Chiller seems to work great. The app you use to automate the ice bath works as intended. However the Ice Barrel itself showed up out of the box with a pin-hole in it. I have to figure out how to plug/patch it or pump it back up everyday. Kind of annoying and not what you want to have to do after spending $1400.00 bucks.

I picked up the Vital Plus Cold Plunge with the new X2 Chiller and I’m seriously impressed. For $1,400 including the chiller and barrel, it’s honestly hard to believe. I thought there had to be a catch, but after using it, I can say it works great.
Having the filter, ozonator, chiller, and Wi-Fi control all in one small unit is impressive. It cools the water a bit slower than some higher-end chillers—around 3–4 degrees per hour on the first fill—but once it’s cold, it holds the temp no problem.
My brother and I use it all the time after the sauna. It’s outside in my LA backyard on pavers, and even in summer heat it keeps the water cold. When I open the lid, I can smell the ozone, which gives me confidence the water’s clean. It stays clear for a long time.
I looked at a lot of plunge setups, even the $5k–$6k ones, and honestly I don’t think you get much more for the price. This is the best value plunge I’ve found. Five stars.

So far I am very pleased with this barrel and chiller. Giving 4 stars because I have only been using it for a week but noticed the water doesn’t get exactly to the temp it is set at or stay there. This may be due to it being placed in my garage and it being a warmer environment but I have not been able to figure it out. It also makes the water smell odd after being filtered so I am trying to get that adjusted as well, possibly with a water treatment just need to find the right one.

Awesome product overall. I'm 6'2" and can comfortably fit in it. The footprint is compact enough to tuck away neatly in the corner of my garage without taking up much space. Once inflated, it's sturdy as – no concerns about stability at all.
I will say the first one arrived with an irreparable puncture, which was a bit of a letdown. That said, the team sorted me out with a replacement without any fuss. Being in New Zealand meant there was a bit of a delay (another week or so), which I understand was out of their control, but hopefully they tighten up quality checks to avoid that happening in the future.
Still, once the new one arrived, it’s been smooth sailing. Highly rate it.
