:-/Hello. I have had 2 hottubs in the past and had all of the following:yeast infections, hair color change,nail tips falling off and dead rats....and yet, here I am trying to decide which tub I should buy now ;D
My real question is this.......I do not really like the look of an above ground tub. Is it possible to put tubs in the ground and step down to them?
Thanks!

Absolutely, it's done all the time. Personally, I would only sink it 2/3 of the way into a vault rather than all the way. By leaving it 10" above ground, you can still get a cover lifter on it, keep access to the cover locks and it'll be much easier to enter/exit as oppsed to sinking it all the way down to the lip. Ask your local dealers if they ahve application pictures or search the web for some.

I would also check into a water care seminar, so we can keep the yeast infections and hair discoloration to a minimum.

Also keep in mind safety issues with below ground models. Remember Jack Nicklaus' grand son earlier this year?
