It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a man in the dead of winter must be in want of a hot tub. Makes sense. Winter is a struggle. The sun is gone, the sleeves are long, and everyone is miserable.
But it really doesn't have to be that way. Because there are portable hot tubs. That you can actually afford.
Bestway Lay-Z-Spa Miami Inflatable Hot Tub
Price:$399
It's got a digital control panel and doesn't need tools to set up.
Conair Dual Jet Bath Spa
Price: $50
Turn any boring bathtub into a jacooz.
Intex 77
Price:$349
Thing packs up into a tiny bag. However, it does not come with those two people.
Homax 4-Person Spa
Price:$499
Inflate it right up, toss 600 liters in this bad boy, and enjoy.
Nomad Collapsible Hot Tub
Price: $1,000
This one works with wood and propane, if mixing electricity and water doesn't quite work for you. This makes it way way more portable.
Homax 2-Person Spa
Price:$399
If that 4-person Homax is a little too big, shrink it down and save water.
Lifesmart Rock Solid Luna Spa
Price:$2,218
If the whole "self-inflating" hot tub is too much for you, the Lifesmart offers a plop-down-and-plug-in tub.
Coleman Lay-Z Spa
Price:$399
The same people that brought you the classic camping lantern do hot tubs! Who'd have thunk it?!
M-Spa Model B-90 Apline Hot Tub
Price:$576
If you buy it now, you could literally be inside it in two days, if you have Amazon Prime. Whoa. Ocean backdrop sold separately.
Spa-N-A-Box
Price: $949.99
This. This is comfort.
Therapure Spa
Price:$534
Imagine being as chill as the couple above. Makes you just want to shove a screwdriver into the side of that tub and watch their relaxation turn to severe annoyance.
