GOODLAND earns strong reviews for beautifully crafted wood-fired soaking tubs and outdoor gear that feel durable, elegant, and easy to use, with many buyers calling the tub a favorite ritual and praising chemical-free soaking and thoughtful design. Reviews also flag drawbacks: real-world heat-up times can run 3–4+ hours, fire management demands attention, drainage access is awkward, and covers leave gaps that invite debris or mice—making the experience less convenient in winter or for spontaneous use.

  • We absolutely love our hot bath from Goodland. It's now a ritual in our family. It's well designed and gorgeous.

  • Excellent quality and design.

  • Excellent customer service, great high quality hose, very pleased with my purchase from Goodland. I will be purchasing again in the near future.

  • Best hose I’ve ever owned. The brass spray nozzle is a work of art. Quality materials and much more pliable than other hoses I’ve owned in the past. I had a small issue with the delivery and their customer service was friendly and responsive. Highly recommend!

  • We LOVE our 1st class quality craftsmanship Goodland hot tub! Easy to use, easy to clean and a true added value to our outdoor experience and cabin life.

  • I've had a Goodland wood-burning hot tub for two years, and I HATE IT, especially in winter. All told, it takes about 4-5 hours to fill and heat up and more than two bundles of dried firewood. Advertisements say it takes 1.5 hours and "an armful of brush." That's laughable. It's hard to control the heat; after waiting hours, you get in, and suddenly, it's way too hot, and you have to add cold water. These are things that would be true of most aluminum wood-fired hot tubs. The things that are stupid and bad about the Goodland hot tub: -You drain it by pulling a rubber stopper at the bottom, which is underneath the backrest. Imagine this: after your soak, you left the water in because it was so much trouble, you thought, of course I'll do this again in the next couple of days to make it worth it. But a week goes by and you haven't had 6 hours at home to chill and it's getting murky. Maybe it's really cold and you know it's bad to leave the water in there if it's going to freeze. You have to take the backrest out, then take off your shirt and reach down up to your shoulder into the cold, murky water to unplug a tub stopper. The hardware broke on the first try, so you have to use pliers to get it out. A very unpleasant chore. Now we just drain it when we get out and the water is still hot. -Even with both the endcap and the cover, it doesn't fully close. There are lots of gaps for debris and especially mice to get in. Multiple times my hot tub prep has meant cleaning out mice nests, which involves taking everything out, tipping it over and scrubbing everything. I've found a dead mouse in a hot tub in my day, but this is a really nice habitat for them. -The toploading firebox kind of sucks. You're standing directly above the flames and sometimes smoke to maintain the fire, which you're doing every 15 minutes for 4 hours. I feel so duped by this $7K product. Do not buy it unless you are a professional vacation rental host. It's nicely made and feels fancy, but the function of it is bad.

  • The hot tub arrived in perfect condition. Kendra in Logistics stayed in touch to make sure that we got our delivery. The hot tub is attractive, easy to use, roomy, and solid. We got the steps, cover, ash scoop, and hand shower. A really cozy set up. Highly recommend.

  • I bought the Goodland garden hose with high expectations and I wasn’t disappointed. I have gone through a lot of garden hoses and haven’t had a hose that could last more than one or two seasons. In the longer run a Goodland h is cheaper than buying hoses that do not last or perform. I’m a believer.

  • I bought a hose from Goodland and I’m gratified if not surprised to say it’s the finest hose I’ve ever handled. The construction is durable, soft, and easy to coil. Even washing the hose off is easier than any I’ve owned before. And the brass fittings are easier and nicer to use. Goodland makes great outdoor products.

  • The Goodland hot tub has been a great addition to our home. We use it as much as a cold plunge as a hot tub! It's beautifully made, sturdy and easy to use.

  • This tub is magic. I bought this a year ago as a gift for my wife who loves soaking. I’ve never really been a fan of hot tubs so didn’t expect to enjoy it much myself, but I was totally wrong. We have loved this product. It’s incredibly well-made and has made us so happy!
