I try and stay away from these questions because they're a matter of preference but, you seem to be serious and in the market for a hot tub.
Go shopping, to a store that sells nothing but, hot tubs. Stay away from these half price sales and those that have specials unless it's a store specializing in hot tubs. By name brand, not something made in Taiwan or Mexico without a guarantee or warrant.
Don't let them sell you something your not going to use. If you don't think you'll ever have a ton of people over, why buy a hot tub for fifteen people when only you and a friend will ever use it. Stay within your budget and remember, you have to take care of the water, the chemicals and the maintenance
of the tub. You can't just use it and forget it 'till next time.
An average tub will run from $ 1500.00 to $2500.00 and more. With the fences and the goodies for a nice tub and enclosure outside, you'll probably spend upwards of 5 or 6 thousand dollars. Remember outside you'll need child protections like gates, fences, insurances, etc, it can be expensive.

Can you recommend an outdoor hot tub/spa for under 2k that is decent?
Aster
I noticed sam's club has a couple, one for around $1600, member's mark brand. Anyone have positive/negative experiences with any brand/model for 2K or under? I want one just to relax, I don't need 200 jets and a pop up TV...just something small and simple and cheap.

Hey there,
Great idea on getting a hot tub. I use ours almost everyday.
For under 2K you will probably be limited to a portable hot tub which many people like. These tubs are easy to put up and use right away. If you get a permanent hot tub then you will have to pay for the installation of electrical hook up which can run anywhere from $1000 - $2000. There is a good article for you to look at below and a good website that you will find useful to help you decide.
Just remember one thing. If you go too cheap, then you often get a pretty cheap tub in many ways including quality. I wanted to get one in the price range you were looking but in the end we bought a used tub which had been returned to the manufacturer and repaired. We got it for about half the retail price just because it was used for a few months. They fixed it and resold it to us and we are extremely happy with it. We spent around $4000 plus installation. Well worth the extra cost.
Hope this helps.
Cheers.
