Our verdict on each
Spadeluxe
Spadeluxe suits German home owners who want a fixed, high-capacity setup rather than a cheap inflatable, and it sells into DE only. It trades entry price for build quality, with 10 years of cover and seating for 7 people behind every tub.
Wave Spas Main
Wave Spas Main suits buyers who want a simple plug and play tub or inflatable with delivery included, on a low entry price. The trade-off is cover: 2 years of warranty and support on email, chat and help centre, with a company founded in 2018.

Pros and cons
Spadeluxe
Pros
- Warranty of 10 years runs well past the hot-tub median of 2, the strongest point on the page.
- Finance and included delivery together mean the €5,238 entry price can be spread with no separate freight line.
- Plug and play tubs with a heater of 3 to 5.25 kW keep commissioning work down.
Cons
- The infrared cabin entry price of €5,238 puts Spadeluxe at 22 of 25 brands on price from, so it needs justifying against cheaper shells.
- It sells into DE only, so anyone outside that market has no route to a dealer.
- Support runs on email, phone and help centre only, with no live chat in that set.
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
Spadeluxe
Who it suits
- German home owners who want a fixed shell tub with 7 people seats and a 10 years warranty behind it.
- Buyers who want tubs and saunas from the same seller, given a hot tub, swim spa and sauna range.
- Anyone who would rather spread the €5,238 outlay, since finance is available and delivery is included.
Who should look elsewhere
- Lay-Z-Spa, whose hot tub, inflatable hot tub and cold plunge range is built around inflatable formats and a cold plunge, so it suits buyers after a portable tub rather than a fixed shell.
- Saunaloft, whose hot tub, inflatable hot tub and swim spa range adds inflatable hot tubs to the same hot-tub, swim-spa and sauna core.
- Wave Spas Main, whose hot tub and inflatable hot tub range is limited to hot tubs, so the sauna and swim-spa side sits elsewhere.
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
Spadeluxe
What does a Spadeluxe spa cost to start with?+
The listed entry price is €5,238 for the infrared cabin range, which puts Spadeluxe at 22 of 25 brands on price from. Delivery is included, so the figure carries no separate freight line. Finance is available if that outlay needs spreading rather than paying in a single hit.
Where can Spadeluxe deliver?+
Spadeluxe sells into DE, and delivery is included on that route. The support team and the legal entity sit in the same country, which keeps the chain short for a heavy, bulky product. Buyers outside that market would need to look elsewhere, since DE is the only stated route.
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.
