Those with a lounger/adirondack.... question please

<< < (2/2)

Sludge Factory:
Thank you all.   Man I never thought buying a hot tub would take this much consideration.

Our tub has a lounger and it is one of the reasons we bought the tub. We both like it but I seldom get to use it as it is “Her” seat. I’m retired but she works 3 days a week so I often get to use “Her” seat when she’s at work.

Short answer is people ether love them or hate them, and you won’t know till you try some out.

Our tub is a 6 person and it is wonderful for 2 people and great for 3-4. we have had 6 in it and it is still fun but 6 people in a 6 person tub will raise the water level to the top and then some. The nice thing about over-sizing is the water level thing. That’s something I don’t see mentioned much.

Thats a great point about the water level.  I have a feeling to start there will be 4-5 people in our tub and then it will go down to where it is usually just my wife and I and the kids will get in at random times.

We are both tall people and we got a deeper tub. Because we live up north in the winter you want most of your body in the water at least until you get heated thru. The lounger does that and so does the low Captain Kirk seat with the wrist jets. The other corner seat is mid deep and the two in between the corners are a little higher but deep enough most of the year. Then there is what we call the cool down seat and it has a flat top and is the highest and also where we wanted the steps as getting in and out off that seat is best.

We move around in the tub as each seat has jets that get different spots and also different depths for how much heat you want. for the two of us I keep the tub filled to just below the head rests and when we get in the deep seats are perfect. With 4 people that water comes up a few inches more and we have a couple that join us and she is real short and two of the seats are out for her if she wants to sit.

All this is important things you will figure out when you wet test or even dry testing you get an idea where the water level will be. 

I have told others get at least 2 more seats than what you normally will need.
