Are hot tubs worth it?

[eclipse]

I am planning to get one. Do you use it regularly? Also I heard that they need regular cleaning, is that true?

Depends what you consider "regular cleaning". Also it depends, I would have never wanted a hot tub till the past couple years.

Personally what turns me off about them is I don't think I'd use it frequently enough to justify the extra energy consumption cost to my utilities. Now if I was sore enough that I felt I needed it every day then it'd be worth it.

Also I don't want to go outside just for a soak. Would definitely not want to in the winter. And wouldn't want to risk the potential water damage to having it inside.

From a personal stand point, no I don't think they are. I don't get the love for them. But many love them and use them a lot. My brother got one because his wife wanted one, she used it quite a bit

My parents have one. It gets used very frequently. If you keep the chemicals balanced, it doesn’t require much cleaning. You clean the filters about once a month and change out some of the water about twice a year. VERY worth it!!!

my parents in law have one. it was fun for like a month then its basically never used and requires a lot of maintenance.

I have one in my house. The first ten years I owned it I used it a lot. I sort of got away from it after a while I only used it in the winter and later I just drained it and never refilled it.

A totally pointless thing to look for, in my own world.
Why: if one must have a bath, then enjoy a spa; and keep ones home clear from a rather sparingly used item.

It’ll be worth it if it’s something you plan to use often because it will spike your hydro costs.

I have no interest in having one if I want to soak in hot water I'll just take a both or shower. Never really cared for em personally.

They are if you use them often

I wanted one and did look into it for my back but with my heart condition it was a no-go same as saunas

[Nikki1989]

They are worth it, we have two of them, one inside and one outside, but yes, they need constant cleaning.

[deus_ex_sisyphus]

jacuzzies are 100% worth it, but make sure you get one with a cover or the algae will take over

[MrDaveAPSI]

In cities where it doesn't snow or rain a lot. So, L. A. and places like that

Otherwise, no

[Sam12348]

I don't think it's needed. Just waste of space and money

[BLP11520]

I don’t have room for a hot tub but it would be nice to find out😊

[cootjuhh]

[Billlewis]

If you're home often enough, they can be.

[Metalbarbie]

[_no_one_]

[RANDOMGUY2323]

[Anonymous]
