We've just purchased a jetted one due to be installed in May 
Had an inflatable one first, lazy spa it was very good so I would say go for it. They are quite hard to find at the moment though.

Depends if you want an inflatable one, one that runs off a 13 amp socket or if you want a higher end one that runs if a dedicated 32amp breaker.
Looking at £25-£50 a month in electricity to keep warm, chemicals to keep it clean etc.
Inflatable ones are ok, just a warm bath with bubbles, upto £1k
13 amp is better but you can usually only run either the pumps or the heater, not both together. £3.5k+
32amp is great, pumps, heat, fancy lighting, built in bluetooth speakers, £4.5k+ |

Must say it's one if our best buys, a real luxury. Go for a real hard standing one you can get a second hand one for the price you pay for an inflatable type.
Got to be prepared to keep it switch on all the time or at least be well prepared as they can take hours to warn up.
We keep ours on all the time the only time it's switched off is when we change the water and clean it out which we do every 3 months or so.

Aldi or Lidl, can't remember which, do them from time to time. They're pretty good, comfortably seat 4 
Got to test one out at a fab couple's party |

I had a i-sense hot tub for 18 month, i got rid mainly it cost me a bloody fortune to run around £60 per month. Theyre fun but the novilty wears off.
If i had another id go for a midrange inflatable one that can be packed away  |
