I used to remove them from customers homes. It was a very similar story each time. They loved it for a little while then it sat for 5 plus years used as a big outdoor table to hold other stuff on top the cover. It also is a bit pricey and a hassle to get rid of them. Most of the time I would have to cut it into 4 pieces to move the thing. I think they are a bit of a waste for most people. Mosquitos love them though.

I agree that they are a waste for most people. I have friends that have used theirs near daily going on 20 years.

Everyone i know who ever got a hot tub regretted it shortly after.

They're basically exercise bikes, but much more expensive and awkward.
