  • 【Large Thick Mat】Our hot tub mat is 78 inches in diameter, which can hold the round hot tub up to 77 inches in diameter. The mat can be cut into an appropriate size if you find the mat is too big. The hot tub mat outdoor is 3 mm in thickness, which absorbs the water well
  • 【Protect Your Hot Tub Efficiently】The hot tub mat will prevent friction between the tub and the floor, reducing noises, absorbing the water, and protecting your floor from moisture. You don’t need to mop the floor after bathing. Inflatable hot tub mats can also be used outdoors, like pools mat or barbecue mats, preventing your hot tub and pools from mud
  • 【Good Material】Our hot tub accessories are made of premium felt and PE material. The thick felt has strong water and oil absorption and the PE layer prevents the water and oil from efficiently, keeping the floor tidy and clean. Besides, the PE layer will grip the floor firmly, which is slip-proof and keep you safe after bathing
  • 【Easy to Clean and Store】The hot tub mat doesn’t need to wash during the use process. Put them in a ventilated place or under the sunshine, and wait for the mat to dry. You can wipe the mat with soapy water when there are some stains. Hot tub mat outdoor can be foldable when not being used, saving your rooms and space
  • 【Wide Application】Our hot tub mat can not only be used under the hot tub, but also a nice mat for an inflatable swimming pool, outdoor barbecue, and car fixing mat, which is nice for preventing water and oil. You can cut the inflatable hot tub mat into different shapes according to your needs

Last 15 to 20 years manufacturers have been able to up their game in producing durable and high-quality inflatable / portable hot tubs. These days we are also calling them affordable or cheap hot tubs because they simply give a lot more than they cost in terms of security, reliability, and as I said before, the durability of the materials and components.

With the new technology, engineers have been able to produce top inflatable hot tubs that have now genuinely become a long-term alternative to regular hot tubs that you might put in-ground in the backyard.

When it comes to the performance of the hot tubs itself, they have become comparable to the regular hot tubs at a fraction of the real cost which is usually well under $1000. They, by the way, are well worth the money if you didn’t get that so far.

Most of their internal mechanical elements such as blowers and heaters are very similar to the regular hot tubs. Just for the sake of comparison, a regular heat pump that you might find in inflatable hot tubs are about 1300 W with 460 gallon per hour water pump. This is not too far away from regular hot tubs really.

When you have similar hardware setup, you can’t expect performance to be way different. When it comes to this, I think you will be really surprised what they can do for you.
