Wouldnt bother-pain to clean-and keep clean-and you'll stop using it after a month or two....then when you do press the button to try it after a few months, a whole load of black gunk will shoot out of the nozzles and you'll be put off bathing forever.

Got one. It was a standard bath and the jets etc were fitted before the bath was installed. Can't remember how much it cost but can be done to almost any acrylic bath providing the walls are thick enough so you can't use really cheap baths.

I use mine almost everytime I bathe. Very relaxing at first but the pump noise can get irritating. Flush through with whirlpool cleaner once a month or so and avoid the grunge problem.

Get the longest bath you can. We have a double ended one so the slope at each end means I can't lie down properly without my knees sticking out of the water.

PS Use a fraction of the Radox you normally use.

They're great Ive got one....perfect after a long ride.
Mines pretty fancy anc pumps out the water from its system so it doesnt get gummed up.

I inherited one from the last owner of my house, any relaxational value it may have is negated by the fact that it sounds like an industrial workshop when it's on.

It is better if you stick on some headphones!

Got a whirlpool myself and the amount of times i've fallen asleep with it running is mental.

Just watch out when you switch it on as they usually send out a jet of cold water straight into your back! 🙂
