Intex Purespa

Got this Spa delivered yesterday and im very impressed so far. Took Mr around 45 mins to set up but now I know what I'm doing I could probably do it in 20. The water also heated up in less than 12 hours.The only negative is the pump is very noisy when circulating the water. Will post an update in a few months but so far so good!UPDATE: 02/12/13I have had to return this item to Amazon due to a fault with the pump. Initially contacted Intex but they were pretty unhelpful. I am getting a replacement so hopefully the fault was just a one off. I will continue to post updates.UPDATE: 22/05/14I now have another problem with the replacement spa that I received. The LED display unit has failed so you don't know what temperature is set and cannot turn on the bubbles. I have contacted Intex though and they has sent me a replacement screen so time will tell whether this problem comes back again.

At first use product appeared robust and well made, but within 3 months several segments of the digital display failled to light, so temperature, fault code numbers etc became a guessing game. A replacement control tower was supplied under the guarantee so all was well for the remainder of the season.Everything was cleaned and dried as per the manual and storred in my garage in the autumn until the following spring.Put back into service this spring (2016) and within the month the led segments began to fail one by one.Intex do not want you to get in touch with them if you have problems - you must go back to the dealer, and, surprise surprise, they don't want to know. Don't expect much assistance once the guarantee has expired. (12 months)Also during cooler days in summer, the spa struggled to maintain it's temperature - so don't expect to use this outside year-round.

Wrote a second review as I don’t know how to remove my first one. He found the chlorine eventually in the box when in my previous review I gave a 4 star saying it didn’t come with chlorine.Great product, happy with it!

Our hot tub arrived within the estimated dates,any delays we were kept updated and quick at responding to any queries,we're loving it ,jets very powerful,its nice to feel very relaxed afterwards ,highly recommend this one,🙂

I write this review 18 months on, had I reviewed it immediately I would have give it 5 stars. First the lcd panel went closely followed by the tub itself which ruptured internally. Both were eventually replaced as it fell just within the 12 month warranty. Not long after the lcd control panel started playing up again but I was out of warranty, it did not affect the tub initially but then started turning itself on and off, would not let you turn the heating up or down and now has completely stopped working. I know these items are relatively cheap in the grand scheme of things but would expected it to last longer. Also despite following all instructions the filter needs changing every few days and becomes very expensive. Parts are also not easy to come by and not cheap. I will definitely be getting a new just not sure I'd get an intex one.

Great when it works but not so great when the pump breaks a month after the Warrenty expires, and I'm not the only one to have this problem. They put a shitty little plastic plate in the pump which spins round and snaps and stops the pump working. Why not just use copper? It's stronger and won't affect the magnetic casing. Absolutly appealing. Us they never have the exact part in stock, they expect you to buy a whole new pump and fit it yourself for over £100. Absolutly disgusting. And their customer services are AWFUL. never bothering with intex ever again. I'm now left unable to repair it myself and have arthritis in my spine which was why I brought it in the first place but can't even use the bastard thing now. So upsetting.

Arrived on time easy to assemble but don’t come with a gage to check pressure of ring

Great fun when it works, but a pain to balance chemicals and goes through filters pretty quick, quite expensive to run and after 14 months the display has failed so it can't be used at all at present. Its quite noisy!
