TikToker @hollandpaterno filmed her husband trying out a hot tub to make sure it was the right fit before committing to the costly purchase.

TikToker Holland Smith Paterno posted a video on TikTok that showed her husband trying out a hot tub in the store before purchasing, and viewers flocked the comments to defend his actions.

Paterno documented her husband giving a hot tub a good ol' fashioned "wet test" while other shoppers in the store continued to nonchalantly browse the aisles of otherwise dry and empty tubs.


The creator added the text:

"POV: you are buying a hot tub and your husband insists on doing the 'wet test' to make sure you're buying the right one."

Her husband can be seen approaching the purchase-in-question sporting swim trunks and toting a beach towel before ultimately taking the plunge.

You can watch the TikTok below.

And several were highly amused by the tester's mid-day, mid-store submersion.

But all in all, TikTok collectively agreed the "wet test" is the only way to ensure you're choosing wisely.

Paterno hasn't responded to requests for comment yet, but we're sure she's preoccupied at the moment, given the caption of her TikTok:

“Starting off the weekend strong we are proud new hottub owners."

We hope they can soak easy knowing they made the right decision.

Trump Dragged After Making Ridiculous Claim About Randomly Finding Billions On The 'Tariff Shelf'

President Donald Trump was criticized after he claimed to reporters this week that officials in his administration suddenly found $30 billion they "never knew existed"—located on what Trump referred to as the "tariff shelf."

Tariffs are a tax on imported goods, usually calculated as a percentage of the purchase price. While tariffs can shield domestic manufacturers by making foreign products more expensive, they are also used as a tool to penalize countries engaged in unfair trade practices, such as government subsidies or dumping goods below market value.

Bride's Friends Surprise Her With Montage Video Of All Her Exes At Bachelorette Party—And People Are Mortified

While Jenny Han's novel To All the Boys I've Loved Before was a major hit, and even became a great film success in 2018, not everyone's married to the idea of reconnecting with their exes after the relationships end.

It might be nice to imagine staying friends after the relationships, imagining our exes missing us or regretting losing us, or even giving us an apology for the things they did wrong. But most of us pine for this for a little while, realize it's all a fairy tale, and push past it to better things and new love.
