We have big plans of getting a pool and we were kind of drawn in by the guy at the barefoot spas booth. We decided to get the hot tub now, and get the pool to add to it later. The hot tubs built in to pools were too expensive, and we learned more about those too. They aren’t even that nice. Even the rep at the pool store was saying to get a hot tub too and just do it that way. We are really happy with the barefoot spa. It’s definitely high quality. Barefoot spas got a buch of really good ratings, and I can see why. We don’t use it much in the summer. Once we get the pool I’m sure we will use it more in the winter when the pool is closed.
