Abstract

Spa cover assemblies for use with a spa are contemplated herein. Each cover assembly is configured to pivotally couple to opposing end walls of the spa base and pivot between a closed position and an open position. Each cover assembly includes a first cover piece pivotally coupled to an end wall of the spa base, two bracket assemblies pivotally coupled to the end wall and the first cover piece, and a second cover piece pivotally coupled to the first cover piece. The second cover piece is substantially planar with the first cover piece when in the closed position and stacked on the first cover piece when in the open position. The first and second cover pieces form a shelf extending from the spa base when in the open position.
