Outside of the fact that it holds water, gets hot and has jets, the Softub is unlike any other hot tub you’ve ever seen. Twenty-five years ago, a group of engineers in a small shop in LA developed an innovative take on the hot tub that is equal parts cost-effective, durable, comfortable and portable. Built with a combination of polybond foam and Leather Tex marine grade vinyl, the Softub is lightweight and small enough to roll through doors. Softub also doesn’t need construction projects like digging out your yard or pouring a concrete pad because it can be setup on any level surface that will accommodate its size. You don’t even need a special electrical equipment, since Softub plugs into any normal outlet. It costs around 50% less to run than a normal hot tub, so it’s easy on the bank account as well. If you want a hot tub, you want Softub.
