Pros and cons
Bullfrog Spas
Pros
- Seats of 13 people give the group its largest bathing capacity, ranking 1 of 21 on the measure.
- Warranty cover of 5 to 10 years runs well past the 2 year median for hot tubs on this site.
- The range spans hot tub and swim spa, so a swim spa is available alongside a hot tub.
Cons
- Plug and play is no, so anyone hoping for a tub that needs no setup visit will look past this brand.
- Entry at $8,395 ranks 24 of 25 brands on price from, making it one of the costliest starts in the group.
- Support runs on email, phone and help centre only, with no live chat or community forum listed for owners.
Wave Spas Main
Pros
- Plug and play, delivery included and finance are all yes, so no separate delivery charge is added on top of the listed price
- Entry price of €303.95 places the brand near the top of the field on price from, with the range topping out far below the category ceiling
- Product types cover both hot tubs and inflatable hot tubs in one range
Cons
- Warranty of 2 years is short for a hot tub, and sits below the hot tub median of 2 years
- Seats max of 6 people is at the low end of the hot tub range, ranking 13 of 21 brands on that measure
- Product types stop at hot tubs and inflatable hot tubs, so a cold plunge option like Lay-Z-Spa or Almost Heaven Saunas offers is not covered
Who each suits
Bullfrog Spas
Who it suits
- Households that fill a single tub with the whole family, since seats reach 13 people.
- Buyers who rank warranty length above entry price, with cover of 5 to 10 years.
- Shoppers in the United States, CA and GB who want a hot tub and a swim spa under a single brand.
Who should look elsewhere
- Lay-Z-Spa buyers, since hot tub, inflatable hot tub and cold plunge adds inflatable hot tubs and a cold plunge to a range Bullfrog Spas covers as hot tub and swim spa.
- Saunaloft shoppers, since hot tub, inflatable hot tub and swim spa pairs a swim spa with sauna and infrared sauna models, none of which sit in the Bullfrog Spas range of hot tub and swim spa.
- Wave Spas Main buyers after an inflatable tub, since hot tub and inflatable hot tub covers inflatable hot tubs while Bullfrog Spas lists hot tub and swim spa.
Wave Spas Main
Who it suits
- Buyers who want a tub that runs straight from a standard outlet without installation work
- Shoppers in European markets who want delivery included in the listed price
- Anyone splitting the cost with finance rather than paying in one go
Who should look elsewhere
- If you want a cold plunge in the range, Almost Heaven Saunas lists one alongside hot tubs
- If you want saunas as well as tubs in one catalogue, Saunaloft carries sauna and infrared sauna lines
- If a longer warranty is the priority, the 2 years here is the weakest point

Questions about each
Bullfrog Spas
How much does a Bullfrog Spas hot tub cost?+
Entry pricing starts at $8,395. That places the brand 24 of 25 brands on price from, so the starting figure sits close to the priciest end of the group. The figure covers the range as a whole rather than a single model.
How many people fit in a Bullfrog Spas tub?+
Seats max out at 13 people, the highest count recorded among the brands compared on that measure, at 1 of 21. For scale, the site median for seating is 7, so this is a genuinely large tub rather than a couple's bath.
Wave Spas Main
How much does a Wave Spas hot tub cost?+
Prices start at €303.95 for the range, which covers both rigid and inflatable tubs. That entry point ranks 2 of 25 brands on price from, so the cheapest model does most of the attracting. Higher specification tubs in the same range cost considerably more.
What does the price include at checkout?+
Delivery is included in the listed price, so no separate freight charge is added on top. Finance is also available, which spreads the cost rather than requiring it in one payment. Buyers budgeting in another currency should check the local figure shown on the store.
