[@WildWonderfulOffGrid]

Livin the dream!

[@LittleMountainLife]

Indeed! 😄 Seems like y’all have plenty of space at your place for one too 🙂

[@shaunsimms6244]

You record audio books, of course! Your voice is an absolute gift, I’m glad to hear it’s being recorded for others to enjoy :)

[@LittleMountainLife]

Thanks!!

[@gelwood99]

That has been on my wish list for 15 years, I hope to make it come true very soon.

[@LittleMountainLife]

It's a game changer and well worth it! Thanks for watching!

[@dugsdale]

SO HAPPY for you guys! After all the snafus, hard work, upsets, making-do, you more than earned this. Enjoy!! Looking forward to updates!

[@LittleMountainLife]

Thanks so much!

[@VisualPROPhotography]

Good for you. Enjoy!

[@JohnTellu]

Oh man, I want one - and great job on the music selection, 'Oribit' is one of my absolute favs from Josh Woodward

[@LittleMountainLife]

They are the best! Thanks! It was my first time using that tune. Thought it was a good spot to kind of feature it with vocals for a bit. Appreciate you!

[@TheMindfulHomestead]

Ballin' out of control on the mountain! I can't let Jackie see this. She'll have one on the way so quick I won't know what hit us. We have a pad and electrical already run... Just need the tub.

[@LittleMountainLife]

You know it! That’s crazy man. You have the pad and everything all set?! DO IT!

[@bryansloesshillshomestead4523]

That is a very nice gift. Hopefully you get many years of use out of it.

[@LittleMountainLife]

It really is! Thanks for watching!

[@OzarkMountainGoats]

Thanks guys we have a hot-tub coming that has been on order since January. Should get it in a month or so....I hope. Anyway nice job and looks like a great place for family to relax and enjoy. Very nice.

[@LittleMountainLife]

Thanks for watching! Awesome yall are getting one too! :)

[@livefromtheground7274]

I got one too and I feel fantastic!

[@mgweather]

Great video thank you. We bought the same model and I’m getting ready for install. How did you determine where exactly to stub the electrical? I want to be sure we position the lounge seat looking out to our view and your video really helped me see what I need to do. It also showed me the electrical connect appears to be at feet side of lounge seat. Very helpful. Back to my question: I was wondering where to have my electrical stub. Can the stub be under the hot tub so I don’t see it or it needs to be outside hot tub, right up next to tub exterior (I think that’s what you did, right?). Thx again for the great video. Enjoy!

[@jackdawson3276]

Great tub for the $. It's made by a reputable manufacturer (Watkins Wellness) so it's well insulated and is safe for the kids) probably won't last 5 years but for the money it's can't be beat. Even if you buy a new tub every 5 yrs, it's still cheaper than buying a higher end Hot Springs that can cost you 12 to 20k. Who knows, you may get lucky and get alot more years out of it..gorgeous setup! .good.luck!

[@wolfganghokenmaier]

Great video. Thanks. We are currently shopping and trying to decide between a mail order model like this one and buying a $10k tub from a local dealer. How has yours been holding up?

[@LittleMountainLife]

Still working great for us! 👍

[@tonykari5124]

I was gonna get a 10k jacuzzi brand from my dealer but my brother has had this 3700k hot tub for 5 yrs now and LOVES it. So we went with this one at 60% less money then the jacuzzi at 10k

[@sagefranetovich9034]

Thanks for the video! You two are so great.

[@LittleMountainLife]

Thanks! Appreciate you watching!

[@socalifone3044]

So now that you have your hot tub for 2 years. Does it hold set temperature with the cover off? How much did your monthly electric bill go up? Thx. Great video. 👍👍

[@MountainRoots]

Once we get the Dream AgainHQ built, a hot tub & cold tub (for muscle recovery) will be top of the list. Happy for y'all! -Josh

[@LittleMountainLife]

Thanks man! We want to do a cold tub too. :)

[@gelwood99]

@@LittleMountainLife Justin Rhodes simply bought a commercial ice machine and a stock tank and has a wonderful cold tank for his polar plunges or he uses the creek in the winter. An ice machine would also offer multiple uses instead of single-use. Food for thought.

