Sauna Hot Tubs

Consumer Reports just conducted a test on six different whirlpool tub models, and also included ones with air jets. Some tubs have bigger jets that force out water and a third type uses both water and air jets. Once the tubs were filled with water, testers measured the amount of force coming out of the jets. It turns out water jets give a more vigorous, concentrated massage. Air-jets are gentler, a little noisier, and they cool the water more quickly. Placement of controls was another thing tested. Controls that were located beside the hands were the most convenient, while those placed behind the bather stepped down the relaxation factor. In the end, one of the best jacuzzi tubs turned out to be the least expensive. The $750 Kohler Devonshire model K-1357, (see our recommended whirlpool bath merchants), has its controls conveniently located in the middle and the water jets give you a good massage… More on planning and buying the best whirlpool tub.
