We had a hot tub at our old house in Ft. Lauderdale, but when we sold our house & moved up here to Sebring 12 years ago.

The new owners wanted the hot tub.

We have been wanting one for a few years & wouldn't you know the week before Mother's Day. 

There was a hot tub expo at the fairgrounds here, 50 hot tubs on display.

If you bought one of the ones off the floor, you got a 50% discount & we received a coupon in the mail for $1000 off any hot tub Sat or Sun.

So we went to look at them & came home with this one. It's a perfect size for the two of us & it fits right in the corner of our screened in patio.

So for Mother's Day I put a Prime rib in the Lang & we just got into the tub a few times & drank a few beers & had a nice PR for dinner.

It was a good day!!

gotta keep momma happy      

but its a little warm for a hot tub in Florida isn't it ??    I have one on the deck but we shut it down in the summer and turn it on in the fall    nothing better than sitting in a hot tub in the middle of a snow storm

Nice. I was going to ask if it had a water cooling feature. Can't see sitting in 110° water on a 98° day...JJ

Al, that looks great and think of the pieces of meat you can Sous Vide now!

I like the SV idea. I couldn't imagine wanting a hot tub in Florida. Congrats on making her happy up next Al's new car!!!

That sound like a great deal, perfect spot in the shade and a great meal.

Ah, the retired life.

Awesome gift Al!  I want one even in New Orleans heat and humidity.  A hot soak in my bathtub really helps with my old bones!

Wow Al. Thats some Mothers Day gift. Miss Judy's gonna love it. I don't know about Florida hot tubbing but there's not much better than soaking in a hot tub at night at 20 below watching the snow falling all around you.

We've lived in Florida our whole lives & I keep the tub temp at 95, Judy & I are getting old & soaking in the tub even on a 95 degree day feels darn good.

When it cools down in Jan & Feb, I'm sure it will feel even better!

 Congrats Al,   We love hot tubbing also, we turn ours down to 101 - 102 in the summer times but there is nothing that beats it as Gary said in the winter 20 below and a nice light snow coming down... and maybe a beverage in hand.....

 

[Bearcarver]

Wow!!

That's a Really Neat Hot Tub, Al !!

The one I just got cost me under $400, but it's much too small to get in---It only holds about 3 gallons!!

There's nothing better than a happy smile on a contented wife.  Al, you succeeded magnificently! 

 

[dirtsailor2003]

My wife wants a hot tub too! The only problem is our house only has a 100 amp service and the panel is full.

I want a cedar wood fired tub, but the wife doesn't want wood fired... So the compromise is to go with a natural gas one. We just need to complete a few more projects and it s up next.

She got a central vacuum system with hide a hose this year. Let me tell you our floors haven't ever been this clean! Cant believe we didn't install one years ago.

 

[hardcookin]

Al nice tub!
I'm sure you and Judy will get lots of use out of that.
When I had my tub I would run it at 95 in the summer and 103 in the winter.
I used to set a beer at each corner of the tub, when they was gone it was time to get out. :biggrin:
