MediTub 3053LWD Walk-In Jetted Bathtub vs Ella's Bubbles Deluxe Walk-In Tub

The MediTub 3053LWD is the stronger therapy tub: 22 jets total, a 1 HP pump plus a 1 HP air blower, three speeds, an inline heater and self-cleaning air lines, all in gel-coated fiberglass on a stainless frame. The Ella's Bubbles Deluxe is acrylic, slightly larger inside, and pairs 14 hydro jets with 16 air jets plus a fast-fill faucet, but it lists no inline heater or self-cleaning air system. Buy the MediTub for more jet power and warmth; buy the Ella's Bubbles if you want an acrylic shell and a bigger basin.

• Choose the MediTub 3053LWD if you want the most jets, a heater to hold water temperature, and self-cleaning air lines in a compact 30 x 53 footprint.
• Choose the Ella's Bubbles Deluxe if you prefer an acrylic shell, a longer 46.5-inch interior, and a high-flow faucet that fills the tub faster.
