Handmade for Life: Why Investing in Craft Matters

"I've always been so proud that we hand make our products. It's something you really don't get anywhere else." - Andrew Horton, Founder.

At Stoked Stainless, this philosophy runs deep. From the very first tub, founders Andrew and Dan called on more than 50 years of stainless steel expertise with one simple goal: "Let's make this as good as it can be. We want to make something that lasts a lifetime."

That commitment shapes every detail of our Stoked (Plunge) Pools, Spas, Hot Tubs, and Baths. Crafted by hand here in New Zealand, this level of dedication allows us to focus our attention on precision workmanship and pride in quality, ensuring each piece is more than just a product. It's a conscious decision that, as Dan explains, "adds a layer of authenticity and we can stand behind that quality as a team." The difference shows in the details which start with high-quality materials like the 316L marine-grade stainless steel, precision welding, and North American cedar cladding that are designed to withstand the test of time.

Other imported spas may appear attractive initially, but often suffer from corrosion, fading, and premature failure. Handmade craftsmanship not only provides durability but also ensures the product becomes a cherished centrepiece of enjoyment for decades. "We have pride in our workmanship and passion in the products we make. We're about quality first." That pride translates directly into customer confidence, backed by an industry-leading 50 + 50 + 2 year warranty.

Stoked Stainless believes handmade matters. It's the difference between buying something that fills a space today and investing in a product that delivers a lifetime of relaxation and enjoyment.
