The Wave Como moves away from air filled walls altogether. It is an Eco Foam spa, octagonal in shape and 195 cm across, with a built-in heater, Freeze Shield frost protection and WiFi control from a phone or tablet. For buyers who want something closer to a solid spa without plumbing it in permanently, that foam construction and the year round feature set are the reasons to look.

Our take
Foam walls versus air walls
An inflatable wall is mostly air, which carries heat away from the water as the night cools. The Como's foam walls, made with a durable PVC skin, are designed to hold warmth for longer, and Wave claims 50 percent more thermal efficiency. The listing does not say what the comparison is made against, so treat the figure as the maker's own estimate.
Foam walls also mean no puncture risk from the wall itself and no topping up of air pressure.
Heating, Freeze Shield and WiFi
The heater is built into the spa, with no separate pump box. Freeze Shield is described as an automatic heating feature that stops internal components freezing. Temperature can be set up to 104 °F (40 °C), and WiFi control from a smartphone or tablet lets you check and adjust it from indoors. The heater wattage is not stated.
Massage and size
The Aquajet 90 system uses 90 bubble jets. That is fewer than some generic tubs list, and there are no water jets, so buyers after a firmer massage should look at the MSpa Denver or the Bestway Santorini. The spa measures 195 by 195 by 70 cm and seats six. Water capacity is not given.
Setup is described as tool free and about 20 minutes. One bullet refers to assembling a Wave Tahoe spa, which looks like text carried over from a sister model.
Within the Wave range
The Wave Pacific 6 person shares the built-in heater idea but uses inflatable PVC walls, has antifreeze protection rather than Freeze Shield, and lacks WiFi. The Pacific 4 person is the small option. The Como is the one to buy if winter use is the main plan.
Verdict
Buy the Wave Como Eco Foam if you want solid foam walls, frost protection and phone control in a six seat spa you can still set up yourself. If hydro jets matter more than the wall type, the MSpa Denver is the better match, and if you need seven seats and headrests, look at the Bestway Santorini HydroJet Pro.
