Amen to that, brother. The Hot Spring Grandee is 500 U.S. gallons
(1,890 litres) and although it's rated as a 7 adult tub (and that's a
conservative number by industry standards), I tend to believe four is
a more comfortable number. The foot well is likely to be the critical
factor here and the Grandee is extremely generous in this regards -- I
love to stretch out in a tub without playing footsies with the person
beside me and I certainly don't want anyone's elbow in my face.

The basic cylinder, like a standard wood hot tub, makes a big
difference because you can stretch out your feet under the opposite
seat. A 5 foot tub can easily hold 6-8 people.
