Who should buy which
Budget-conscious buyers who want chillered convenience (and built-in heat to 104°F) but can't justify a five-figure tub, and who accept an inflatable build and some warranty downside for the lowest chillered price.
You want a rigid shell, the longest warranty (Plunge or Renu), or maximum service-network depth.
Buyers who want a chillered cold plunge as one purchase: a 110V plug-and-play tub with 1 year coverage on both tub and chiller.
You want sub-37°F temperatures, a 2-person tub, or premium cedar/metal aesthetics - see Renu Therapy or Morozko Forge.