[@bayside6207]

Google"Morozko Forge"

[@davidrobertson606]

Looks good. Water looks cloudy it should clear with time. Nice looking cat walking by. Cats may jump on top as it is warmer. You may want to put a piece of 1/4" plywood on top to protect it.

[@QCGUY]

Ahh the little things in life 👍🏻

[@LittleMountainLife]

Right?! So nicccce.

[@GideonStHelen]

Happy for you guys!!!

[@LittleMountainLife]

Thanks!

[@AS-bp2zr]

Happy for you guys! You deserve it!!

[@LittleMountainLife]

Thanks!

[@tonykari5124]

that's AWESOME. I just got the same hot tub delivered few days ago on Feb 17th & I can't wait till end of March here in Chicago so I can start using it. What did u guys put underneath the hot tub? Or is it just sitting directly on the pavers ?

[@jamesharless5357]

Very nice, I would love to have one!

[@LittleMountainLife]

Thanks. 10/10 would recommend! 🙂

[@ncruze07]

Hey, thinking about getting this very same model. Can you report back on how it's been considering it's been 2 years? Any issues? What about when it gets cold? Do you worry about pipes freezing?

[@LittleMountainLife]

We love it but it has sprung a leak somewhere. Not terribly uncommon but definitely sucks. Trying to pin point where it is to seal the spot.

[@MountainRoots]

Nice addition 👍

[@brettmiller6285]

Hey mine is delivering Monday. Is the hole for electrical already in the bottom of the hot tub frame?

[@RiverRockHomestead]

Wow! Awesome work. Respect man. DIY legend haha 👍🏿

[@LittleMountainLife]

Ha! Thanks!! 😄

[@bayside6207]

How many repairs have you had to do to your Costco brand hot tub thus far?

[@LittleMountainLife]

Haha Lifesmart But funny you should ask… calling a guy this week to fix a leak. It’s been great up until now though.

[@jznezl]

I thought this was a 110V plug and play do I have to do all that electrical stuff like burying my 110 cord coming from the hot tub

[@LittleMountainLife]

There might be a 110v version but that’s not ours. We wanted the more powerful motor/heater.

[@migueldominguez1931]

Congratulations 👏

Thank you 🙌

Showing love to a fellow Stive Triber! Can't wait to see more. Your property is amazing! So cool that you record audio books, I would like to try that sometime. How does one get into that?

[@cjd5899]

Where did u get that cup tray for above the filter? Send link please!

[@LittleMountainLife]

That came with the hot tub.

[@mildmannerededc]

Cool vid! New to the channel, happily subbed.

[@LittleMountainLife]

Thanks so much!

[@scottpigeon5013]

WHere did you find your cover holder?

[@gbmeyer85]

Why did get this model instead of the LS600 7 seater even though they are around the same price point?

[@LittleMountainLife]

Good question. We paid $3800 before tax so it was a $400 difference when we purchased. We also don't feel that we need a 7 seater.

[@Fancyisthe1]

What was that huge animal walking behind the hot tub after taking the plastic off?😮

[@LittleMountainLife]

Outside cat 🙃

[@Fancyisthe1]

@LittleMountainLife 😆 I thought it was a possum...

[@billybassman21]

Nice, what is the max temperature you can put this at?

[@LittleMountainLife]

Thanks for watching! 104 f is highest temp.

[@jesscolliflower5531]

Crazy my baby’s got the same name Audrey

[@raj3275]

Where did you get ut

[@vandalorian8777]

Put a cover over your cover. I have the same cover and the sun destroyed it in 4 years

[@LittleMountainLife]

Appreciate the tip! We aren’t super concerned with this cover’s longevity because we will eventually replace with a black one that matches the house better. Then we’ll get a slip on cover for that one. 🙂

[@MasterDIY079]

You don’t show how you do the water line

[@LittleMountainLife]

Can you elaborate? The only thing necessary for the install is hooking up electrical and fill the tub with water from a garden hose.
