I saw an advert the other day that B&Q were doing half price spa baths on certain ranges i think it was about £250 on top of the price of the bath, so if the bath is £200 the whole thing would cost you £450 might be worth giving them a ring 0

My mum had a spa one from B&Q, is about 9yrs old and is OK. There are some pitfalls with it: jets are in the bottom of the bath so despite blowing the remaining water out when you're finished, anything left tends to go a bit smelly. Also it blows cold air into the water so after about 5mins your bath is cold!
We bought a whirlpool bath from Wickes (Malmo Range) and is loads better than my mums spa. Jets are in the side (has 6 and is plenty) and they drain automatically when emptied. You can also isolate individual jets if its too powerful. Comes with basic taps or you can pay a bit extra for a shower mixer which is nice. As this circulates the water bath stays nice and warm.
Wickes did have the whirlpool upgrade on offer so may be worth a look. Don't forget to buy the bath panels as appropriate.
I'd avoid Homebase who are advertising theirs at a 'sale price'. A colleague of mine bought his bathroom suite and found the store blaming the warehouse who blamed the couriers when things were missing. Wickes on the other hand all plain sailing no probs. Full price was about £600, but with the offer is about £200 off I think.
The only down side with the Wickes whirlpool bath is that you have to wait the standard 3 weeks and then upto another 7 weeks as the bath is sent to a second company to be kitted out with the whirlpool. Apart from that it is well worth the wait.:idea:I got an idea, an idea so smart my head would explode if I even began to know what I was talking about:idea:0 -
