Install an entire spa in your bathroom with this Energy Cocoon Tub, giving you an invigorating combination of soothing bubbles, billowing steam and an infrared sauna all in one unit the size of a regular whirlpool tub. It contains three multi-colored lamps for a bit of that soothing chromatherapy, and of course, it has those Jacuzzi-like waterjets, too. Then when you're done, you can rinse off with its hand shower.
Yep, it's got it all. Close yourself up in this baby with just your head sticking out, and emerge a while later feeling good as new. Looks like some good clean fun.

Does it use your body's natural bio-energy to fuel a massive, artificially-intelligent array of machines?
I'd pay extra for that, as long as Blondie McLeggs was my podmate.
Call me a worrier, but I wouldn't be too comfortable being in a bubbling tub with high-powered lights inches above me. How much does that thing increase life insurance premiums?
Damn you MisterSleep, I wanted to get in the first comment about the model coming with the device.
That said - it looks there's a fake person in the closed unit.
I looked at the different tubs available, and it seemed like the units are designed for petite women.
Like most tubs, men can expect to hang out both ends like a kielbasa in a hotdog bun. Don't burn your knees on the overhead lamp trying to keep your feet in the water.
I can only presume that the manual warns against prolonged and repeated exposure to certain treatments.
Bah, I still want a deluxe model built for two. :P
...Barbarella?
They don't have a 120V version. But if they did, it would draw over 30 Amps!!! That's some serious current -- and beefy wires to carry it.
I think my cats would look at it like it were a giant litter box.
Perhaps it wouldn't look so awkward if it wasn't freestanding in a bathroom? I imagine if you built a tile enclosure around it to hide the bottom half and provide a step into it, it might look a bit more normal.
If the top was removed, men might enjoy it even more. Same goes for the model, I suppose.
No Way Luke!!! I say point half bright yellow, and half bright red, then assuming you have a large bathroom, make the opening to your shower, and shower enclosure look like a giant tylenol bottle!!!! Hells yes
oops paint rather... my bad
Now if it was ONLY completely enclosed, it would remind me of the old Eighties style isolation tanks, like in "Altered States". Check out http://www.neoqi.com/index.php?p=2_3 for the full pro version of the puppy.
she does not look over 18 which makes me like the product even more...
Right, well, as soon as I find room in my apartment bathroom for this thing, I'll be sure to snatch one right up. On second thought, wait... maybe we can just sell the couch. Hell, who really needs to watch TV anyway? Now, getting it up the stairs is going to be a problem, but I'm sure I can talk the landlady into letting us cut out the window so we can bring it in via crane. Man, practicality, what would I do without you?
Does the girl come with it?? If so let me grab my debit card. I'm sure both of us could squeeze in there.
