A collapsible spa unit is disclosed including a base and a peripheral wall mounted to and extending above the base. The wall includes a plurality of discrete panels that are releasably interconnected to define an enclosed area. There is a liner that extends across an upper surface of the base and across an inside surface of each panel for holding water within the enclosed area. A conduit having jets is formed through the peripheral wall and the liner for conducting water into the enclosed area of the spa. A suction line is formed through the peripheral wall in the liner for discharging water out of the enclosed area. A pump located outside of the panels, and communicably interconnected with the conduit and suction line, draws water out of the enclosed area through the suction and reintroduces water into the enclosed area through the conduit.

[ What is claimed is:] [1.] A collapsible spa unit comprising:a base;a peripheral wall mounted to and extending above said base, said wall including a plurality of discrete planar panels devoid of any outward projections and each of which has substantially flat inner and outer surfaces and means for releasably interconnecting said panels such that said panels define an enclosed area, said means for releasably interconnecting including a plurality of angled connectors, each said connector being interengaged with a pair of adjacent panels and including first means for gripping one of said adjacent panels and second means for gripping the other said adjacent panel such that said inside surfaces of said panels form an angle of less than 180 degrees;liner means that extend across an upper surface of said base and across said inside surface of each said panel for holding water within said enclosed area of said spa unit;means formed through said peripheral wall and said liner means for introducing water into said enclosed area of said spa unit;means formed through said peripheral wall and said liner means for discharging water from said enclosed area of said spa unit, said means for introducing and said means for discharging being communicably connected; andmeans for circulating water from said enclosed area through said means for discharging and back into said enclosed area through said means for introducing.
