Wave Spa sells a smaller range than Lay-Z-Spa, with a focus on looks and on heaters built into the tub rather than sitting in a separate pump box. The range on Amazon UK splits into two kinds. The Pacific tubs are inflatable, with a woven PVC finish, an integrated heater and antifreeze protection, sold in four and six person sizes. The Como is an Eco Foam spa, with foam walls in place of air chambers, WiFi control and Freeze Shield. This guide sets them side by side on seats, outer size, wall build, freeze protection and app control, using Wave's listings. Several key figures, such as water litres and heater power, are missing from these listings, so they are marked as not stated and are worth checking in the manual before you buy.

No. 1 · WAVE
Wave Pacific 4 person: 155 cm, foam core walls
Wave's four person Pacific in a 155 cm footprint, with an integrated heater, antifreeze protection and an insulated foam core. Good for small patios.
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.
