Nicole and I really enjoy this business because we get to use a lot of neat products and test them before they ever get to our customers. Last weekend our Spa-2-Go portable hot tub from Spa-2-Go showed up and we love it!
I suppose if you were an avid hot tub user, a portable hot tub would not be the best choice for you. But, if you are like Nicole and I and just looking for a place to relax after a day at the office (or with our three kids) the portable hot tub is an excellent choice!
It took us about 20 minutes to set up the tub. Everything we needed was in the box. The filter even came with an attachment that is used to blow it up. The portable hot tub also included a cover. Once we had it all set up we just filled it with water and let it run. We set it up on Saturday and by Sunday night it was warm enough to jump in!
I would say it is a little small for four people as the manufacturer advertises, but for two people or two adults and two kids it was perfect. There are a few tips we have though to get the best performance out of your portable hot tub.
- Set the temperature to 104. Once you turn the air on and take the cover off it starts to cool off. We were in it for 40 minutes and it had cooled down to 100 degrees.
- If your going to set your portable hot tub on a concrete patio use a product like Quick Dek over the concrete. It provides for a more attractive look, but more importantly keeps you walking on a dryer, cleaner surface.
- Keep it covered! It takes less dirt to make a small hot tub dirty.
Within the next couple of weeks we will have some before and after shots of our patio & hot tub . The before shot will show it on a concrete patio and the after shot will be after we have our new quick dek installed!
