Buying guide to Best Inflatable Hot Tub

Inflatable hot tubs can be used inside or out depends on space limitations, contain jets and heaters just the same. There are definitely pros and cons to opting for either variation and you can read all about those here.

There is still the problem of which inflatable hot tub to pick since they vary so much in brand and features. So, we have hand-picked and compared our favourite 10 inflatable hot tubs varying in features, price and size so you can make an informed choice when purchasing.

One of the most purchased and best reviewed hot tubs on our list comes from the best-selling brand of inflatable hot tubs, Lay-Z-Spa.

It also includes a chemical floater, two filter cartridges, 7m cable and a DVD detailing set up and maintenance. For more great bathroom products see our guide on the best electric showers
