts and and 110-120V maxes out between 1500-1800 watts.
How long does it take to heat the water and does it hold the temperature well?
About 24 hours, and as long as the temperature outside is above 30 F, it holds pretty well.
Are they all standard electric supply ? what about weight ? I need to setup by myself. inside sunroom
Standard electric, but super heavy. Can be set up by one person as I’ve set most of ours up myself, but it would be easier if you had an extra set of hands.
Could you just pour a few pots of boiling water in to speed up heating?
Yeah, in theory! Just pour it in the middle, not sure the heat rating on the Hot Tub material if you were to get it right on it
You could but I think it would take a lot of pots to actually help very much. If you can just run a hose from a tap or faucet that is hooked to your hot water heater it would probably be a lot more useful.
I did this and it didn’t help very much at all 😂
Not worth the extra effort
Awesome reviews
Thank you!!
I like this review - but most people are interested in the 'jets' and how they work or point when in the tub.... How come no mention of jets???
None on this list had real bubble hydro jets. Just “air jets” that come out the floor
Great reviews. Which one has the strongest jets?
Out of these I’d say the Coleman Saluspa, but we’re reviewing this one right now, the SaluSpa San Francisco and it wins in terms of jet power hands down: amzn.to/3GREt7I
Do you have a suggestion for a tub that’s suitable for 4-6 adults that has massage jets not just bubbles? Love your channel btw! ❤️

I don't get the heating times. So everytime I want to use the hot tub I have to set it up 12 to 15 hours prior?
No it’s just a power saving method if you choose to use it. You can just leave it on and you’ll be fine
@@TubTalkReviews That’s awesome. Thanks
Was that square intex the 4 person or 6 person? Theres two models
6 person. Good catch!
I have the ibiza saluspa 77inch square one which I believe should of been on the list.
We’ve tried one that’s pretty much a twin of the Ibiza, the Coleman Atlantis. It’s pretty good!
@@TubTalkReviewsare they designed to allow peopel to sit on the walls? I would like to, but afraid to.
Ps.. not a big girl😊
My intex has cup holders
That's great to hear! We're still disappointed in the Intex PureSpa Greystone because it did not come with cupholders and you have to purchase it as an add-on.
Do the others have led lights besides intex?
No but you could by some waterproof leds like these: amzn.to/468BvXe

An you clarify what current does it draw or pull? Not understanding.
@@TubTalkReviewshe’s asking how much current the unit draws. Aka can we run this off a standard 15 amp outlet?

Jacuzzi jets?????
No on this list yet, but we’re currently reviewing one that does. Stay tuned!
