Best budget inflatable hot tubs

In its favour

• 669 litres is a small volume to heat, so first heat-up uses less energy than bigger tubs.
• Heater, filter, ChemConnect dispenser and inflatable cover are all listed as included.
• At 27.5 kg it is light enough for two people to carry and store.

Good to know

• The listing names a standard liner, not Bestway's tougher Tritech wall.
• No app control or freeze protection is mentioned.

In its favour

• The 155 cm footprint is the smallest here, handy on a small patio or balcony with the right load rating.
• The heater is built into the tub, so there is no separate pump box to place.
• UV protected woven PVC with a PU insulated foam core is listed.

Good to know

• Water capacity is not given, so plan chemicals from the manual.
• The bullets say up to 6 people while the title says 4, so expect it to suit 2 to 4.
