The hottub works as expected...HOWEVER, the cover doesn't do it's job.  An amazing amount of steam/water is lost on every side of the tub, which is a huge issue for any tub, but especially one kept inside, or in the garage ( as we are/were.)   I even attempted to add waterproof 3/8 in cushioning along the edge to make a better seal all the way around...to no avail.  Very frustrating.
