Our verdict on each
Sundance Spas
Sundance Spas suits buyers who want a full-size hot tub or swim spa rather than an inflatable, and who can handle a steep entry price with finance available to spread it. The trade-off is cost against cover, and cover wins: 10 years of warranty sits with 8 people seats.
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
Sundance Spas
Pros
- 10 years of warranty, where a typical hot tub brand on the site lists 2.
- 8 people seats, which ranks 4 of 21 on capacity.
- Finance is available, so a $17,999 purchase can be spread rather than paid in one go.
Cons
- $17,999 is a steep entry price, and price sits at 25 of 25 in the site ranking, so this is not the budget option.
- Only hot tub and swim spa, with no inflatable or cold plunge, where Lay-Z-Spa lists hot tub, inflatable hot tub and cold plunge.
- Support runs on phone and help centre only, with no email or chat channel listed.
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
Sundance Spas
Who it suits
- Households that want everyone in the water at once, since the range reaches 8 people seats.
- Buyers who plan for the long term and weigh 10 years of warranty as seriously as the price.
- Anyone shopping in the US and CA markets who wants a swim spa alongside a hot tub, given hot tub and swim spa.
Who should look elsewhere
- Lay-Z-Spa buyers after an inflatable hot tub or a cold plunge, since Lay-Z-Spa lists hot tub, inflatable hot tub and cold plunge and Sundance Spas lists hot tub and swim spa.
- Saunaloft buyers who want a sauna or infrared sauna under one roof, since Saunaloft lists hot tub, inflatable hot tub and swim spa.
- Wave Spas Main buyers focused on inflatables, since Wave Spas Main lists hot tub and inflatable hot tub.
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
Sundance Spas
What does a Sundance Spas cost at the entry level?+
Sundance Spas lists an entry price of $17,999 in US dollars. That is the starting figure for the range rather than a mid-range number, and other models sit above it. Finance is available, so the purchase can be spread across payments instead of being paid in full in one go.
Where can you buy a Sundance Spas?+
The brand sells in US and CA, which covers the US and Canada. Anyone buying outside those markets would be shopping beyond the reach of this listing, so delivery, servicing and warranty handling are worth raising with the brand before ordering.
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.
