When I ordered this, the estimated shipping time was 4-6 weeks.  I was having a deck built on the back of my house; so, this was not a huge issue.  Surprisingly though, it was actually shipped in under three weeks!  They were still working on the deck when it arrived - LOL.  

This hot tub is awesome!  I am very pleased with my purchase.  It truly is plug and play.  We had an electrician install a dedicated outlet; I picked up a Clorox Spa treatment kit at WalMart; we filled the tub, plugged it in, added the chemicals and started using it the next evening.
