Mastex Luxury Bath Spa Oxygen-Ion Whirlpool Jet Spa

The jet have enough power to push the water around on a large tub. I set it up for my wife and also setup her Kindle to stream the movie "About Time" which show a run time of 2 hours and 3 minutes. She actually watched the whole movie with this product on and running and the suction held up well even after the water has been drained.I believe that the complain about the suction is due to improper installation. One of the suction was also folded a little when I first got it out of the box same as some of the comments I have read from other reviewers but it did not give me any problem after I have it installed in the tub.Tip to have a strong suction.1. Make sure that the surface is flat and clean.2. Wet the wall and the suction prior to installing.3. Push the suction flat into the tub wall making sure that there was no air inside the suction cup. If properly installed, the suction cup should be flat and not cone shaped. If there is air inside the suction cup then it will give up with the weight of the product or when the jet turned on.Note: When you have a properly installed suction, you will not be able to just pull the jet spa from the wall. The only way to remove the suction is to peel the suction cup 1 at a time.This jet spa keeps the foam from the foam bath that my wife added in the water. I did not see any difference between the jet stream mode and the bubble mode. It seem to just push the water around at the same rate. We have it set to bubble so I guess that is what keeps the foam from the foam bath soap working the whole time but it could be the same if we leave it at jet stream mode.I did not see any cleaning procedure on the manual but after my wife's use, I clean this by filling one of my kids bucket with clean water and submerge the bottom part of this product letting it suck the clean water from the bucket and spit it out to the tub. I did this about 4 or 5 times.I left the product hanging on the wall for more than 24 hours to make sure that all the water have dripped and the filter dried up before putting it back in the box for storage. 2 of the suction was still holding up after over 24 hours of the product just hanging on the tub wall so I could say that it is built to hold the device during use.

First of all, I'm very glad that I had decided to purchase another product and return this one. When I got the product and took it out of the box, it looked like it had been used. The suction cups were dirty and there looked like dirt residue around the filter housing. Then, when I went to install the unit on my tub, the one suction cup was faulty and I had to switch the the suction cups around in hopes of getting the unit to stick, but when I replaced the retaining clips used to hold the suction cups in they didn't lock back in place! So I have the unit barely holding onto the tub. When I turned the unit on it makes the water swirl around the tub and my wife thought that it was just ok. During the return process Amazon customer service had given me a refund but told me that I could keep the item and I think I see why...not worth the postage to have it returned!

Works great

I truly enjoyed the gentle, steady stream, and relaxing movement the unit produced. I have placed the unit in several locations in the tub (front and side) to determine the best location for suction attachment and stability. Found just the right spot and it works like a dream.If you expect powerful whirlpool spa action,this appliance is not for you.This unit is peacefully quiet and provides a wonderful detoxifying bathing experience. Feels like you are bathing in a warm gentle brook or stream.You can slide the blue water jet to different positions to direct your bubble jet flow.Light your candles, put on soft music, plug this unit in and enjoy!

I was looking for something to basically push the water around in my bathtub and maybe help the bubble bath stay bubbly. It doesn't say anywhere that I shouldn't use it in a bubble bath so I tried it. It moves the water around and is relatively quiet compared to an actually spa tub. Be warned though, this isn't a powerful jet that is going to massage your back or anything. It just bubbles the water around the tub in a gentle motion. For $40-$50 bucks, I love it.One design flaw I found is that the suction cups are spaced too close together and are difficult to mount without them overlapping. One of them fell off but was easy to reattach. There is a push lock that holds the cups in place meaning in the future, I can probably replace the cups if they wear out.My biggest concern was safety. I didn't want to electrocute myself in the bathtub with this thing so I read up on this product before trying it out. The device plugs into a transformer that reduces the voltage to only 12 volts so even if the entire device falls into the water, it isn't going to hurt you. Also, the device is capable of being submerged momentarily in case it falls into the water. The instructions say to pull it out and let the water drip out before remounting and turning back on. It's that simple. It suggests to hang the device out to dry for 24 hours if it gets submerged for longer than 5 minutes but since you aren't supposed to leave this item unattended, that shouldn't be an issue. I feel this product is very safe.As I mentioned above, I used this to try and keep my bubble bath bubbly and it worked! I wondered how much it was helping and decided to test it by turning it on after letting the bubbles break down. Within a few minutes I saw impressive amounts of suds starting to mound up again.Remember, it just pushes water around and makes bubbles. If you want real bath jets, you need a professional spa tub. As long as you manage your expectations, you will like this little spa jet.
