Vanish Spa 6-person Portable Hot Tub Realtree Max5

I purchased this spa a few days ago. Instead of filling it 100% with the water hose as directed, I filled it half way with the water hose, then filled it the rest of the way with the hot water from my sink....Because it was 30 degrees outside, ( And due to this little lack of patent thing I have)....Water Temp was 78 degrees once full. The next morning it was 103, so I was in. Wonderful, works exactly as advertised. Feels Great. The good folks at VanishSpa, "Josh" was very helpful with additional accessories which have proven to be ..."Good Call"I would recommend this product to others.

As the image suggested, we set it up on the deck overlooking our pond. As soon as it inflated, we got in and enjoyed over three hours of leisure and relaxation. Unfortunately, after that first experience we have been unable to enjoy the spa again as we are unable to see it. Due to the camouflage covering, it appears to have simply vanished into the cattail reeds surrounding the pond and there is simply no way to locate it. We did recently see some suspicious-looking, wet footprints on the deck, which are very likely from a local bear family who appears to be able to locate the spa by scent and has been using it frequently. As for us, however, we are considering purchasing the blue version of this same model and installing it at our beach house so we can avoid repeating this unfortunate situation.

The nicely made camouflage wrap and cover seem a bit loose on it, and as I'm hoping it will fill out. It seems nice enough as we await the max temp for entry. Wishing the headrests were included as pictured. Needs chemicals. Still needed to drain every couple of weeks. Great for temporary set up. Not so great for keeping up and out.

My husband bought this as Christmas gift for me. We have had it up and running since 12/22/15. For starters, it takes way longer than the 12hrs the company advertises to heat up. Ours took 2 days. Next, there's an inflatable top that goes under the cover that refuses to hold air. The outer cover does not fit. It seems too big. I actually caught my foot on it as I was getting out and tripped on to the patio. This hot tub advertises that it fits 4-6 people. Not sure how these people are going to fit unless everyone pulls their knees into their chests. My husband and I are of average height and weight and have just enough room. Anymore people would be cramped. Also, the drain plug will not stay in place for some reason. The only pros to this are that you can move it easily and it's quick to fill. Not very impressed with this product.
