One of the more affordable inflatable hot tubs on the market today and is the best choice if you’re looking to match the aesthetic of your backyard.

Some of my favorite features include the digital control panel accessible from within the hot tub, the freeze shield, and the extremely simple set up. The freeze shield, for example, is built into the walls and protects your inflatable hot tub against below freezing temperatures. No matter how extreme of a winter you may go through, this freeze shield will ensure your inflatable hot tub stays above freezing.
To set up, all you need is an outlet and a water source. That’s right, there are no tools required to set up this portable and inflatable hot tub! Just unpack, connect the pump, make sure you have plenty of space and start pumping. It is a hand pump but should be fully inflated in less than 20 minutes. The full assembly, including filling with water, takes less than two hours. Even better, your inflatable hot tub will be hot and ready for use just a few hours after assembly.
Within this one purchase, you receive the inflatable hot tub, the pump, a filter, and an inflatable cover. Since it is so easy to assemble, is extremely durable, and weather proof for all seasons, the Helsinki inflatable hot tub is a wonderful choice for either your permanent backyard hot tub or bringing it with you on the go.
