Hot tubs

[ChrisK]

Mate went all out a few year back spent 15k on a tub and enclosure the whole works, told me today his was great for first 6 months used it a lot, but only used twice this year and he looking to sell tub says biggest waste of money wish he never bothered.
Anyone still using theirs?

 

[Daffy]

Cost too much to run now with the fuel price hike
Know a few that have put theirs into hibernation

 

[Rubberglove]

A lot cheaper just to sit in the bath iirc

Would only have one if there was a decent chance of it being a time machine.

My cousin has just got one. I presumed it would cost a load to run.

Yep still love it about 6 year on, particularly on bitter dark winter nights after 5 a side, 2 cans, sometimes headphones on sometimes silence. Bliss.

Loads bought them over lockdown and immediately after.
Was always going to be a bubble which burst.

Do you live next door to me and sing Depeche Mode songs to your lass?

When we got ours they stated quid a day n it ended up exactly that! Likely double now. £60 a month. Need to ensure you use it n enjoy it plenty for that.

Hired an inflatable one for a weekend to see what they're like, but I hated it.

No as soon as the electricity price went up turned off.
Mind you ours was a bargain.

Is that just for days you use it, or every day?

I've had them on holiday a few times, novelty wore off, and that was in a private forest area. I think it would be more crap in a housing estate, but each to their own, my cousin seems to love it.

Winter nights superb.

Winter nights superb.

Can your neighbours see you from their upstairs window? I always thought that would be a bit odd.

Totally OT mate but Sam from KS Spraying came to see us. All sorted and booked in to the job before Xmas. Thanks again. Even better that he's also a mlf.

 

[Pint of efes]

Ours is in our shed at bottom of garden nobody can see. It’s great until you have to get out and walk back to the house

 

[Chesterladmackem]

We got a hot tap fitted outside, fills up without allvthe leccy to heat the water up.Much quicker and cheaper.
That said, doesnt get used much.

 

[Sporty]

Is it only me that then thought "Jumping Frogs" after reading the thread title?

Only a few horses.
