While most hot tubs have cylindrical shapes, this wood-burning hot tub is shaped like a large bowl.
The tub stands on four legs and its unusual bowl shape makes it perfect for people who enjoy unique backyard decor. Rather than running on electricity like most hot tubs, the 'Weltevree Dutchtub' has a fire pit that is attached to it. Once the fire is set, circulation through the tubes that connect the pit and hot tub allows the water in the tub to heat up naturally. The tub is easy to move as it only weighs 165 pounds and comes in a variety of colors, including orange, gray, green, blue and red.
Wood-burning hot tubs such as the Weltevree Dutchtub are an excellent item for people who enjoy luxury items that are also eco-conscious.
